Welcome to Whisk In The Southern
Hi, I’m Judi Leib, and I am the founder and Chef at Whisk In The Southern. Whisk In The Southern was born from my passion for cooking, along with the infusion of my Georgia roots and southern California living into the food I make. For me, cooking has always been fun and visual. I have done it all in the food business. From attending culinary school to working in kitchens, all the way to becoming the General Manager of a classic Los Angeles restaurant. I love this business no matter what my role is! From the beginning, food has always been a big part of my life, and I am grateful to be able to share it with you here at Whisk in the Southern.

Being “Fearless in the Kitchen” is about not being afraid to fail. If you never fail, you won’t know what success tastes like. I always say, if you can read, you can cook. Try a new recipe, try a new ingredient. You’ll never know what your true potential in the kitchen is unless you unlock it, and that takes fearlessness.

Judi had such an ease in the kitchen and also in teaching. It felt as though we were right there, enjoying her company while she cooked and walked us through each and every item. She was great at explaining each step and giving informational tips along the way! Fantastic class all around.
