I craft memorable private dining experiences across classic and adventurous cuisines, shaped by 30+ years of catering and a client-first approach.

I bring 30+ years of culinary expertise to private dining that feels personal, polished, and unforgettable.

I’ve owned and operated catering businesses in New York and Miami for over 30 years, serving top corporate clients and creating everything from traditional favorites to more exotic, exploratory menus. I’ve also cooked alongside Julia Child, and Anthony Bourdain worked in my kitchens before he became widely known.

My work has been featured multiple times in The New York Times, and I appeared in a TV Network documentary on wedding feasts where several of my recipes are still shared. I also love teaching and sharing the stories behind the food and the experiences that shaped my cooking.

Cooking is my passion. There are two types of people in this world: those that eat to live and those that live to eat.

What you can expect when you cook with me

I cook from pure passion

Cooking is my passion, and I pour that energy into every menu—because I believe there are people who eat to live, and people who live to eat, and I cook for the second kind.

I’ve learned in demanding kitchens

I apprenticed in many kitchens, including my own, and I’ve worked with talented chefs—including Michelin-star talent—so I bring professional discipline and real-world experience to every service.

I take the time to do it right

My secret in the kitchen is taking the time to make things properly—because the details, the timing, and the care are what turn a meal into an experience.
