MÅURICE…
is a culinary love story, meticulously crafted by Chef Kristen D. Murray, and it finds its essence in the intersection of her French and Norwegian heritage. Founded in 2013, named after her beloved rabbit + longtime mascot. MÅURICE is a place where flavors dance in the lightness of exquisite ingredients, and where the table becomes a canvas for stories, poetry and togetherness. This is where old-world charm meets modern day.The Journey
Kristen’s culinary journey began amidst the vibrant flavors of her great aunt’s Southern California garden. Ripe fruits, fragrant herbs, and exquisite produce were the building blocks of her earliest desserts, kindling her passion for the art of pastry. Developing a personal style takes years and years to cultivate + explore. Working in fine-dining kitchens for over twenty years helped assist in her driving force to work with small producers, to become a custodian to her partnered farms + tight knit community.
