WHO WE ARE
Gaby’s Gourmandise is the destination for authentic gourmet French food in West Michigan, satisfying both sweet and savory cravings with skillfully prepared delicacies. We aim to provide elevated, yet approachable, fine food.
Chef Gaby, Owner
I was born and raised in France, where I received my culinary training and completed apprenticeships at 2 and 3 Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris. I moved to San Francisco after falling in love with the city during a culinary school trip. I worked as an Executive Chef at a few different French restaurants, spent time as a tasting chef and catering manager at one of the largest caterers in the city, and then spent many years years teaching cooking classes at a school in Berkeley called Kitchen on Fire. I've loved aspects of all the work that I've done, but I enjoy connecting with people through my food the most. My wife and I got married in February 2020. We decided that we wanted to move to Michigan soon after that, to be closer to family. I started Gaby's Gourmandise with the dream of sharing my skills, my passion for authentic food, and my desire to connect with people.
Products
While Gaby's Gourmandise focuses on sweet and savory tartes, quiches, galettes, cookies, and other goodies at the Market, the product offering will be expanded based on customer interest—custom orders are always welcome.
Sourcing
We are committed to maintaining the integrity of products and support businesses within the West Michigan community. If items are unavailable locally, we will source from regional and national companies with similar ethos.

‘Gourmandise’ means eating for the pleasure of eating. That's what I hope to bring to my customers - a love and enjoyment of my food that cannot be put into words!
