Meet Lauren!
If you enjoy food in any capacity – eating it, cooking it, or even just looking at pretty pictures of it, Lauren is someone you should know! After a career in Corporate Communications, Lauren decided to follow her passion for food and entertaining, and went to Culinary School, after which she never looked back. A trained chef, food stylist and writer, Lauren spent many years pre-kids on TV and publishing books. Ten years later (after a brief hiatus to move to Westport after almost 40 years in NYC), she is back at it, having launched Its Lauren Of Course, with great videos, recipes and fun content not to be missed!
Meet a Mom
Meet Elyse (of Shark Tank’s Bantam Bagels!)
If you like New York bagels, Shark Tank and/or kick-ass women entrepreneurs, Elyse is your girl! Amidst careers in finance, she and her husband Nick spent years brainstorming business ideas until one day they decided to pursue the idea of creating and selling pre-filled on-the-go bagels, and their dreams became a reality! Enter Bantam Bagels! Over the last 6 years, Elyse (and her husband) built their company (starting with a small shop on Bleecker St), had 2 boys, moved to Westport and traveled an amazing journey. After pitching their company on Shark Tank (very pregnant no less), the company truly took off, and they’ve never looked back! Bantam Bagels are now a staple across Starbucks, most grocery stores nationwide, and of course millions of households! Fun facts – Elyse doesnt leave her house without lipstick, still eats bagels every morning, and shares that her husband remains her greatest source of inspiration! We are so lucky to have you in our community, and are going out to buy bagels NOW! Thanks for changing the way we do breakfast!!
