Stay with us for an insightful conversation with the one and only Chef Babette—always authentic, always funny, always inspiring!

“The human body is incredibly intelligent and responds to the love you give it or not. If I don’t get my ass up in the morning and go work out, nobody is gonna do that for me. I don’t care that I’m 72. I’m on no medication. I can stand up, put my shoe and my sock on, and balance myself through the entire process. If you’re an older person, move and nourish yourself. Do it for you. We have been misled and misguided by people that don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. Along with all of the barbecue and the ribs and potato salad and coleslaw, and everybody’s sitting back piling up all this food at one sitting and wondering why they feel like crap afterwards.’” – Chef Babette Davis
