Looking for a home chef?
I’m currently opening a limited number of spots for ongoing private chef clients. Individuals or couples who want to eat well, shop locally, and have thoughtfully prepared food throughout the week. This is a personalized, in-home service built around your lifestyle, preferences, schedule, and the kinds of food you actually want to eat, not traditional meal prep.
Think this sounds like you? Let’s talk. I’m looking for a few long-term clients who value good food, local ingredients, and having a chef they genuinely enjoy having in their home.
let me do it for you
Guaranteed Bachelorette Party must have; completely ideal for brunch after Bourbon Street, or dinner before heading out on the town. Toast the Bride-to-Be while dining on a curated menu that satisfies all palates! Call that a NOLArette!
Hosting friends and can’t be bothered to grocery shop, let alone cook it all!? Book me to have the planning, grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning taken care of.
No party is complete without a glorious grazing spread filled with expertly picked cheeses and cured meats, beautifully arranged vegetables and fruit paired with house-made dips; delivered and set-up on site for your convenience.
Services
FAQ’s about what I do:
I work alone, I do not employ servers, helpers, or bartenders (though I know a great mobile bar service!)
I highly recommend my Dining Experience Package, which includes elegant table settings with quality dishware, cutlery, chargers, and premium disposable napkins. I’ll happily style the table using your preferred pieces or the best options available in your rental space.
Parties over 12 guests are formatted family-style to ensure quality
I prep off-site and require at least 2 hours of on-site set up for dinner parties and 1 hour for charcuterie and party foods
