Dave Mau Private Chef and Catering

Introduction: I really enjoy working with people and love the magic that happens with the right crowd, great food and a few glasses of wine. It’s wonderful. Like I always say-“Good company is the best ingredient and pretense makes a lousy garnish”. I am a locally based Chef currently working at The Ace downtown. 20+ years experience in food and beverage. Specializing in Mediterranean, regional Mexican and mid-century American cuisines, I love what I do. Also an avid food Writer for the OC Weekly and numerous other publications I truly enjoy not only what I do but talking about it. Cooking demos, private parties, backyard BBQs, casual and formal events are things I am adept at. I also have a lot of Chef buddies who can execute any cuisine who love to jump in and help, from sushi to steaks we have it covered. Excellent people and communication skills, clean, organized and always willing to have a good time. References available upon request of course.
