Chef Tats: Katie Leggett

Leggett's tattoo sleeve is dedicated to her love of baking.

Although it's been a while since we've featured any chef tattoos here at Eating Our Words, we couldn't resist sharing the sweet sleeve that pastry chef Katie Leggett has been working on for years.

Besides being a canvas for some gorgeous artwork, Leggett has plenty more up her "sleeve" than just tattoos: The talented pastry chef at Mark's American Cuisine won Pastry Chef of the Year in last year's Houston Culinary Awards, a category that's recognized notables like Thierry Tellier, Rebecca Masson, Ruben Ortega and Sara Brook in the past.

Enjoy additional photos of Leggett's beautiful baker's sleeve below.
