The Journey Behind the Flavor

Chef Nancy Waldeck

Healthy Chef Partyologist Nancy Waldeck’s exuberant approach to healthy cuisine and fun wine leads her to deliver over 100 classes a year in interesting locations – from an United States embassy to corporate offices like Google, Southern Company and Norfolk Southern, from hospital wellness centers to a twice-a-month healthy cooking segment for NBC’s Atlanta and Company, from farmers markets to international conferences from 10 to 1000.

A Life Seasoned with Curiosity

Nancy loves to travel and nothing makes her happier than sharing the treasures of her explorations with others, so she hosts carefully curated wine and culinary trips around the world for small groups of curious guests. She believes cooking and traveling are two of the most rewarding (and fun!) things in life and her classes and events use food and wine to learn more about the world. At the intersection of cuisine and travel is where her expertise and passion meet, connect and result in fascinating and informative classes and tours.

She shares her knowledge to give her students the understanding and confidence to pair their food and wine.
