Philippine-born-and-raised Jacqueline Chio-Lauri had lived in seven countries around the globe before she settled in the United Kingdom. Some of her most delicious childhood memories are strolls with her lola (grandma) from the city’s panaderia (bakery) at the crack of dawn—she, munching warm, freshly-baked pandesal bread and Lola, regaling her with fascinating stories. Jacqueline has worn several hats through the years. She is an anthologist, author and editor, and a former science scholar, restauranteur, teacher, sales and marketing consultant and copywriter. Above all, she is a mum. Jacqueline would like to see more books from diverse authors so everyone could read about main characters like themselves and different from themselves. Her first book is the highly acclaimed THE NEW FILIPINO KITCHEN: Stories and Recipes from around the Globe. Her second is the award-winning WE COOK FILIPINO: Heart-healthy Recipes and Inspiring Stories from 36 Filipino Food Personalities and Award-winning Chefs. In 2024, she debuted as a picture book author with the publication of MAMI KING: How Ma Mon Luk Found Love, Riches and a Perfect Bowl of Soup. Her work appears in anthologies and compilations such as Chicken Soup for the Soul: Find Your Inner Strength and Tales of Our Lives: Fork in the Road, and at Huffington Post, Epicurious, and Foodism. You can connect with Jacqueline on Facebook and Instagram @myfoodbeginnings and on Twitter @myfoodbeginning.
