Cooked a fabulous dinner in Santa Fe for this group and we dined al fresco! Chicken Vicki(my version of coq au vin!)
I am a creative, experienced personal chef available for holiday parties, in home meals, business breakfast and lunches, office parties, weddings(to 100 guests), meals on wheels for seniors, new mom gifts and more.
I offer flexibility in my menus, catering to the needs of the client, not the set menu of the chef. I shop daily for the freshest ingredients and best prices and pride myself on customer service, as well as great taste.
I am now offering cooking classes, private or group, your kitchen or mine, customized for your food preferences. Do you want to learn to make different kinds of soup? How about learning how to stock your pantry with all the essentials for a quick and healthy meal? Tired of your own chicken dishes-learn new ways to prepare that package of chicken. Pasta making classes are available too.

I'm not quite unbiased - Cooking Lady is my mom...However, Vicki just did a great job keeping my hungry college biology class fed during a weekend field trip to Port Aransas: two types of lasagna (chicken w bechamel sauce and more traditional marina) one night, blackened shrimp and flounder tacos with cabbage salad the next. Breakfast included scores muffins, puffed apple pancake and mexican egg scramble with great fire roasted vegetables on the side. Well planned and executed with very little left over. I couldn't be luckier. Everyone else should investigate!

A. Ask upfront for a referral -you can hear from a satisfied customer which may shorten the time it takes to make a decision.Always be honest about the number of guests at your event. The quote will be based on that number and in order for there to be a "meeting of the minds" it is good to have as close to the correct number of guests. Be specific if you are wanted special diet items, ie, gluten free, dairy free, vegan-the quote varies greatly with special diets. I am more than happy to answer general questions and inquiries, but not to give away recipes-those are my precious babies and I will teach them to you when you enroll in one of my cooking classes.
