Our Story

Chef Shannon Ramos, known to many as Bmorebestchef, is a self-taught culinary artist, food stylist, and the creative force behind Dash of Sage Catering and Pretty Plates.
Her work is defined by soulful flavor, elevated presentation, and a deep belief that food should be both beautiful and meaningful.

Shannon left the corporate world over 15 years ago to follow her passion for cooking — a decision that led her down a path filled with both unimaginable challenges and extraordinary growth.
She has cooked through seasons of homelessness, rented kitchens and Airbnbs just to keep her dream alive, and rebuilt her life more than once with nothing but skill, faith, and sheer determination.
These experiences shaped her into a chef with unmatched grit, creativity, and heart.

Inspired daily by her daughters, Saige and Siani, Shannon built her brand from the ground up, turning her love of food into a legacy project for her family.
Her upcoming cookbook, Dash of Us, honors the flavors, memories, and mother-daughter bond that fuel her work.

Whether preparing intimate dinners, luxe brunches, or large-scale catered experiences, Chef Shannon is known for transforming simple ingredients into plated art.
Her signature style blends comfort and elegance — a modern expression of resilience, beauty, and the belief that food can heal, gather, and give joy.

Today, Chef Shannon stands as a rebirth story, a woman who rose from adversity to create a culinary brand rooted in discipline, creativity, and truth.
Her mission is simple:
to nourish people with food that tells a story — her story — plated with purpose and seasoned with love.
