In the Kitchen

In the Kitchen

Elizabeth was a wonderful cook, creating some of the most amazing dishes in Haywood County. She was first employed at the Garden Hotel, where she was the head cook, until the operation moved across the street to the Towne House. Elizabeth also worked as a personal cook for people throughout the community. Elizabeth was very neat and clean, and never allowed people with dirty hands to enter her kitchen. She was also very secretive, as she never gave out any of her recipes.
