ABOUT:
Nina Compton-James Beard award-winning St. Lucian chef who currently lives in New Orleans. She discovered her passion for Caribbean cooking watching her mom and granny at home. “Compton’s first restaurant, Compère Lapin, opened in mid-2015, in a hotel in the city’s trendy Warehouse District in New Orleans, showcasing the food of the Caribbean, and of her native St. Lucia in particular: seafood pepper pot, cow-heel soup, jerk fish. Her dishes were threaded through with the islands’ smoke and spice and with the ambrosial sweetness of tropical fruit, but they also borrowed freely from France and Italy, the American South, and from the flavors of New Orleans itself.”
