We are a coffee brand that is focused on programmed events that include cafe service and espresso martini activations. LeTish coffees are sourced and roasted by a third-generation Italian family who put down roots in the iconic Greenwich Village circa 1907. From the outset, they served a diverse population of New Yorkers composed of immigrants, bohemians, and artists who gravitated towards their especially fresh coffee and inspired baked goods. Born in Brooklyn, LeTish shares the same values of family, community, and service and looks forward to preserving their story in every cup we serve. Take A Seat At The Table. .

I am a veteran pastry chef with over 25 years professional experience in restaurants. I taught in the Career Pastry Program at The Institute of Culinary Education, and was The Director for Advanced Pastry Studies. I owned and operated Whipped Pastry Boutique, a wholesale, gluten free bakery based in Brooklyn, NY.

I trained for many years in Japan, learning the traditional art of sushi-making. Currently, I work as an omakase chef at a traditional-style sushi bar in New York City. I have extensive experience in both classic Edomae-style nigiri and New York-style rolls, allowing me to bring a wide range of techniques and flavors to the sushi counter.  My passion is to share authentic Japanese sushi with the world. I hope to make sushi more approachable for people from all backgrounds and to inspire others to enjoy creating sushi in their own way, wherever they are in the world.

Since 2014, I have been a leading player at Murray's Cheese, from upstarting a popular burrata-making program to teaching public and private events. From classes that pair everything from wine and Halloween candy with cheese to nerdy, science-driven cheese 101 tastings, I aim to help people learn more about their palates. When not being cheesy, I help millions of people fall asleep with original meditations and sleep stories. Storytelling and mindfulness play a significant role in curating the interactive tasting events and I love to bring these talents together.
