Carolen, Windspirit, family and crew

Windspirit and Carolen’s commitment to delicious healthy food is the main attraction and is evident on their menu. Their focus is on preparing breakfast, lunch and dinners with all local, fresh and organic ingredients. By using more local and sustainably produced fruits, vegetables, meats, poultry and seafood, the dishes they create reflect their involvement with the local community.

The garden inspired recipes of Carolen’s originate in her kitchen. Carolen grew up in Mexico City with a Oaxacan chef and nanny in her home. At a young age, she went to the markets and learnt to cook and so began Carolen’s love of Mexican cooking. She continued to increase her knowledge by attending and graduating from cooking school while living in Northern California.
