About the Boss

Heidi is the founder and owner of into the Soup and as the name  implies, she’s tends to get in the thick of things, and, um… she loves (the) soup! Heidi started her cooking career at Burger King, but let’s not go there.  She really began as a galley slave on charter boats in the Caribbean. During the next four years, she prepared gourmet and not so gourmet meals while traveling throughout the French West Indies, sailing to the Mediterranean, making a few pounds in England, and hitching rides through Africa.

Once back in the US, Heidi slung hash at a three star restaurant in northern Michigan and a dive diner in Washington state. Most recently she’s taught cooking classes to kids, taken courses herself in the good ole USA, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia; and got herself knee-deep with the American Culinary Federation.

Mission

into the Soup is all about taking a chance! Through our media channels on the web, the radio, and our events; we entertain and educate with food and travel. Because life is not a dress rehearsal.

into the Soup is about jumping in, getting involved, getting our hands dirty, and getting off the recipe page. We encourage our followers to try new things and experience life. When we travel we spend time with the locals learning about how they live and how they eat. We love the characters we meet along the way. They are the ingredients to life. In the end – as Jimmy Buffett says – “We do it for the stories we can tell.”

Additionally, into the Soup promotes professionalism in the culinary arts by promoting chefs and chef driven businesses. As part of this, into the Soup supports and promotes organizations that provide scholarships, training and jobs in the culinary arts and food service industry.

We believe that learning creates opportunity; that opportunity is the path to success; and that success is about experiencing good food, spending time with friends & family, and gaining new experiences whether they are near to home or far abroad.
