Introduction: My name is Makayla I am the Head Chef and founder of Mindful Kitchen. I am a private chef for weekly or daily meal prep. I also cater events that create an experience connecting people to their food and the people they care about most. I source all my ingredients from local farm venders in the Bay Area. Cooking meals from scratch with local, in-season ingredients is the basis of what Mindful Kitchen was created for. I take inspiration from French and Californian cuisine to create dynamic creative dishes.

I hosted some friends for a girls' weekend and Makayla prepared dinner for 5 of us on Saturday evening. The food was absolutely delicious. The courses were spaced perfectly so we could laugh and talk and drink wine. Everything was plated beautifully. There was a lot of variety and everything was prepared perfectly. She even cleaned the kitchen before leaving. It was so relaxing and delicious, and her personality was so sweet. Everyone asked for her contact info before the night was over.
