Chef in Colchester, Connecticut

Hello Local Foodies! With over 25 years of experience in the culinary industry, I am a natural-born chef, artist, and team leader who thrives in the heat of the kitchen and I love a challenge! In my career, I have worked in kitchens across the country, from private parties in Greenwich, CT to the fast paced restaurant scene in Los Angeles, CA. As a chef for hire, I offer a diverse range of culinary services including personalized meal preparation, private cooking classes, catering for special events, and menu consultation. Whether you're craving a gourmet dinner for an intimate gathering or seeking guidance on crafting a menu that reflects your unique culinary vision, I've got you covered. My culinary expertise spans a wide array of cuisines, from classic French and Italian to Middle Eastern, as well as Asian Fusion and Global Street Foods. I always emphasize my deep-rooted passion for "farm to fork", by raising and butchering poultry and maintaining a year-round garden at my home. I have also penned articles for and been featured in "Connecticut Food & Farm Magazine" and I strive to maintain relationships and partnerships with local farmers. My hourly rate starts at $50 and I am excited to collaborate with you to create unique dishes that exceed your expectations. If you're ready to elevate your dining experiences, send me a message and let's start planning your next culinary adventure!
