Secret Ingredients' Secret Table


Secret Ingredients founder, Lisa Fielding, discovered that being a full-time screenwriter and caterer was a Mission: Impossible. So in January of 2010, she hunkered down to finish several assignments with her eye on Secret Ingredients and how to grow the company as soon as she wrote "The End" on her final project. In between, she continued to cater parties and private dinners always searching for the right people to bring in to the kitchen and round out a partnership. Her earlier attempt to find a chef/partner was over before it got started so she did recognize that this person would have to share her love of food, her entrepreneurial grit and her profound work ethic.


Enter Michelle Fielding, her sister and Patricia Canale, a friend. Today, the threesome have put together a new business plan and are extremely excited to bring their individual talents to the mix and most importantly share their extraordinary cuisine with you...


Our first and most exciting venture is The Secret Table. A weekly communal dinner held at a private home where intrepid foodies and lovers of great wine can meet and eat. We promise to make this above and beyond a typical restaurant evening. When you dine at The Secret Table, you'll be able to meet a new friend, business relationship or perhaps a romantic liaison. A typical evening will include a five course meal coupled with a flight of wines. The Secret Table occurs every Saturday evening starting August 1 through October 31st, 2010. Reservations can be requested at secrettable@secretingredients.us. Instructions to pay via PayPal will follow and once your payment has been received a confirmation, menu and directions to our Mar Vista location will follow. It's going to be a lively summer.


Additionally, we will be up to our usual catering services and hope to provide you with great meals and memorable times. For catering inquiries please contact us at events@secretingredients.us. We are also providing venue services for the summer so check us out if you'd like to host a party but don't have the space. We look forward to serving you.
Bon Appetit,
Lisa
