Chef's philosophy
it's all about taste...
As a private chef, I do things a little differently. I start by getting to know you, and I discover what you love to eat most. I design every menu to highlight the tastes you crave and the experience you cherish. I always include some favorites, and I add some original creations to thrill you.
What is a private chef, anyway?
Working with a private chef is a whole new experience. From event planning, to design and personal touches, with hand-holding the whole way through, I am not like your typical caterer. Because your celebration is special, and you need more than everyday catering. My staff and I take care of every detail, so you and your guests feel truly pampered. Each delicious meal is prepared for you by a trusted friend. And I always keep my friends happy!
