Chef and owner of the Lamb's Table,
Jamie Snell has been involved in nearly
every aspect of the food service world  
for 18 years.

She has been a cook, hostess, server,
artisan bread baker, barista, bartender,
barback, cocktail waitress, dishwasher,

Her passion for catering began 14 years
ago in Portland. Jamie apprenticed for
two years with a small Portland catering
company called The Party Princess.  She
then embarked on starting a family and
volunteer catering  weddings and
fundraisers for friends with miniature
budgets. In 2009, realizing how  much
she enjoyed planning and preparing
special event meals, Jamie started      
The Lamb's Table.  

The Lamb's Table is the both the end
result of years of culinary adventures and
the beginning of a family legacy.

Jamie Snell lives in Portland with her
husband and their three highly
entertaining daughters.
Her husband,
Nate, is the manager at Pip's Original.
One of the extraordinary things about human events is that the
unthinkable becomes thinkable.
