JEANNE WALTON
Chef, Elevated Experiences
Chef Jeanne Walton hails from the East Coast, having attended school and lived in Western New York nearly her entire life. Her culinary path began at an early age, learning alongside her Italian grandmother, and observing the proficient and capable hands of her mother, who expertly fed a family of seven and entertained with style. It didn’t take her long to jump into the world of food as she held numerous restaurant jobs while attending the University of Rochester.
Chef Jeanne honed her skills under the expertise of multiple chefs and pastry chefs in Rochester, NY while working in restaurant management and ownership, and further developed her love for preparing amazing food and entertaining in her own unique and beautiful style.
Ultimately, Jeanne perfected her areas of expertise with the creation of Jeanne’s Table, where she specializes in culinary education, specialty catering, elaborate multi-course dinner parties, and beautiful, unique charcuterie boards for special events.
Jeanne’s abilities span the culinary spectrum, but she is best known for her passion for ensuring that all creations are authentic, no artificial ingredients are used, themes are adhered to, and that local products and ingredients are utilized to the greatest extent possible!
