business world, Lana left a successful career in the software
business and enrolled in the chef program at the California Culinary
Academy. After graduating from CCA with top honors, she was chef
at Walnut Creek’s popular Secret Garden Tea Room and also
cooked at Bradley Ogden’s Lark Creek. In 1996 Lana started
her own business, which offered catering and personal chef services.
She has taught cooking classes in private homes and at B&Bs.
You may have seen one of the B&B classes in a television segment
of "Real Romance" on the Romance Classics Network.
In 1998 Lana decided to create a business that would
combine her background in customer education and her professional
chef training with her passion for cooking, teaching and gardening.
In 1999, she opened her B&B, CasaLana, in Napa Valley where
she hosts and teaches the Gourmet Retreats.
