QTC MEMBER OF THE MONTH
Tress Walker from MumsKitchensNYC
Tress Walker grew up watching her mum cook and bake in their native Barbados. She then spent her formative years in Trinidad, where she first started taking cooking classes.
Her family moved to the United States in the 1980s, and Tress quickly started reminiscing about her childhood treats, especially tamarind balls. The nostalgia led her to found MumsKitchensNY, where she makes West Indian style breads, brownies, cookies, and Grand Mama's savory codfish dish. The menu includes vegan and gluten-free items.
