Babeth's Feast. My Other Kitchen.

Our origin

I discovered frozen food in France in my late 20’s. Although French people are notoriously picky about food, shopping daily at specialty shops and markets for ingredients, I noticed habits beginning to shift and that an additional stop was being made to another type of specialty shop: the frozen food store.

I had just moved to Paris, and wanted to entertain my friends at home. With an interest in food but having a busy work day, I had no time to consider preparing a full meal in the evening. Instead, I invited my friends over for drinks and began buying frozen hors d’oeuvres by the dozen to complement them. All I had to do was either let them thaw in the refrigerator, or heat them in the oven for a few minutes before serving them. At last I could enjoy the food as well as the company of my guests.

On weekends, I could experiment much more freely. Each Sunday I would shop for a more elaborate assortment of products from an amazing variety of frozen pastries, appetizers, soups, quiches, meats, pasta, desserts etc … With these at hand I was able to serve an impressive brunch buffet-style. Additionally, I was able to add a personal touch each time, and my guests never guessed the origin of my creativity; this was my best kept secret. Amusingly, my friends came to call our generous Sunday meal: “Babeth’s Feast”.

Since moving to New York, I have been unable to find a store providing the quality and variety of frozen food that would allow me to easily and spontaneously entertain friends and family at home. I did not want to be limited to calling a caterer or ordering in. Hence, after carefully sourcing excellent products, and development of my own recipes, I decided to launch Babeth’s Feast in my new home town.

Babeth’s Feast’s selection includes traditional French recipes already known in the US, as well as others which are re-interpreted in a more American way. Our line also embraces delectable breakfast items and pastries, tasteful appetizers, elaborate hors d’oeuvres, healthy vegetables, versatile sauces and spreads, mouth-watering desserts, and unique ice-creams. Whether you decide to share the secret of your masterfully crafted meal with friends or keep it to yourself, our assortment will always delight you.
