Instructors or Guides
Elisha Herzog
Elisha Herzog began experimenting in the kitchen when she was 10, without a recipe but drawing inspiration from Benihana. She went shopping in her family's kitchen to recreate the fried rice she had loved so much the night before. Elisha now calls this technique “Something out of Nothing” or “SOON” cooking. It’s a combination of recollection, intuition, and testing/learning.
Elisha swore she’d never return to Bainbridge Island when she left for college. As it turns out, in 2015, while pregnant with her second child, she discovered her parents weren't idiots because Bainbridge Island is a great place to raise a family! She’s called it “home” ever since. See her creations on soonliving.com.
