I'm an
Individual
I do high end dinners at the convenience of your home for special moments such as anniversaries, birthdays, graduations, etc, and I also offer cooking lessons for groups or for individuals interested in improving their cooking skills.
I travel anywhere in Oregon and Seattle for a low fee.
My specialty is writing menus that are hyper seasonal and local. The great majority of the produce I use comes from three farms near where I live in Independence, OR.
As I present each dish I give a detail explanation of where the food came from, the inspiration behind it and its purpose in the sequence of the dishes and their relation to the wine that has been curated for that particular event.
I've been cooking professionally for 20 years and have been Executive Chef for 10 of those years at fine dining restaurants around the country and at large kitchens such as Intel Corporation and Willamette University.
My website is www.....com and Instagram handle is @chefandrepdx

Andre has catered several events for us and each time has been well prepared, informative, and delicious. For ~16-person birthday part Andre helped us customize the menu and offered a mini cooking class for our guests as he prep most of the meal in our home. Andre also catered a large work party for ~30+ people, ensuring we had a well balanced and flavorful meal. On another occasion Andre helped me host an 8-person cooking class team builder in which he customized the meal to work around some tricky dietary restrictions while walking the group through some of the fine knife skills and other preparation tips. I've been very happy with both the food and Andre's passion for cooking. It's clear that Andre loves cooking, is great at tailoring the menu to take advantage of seasonal and local ingredients, and is always super energetic. Would highly recommend.
