Chef Laura is the former chef and founder of the Shallots restaurants[7][8]. She has training and extensive experience in both savory and pastry kitchens. After Frankel had a family and began maintaining a kosher home she found that there was nowhere in Chicago serving the quality of food that she knew she could offer. She opened her first restaurant in 1999, offering kosher fine dining with a produce-driven menu. Frankel opened Shallots NY in 2000 in midtown Manhattan[9]. In 2004, she moved her Chicago restaurant to Skokie, (a suburb with a large Jewish population outside of Chicago) and created Shallots Bistro. In 2007 Laura was appointed Executive Chef at Wolfgang Puck Kosher Catering working alongside Wolfgang Puck[10] in the famed Hollywood and Highland Kosher Kitchen in LA and as the Executive Chef at the Spertus Institute for Jewish studies in Chicago. In 2013, Laura was honored as an innovator in Modern Kosher Cuisine at Kosherfeast during the 25th-anniversary [11]celebration of Kosherfest.
Frankel has three children and one grandchild: Zachary (father of Grandson Gabriel), Ari and Jonah, who all appreciate great food.
