We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jamar Griddine. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jamar below.
Jamar , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
The Story Behind My mission is to be the Voice for Any Generation That needs to be heard, by cooking and providing something to them that people are not used to. Unconditional Love. That’s the key to life and to any dish. Create the outcome. Create the Opportunity, and Create the Moment you desire. My Mission is to make sure that anyone that comes into contact with me that they see God. That it doesn’t matter how old you are. You can succeed. and You can make it!
The reason i started the program Let’s Talk Food cooking show for kids is because kids love food. They love eating it, they love tasting the different types of cuisines cooked by me. But, it also allows me to get to know my students for who they are and it allows me to show them that with this skill they can take it and make something with it, if they choose to.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers

I have been Published in many articles, Tv interviews, and blessed to have worked underneath some Talented Chefs around the world. I started my brand in high school in 2017 when i got the chance to compete in competitions, and give back to the community which is what i am known for giving and sharing my gifts that god gave me to help others succeed. I survived a car accident 5 years ago and let me tell you because of that I know My WHY.

What i want my potential clients to know is that When you book Chef Jamar. You are booking for a Great Time. So Get Creative and call me. I can’t wait to make your day!
Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?
I would say the most effective way to grow your clientele is to keep posting on social media your food, create content, don’t be afraid to tell your story. because a lot of people in this world need to hear your voice and need to see your face. So when you do this. Make sure that you are going to give it your ALL. and remember as long as God is the Head nothing can go wrong. Don’t be afraid to show the world your light. We need more bright stars in this world. So take Risk, You may never know where you will end up.
Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
Yes, When i was 17 and working 2 jobs. and going to school to learn how to become a chef. My cousin had died, and then a week later i got into a car accident right after his funeral. During, that time, everyone kept telling that i was lucky to be alive. But, i had knew in my heart that it was more than just luck. God saved my life 5 years ago, and now at age 23 i am baptized and is a New man. so if you were to ask me ‘why I am here? it’s Because God’s got more work for me to do and more lives to touch. My word for this year is Perseverance. the ability to withstand any obstacle that comes your way.
