Meet The Vegan Chef
The Vegan Black Pinup
My name is Victoria-Lee Lewis, a Texan born and raised, though my roots trace back to the steel city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Growing up surrounded by culinary masters, the intoxicating aroma of sizzling food and the rhythmic clatter of kitchenware were a constant symphony in my life. This early exposure to the world of cooking sparked a passion in me that led me to the esteemed Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts, where I honed my skills and deepened my understanding of the art of food. However, my journey wasn't solely driven by a love for cooking. In my pursuit of a healthier life, I began to experience debilitating migraines that threatened to derail my vibrant spirit. Seeking a solution, I embarked on a vegan lifestyle, a decision that not only eased my migraines but also ignited a new purpose. Thus, The Vegan Black Pin-Up was born - a platform dedicated to showcasing the beauty, creativity, and accessibility of vegan cuisine, particularly for people of color, offering a space to celebrate our shared heritage while embracing a healthy and compassionate way of living.
