Safe Haus

Chef Cole Lawson, ‘ancestrally trained’, self-taught culinary creative from the heart of Los Angeles, California, with a zest for innovation and a passion for redefining the food narrative. Cole's journey has been a remarkable adventure shaped by diverse experiences.

Having proudly served in the US Navy, Cole brings unwavering dedication and a disciplined spirit to her culinary creations. Her time in the medical field sparked a fascination with the intimate connection between what we eat and how it affects our bodies. It's this awareness that drives her to craft dishes that not only delight the senses but also nourish the mind, body, and soul.

But Cole's journey doesn't stop there. With a background in marketing, she understands the art of presentation and storytelling, seeing every dish as a canvas to create a remarkable experience. Through her creations, she weaves the threads of her Afro-Indigenous heritage, celebrating her roots, and inviting others to share in this cultural journey. Drawing inspiration from Creole, French, Spanish, Caribbean, African, and Native cuisines.

Chef Cole's culinary passion was not only born out of her fascination with food and its impact on health but also rooted in her personal history. She didn't grow up with home-cooked meals due to an unstable household, which compelled her to teach herself how to take care of herself and her food. This experience helped her establish a personal and profound relationship with each meal she created.

As one of the visionaries behind Safe Haus, Cole is on a mission to redefine how we experience hospitality with social impact at the fore front. Her commitment to accessibility, especially for underserved communities, shines through in every aspect of her work. From intimate supper clubs, where strangers become like family, to holistic wellness workshops and beautifully crafted home goods, Cole's vision is a holistic wellness experience.
