D&W Food Centers Inc.

As the food editor and restaurant reviewer at The Grand Rapids Press, Jaye Beeler wants you to cook, eat and entertain and not get all bunched up about the details. With a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Kentucky, Jaye combines solid newspaper reporting and a passion for food. With a heady exuberance, she's savored regional cuisine from Merida, Venezuela and Sydney, Australia, to major European gastronomic cities including, London, Edinburgh, Paris and Venice. She's discovered the finest souvenirs to stuff in her suitcase are stacks of local cookbooks, kitchen gadgets and gorgeous gourmet foods from estate bottled olive oil, fruit jams, loose leaf tea to Tim-Tams, an Australian supermarket biscuit.

Many years in France made D&W Fresh Market's Wine Specialist, Roz Mayberry, a hopeless lover of good things to eat and drink. Roz, a former English teacher and professor, teaches wine classes and serves as a judge on wine tasting panels. She is the retail representative to the Michigan Grape and Wine Industry Council. Although several years as part owner/chef of "The Catered Affair" cured her of any desire to cook under stress, it did not squelch her urge to make good things to eat and serve with good wine.
