Drawing inspiration from her own childhood experiences in the far-flung port city of Vladivostok. Katerina has elevated the concept of “farm-to-table” to new heights, or rather, depths.

Fondly reminiscing about her grandmother’s nurturing care. Katerina recalled how her babushka’s breast milk provided solace and sustenance. When her own mother was absent or indifferent, usually out drinking copious amounts of potato Vodka with the local Cossacks.
