Chef Be Be (Beatrice Preston) is the owner/operator of Mise en Place Events & Catering (literally meaning “Everything in Place’). She is a native of San Francisco’s Bay Area where she learned early in her childhood the importance of making great meals and having family & friends to share it with. From humble beginnings, she recalls shadowing her grandparents in the tradition of hosting those who stopped by for a “Southern Conversation.” Paramount to her upbringing is the legacy of her mother, Patricia McCoy, who emphasized the importance of the family sitting down together to “break bread” as often as possible.
