The Chef

The Story

After graduating culinary school I went on to work in fine dining restaurants such as Blue Hill and Craft. From there I started my private chef business with the goal of brining restaurant quality food and service into my clients homes. My menus are based on what's in season and sourced from NYC's greenmarkets. I enjoy working with my clients to create the perfect menu for their dinner parties and events.
