A little bit about us…

At Cheque Please, our mission is to build and strengthen community through the power of conversation and food. We are dedicated to telling authentic stories about the diverse individuals who form the fabric of our city's hospitality industry. Through raw, compelling visuals, we support human-led narratives that capture the essence of these stories. Our ultimate goal is to foster meaningful connections and relationships, creating a stronger, more vibrant community within the hospitality sector and beyond. By bringing people together over shared experiences and stories, we aim to cultivate a deeper understanding and appreciation for the rich tapestry of our local food culture and the individuals who bring it to life.

Cheque Please is a platform and megaphone for voices historically excluded from the conversation.

We tell stories from within and around the hospitality industry, helping this community build longevity and sustainability in a culture often marked by burnout and competitiveness.

At Cheque Please, we aim to provide a space where anyone and everyone can feel comfortable. We stand against a status quo that has long left disenfranchised people without space to be heard or seen.

The Cheque Please lab is not only a space to cook but also a space to create without judgment.

We accept people for who they are and learn and grow as a team, regardless of who we work with.

Our goal is always to learn and share from every corner of this beautiful world and community. Cheque Please strives to pursue a new way of doing things, breaking the social norms traditionally allowed in certain spaces.

I firmly believe that no matter who you are or what your circumstances, I will always offer a helping hand if needed.
