MEET YOUR CHEF

Hi, I’m Renda Ruiz! Originally from New Orleans and now based in Lafayette, LA, my culinary journey has taken me across the globe, including time spent living in Central America and Japan. With nine years in the restaurant industry, I’ve had the privilege of learning from renowned chefs like Michael Gullota (Maypop), Manny Augello (Bread & Circus), Jeremy Conner (Spoonbill), and Ben Hererra (121, Calla, and Salt Revival). I also played a key role in the creation and opening of The James 710.

Now, as the owner and operator of Kindred Kitchen, I bring my passion for food to life through boutique pop-ups, catering, organic meal prep, interactive dining experiences, and chef retreats worldwide. I believe in engaging all the senses, crafting bold, transportive flavors, and creating culinary moments that bring people closer together. Sourcing locally, using organic ingredients, and practicing sustainability are at the heart of my philosophy, ensuring that every dish not only delights but also respects our planet.
