We had the good fortune of connecting with Chef Jamar Griddine and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Chef Jamar, what do you think makes you most happy? Why?
What makes Chef Griddine Happy is the fact I get to see my whole family for the holidays. Especially my Great-Grandmas and Grandparents. Every year my family has this Christmas tradition and we get together for breakfast at 6am-12pm. From Biscuits and gravy to Roasted potatoes w/ onions and bell peppers to crispy bacon. Yummy!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
How I got to where I am today is because of God. Was it easy, No! Nothing is ever easy especially if you just want as bad as the next person. It’s All about that Next Level. I overcame challenges by praying and asking God to me Grace, and Mercy everyday I get up because I know tomorrow’s not promised. Plus, the one thing my grandma taught me was how to have Perseverance and Faith. My Grandpa taught me discipline. What I want the world to know is that I AM HERE! Chef Jamar Griddine is HERE! This is my Come back season!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Over the years I’ve recognized God, The Lord and Jesus Christ, my mom and Family. So this one going to be Dedicated to me and America. Sometimes in life we forget to recognize our selfs and that’s where I fall short. I also want to recognize the world for being strong through all the trails and tribulations we faced as a whole. Don’t back down from who you are. Embrace you!
