About
I started cooking as a teen and always had a passion for creating delicious meals and working on a recipe until I was fully satisfied with it. I attended culinary school and decided to move into the private chef sector. My culinary endeavors have taken me all over Northern California and all the way to Iceland! With an emphasis on Mediterranean and Modern American, I enjoy showcasing seasonal fare. From meal prep delivered straight to your door to a 5 course dinner party enjoyed in the comfort of your own home, I'll bring the food to you so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy.

Chef Annalise was amazing! I wanted a special evening for my wife's birthday so I decided to hire a personalchef to come to our home and prepare a birthday dinner. Chef Annalise not only delivered an amazing 6 course meal, but she provided us with an amazing, luxurious, high end experience. We enjoyed chatting with her as she prepared and cooked the food. She served us each course and we had a wonderful evening. She even cleaned up everything when we were done. She is professional, very communicative throughout the entire process from first message through saying goodbye at the end of the evening. Again I must say that the food was amazing! We will definitely hire her again. We give her our highest recommendation!

Chef Annalise is SO good at what she does! My wife and I had the privilege of attending a private dinner hosted by her. The food was delicious - great pairings all around and so much amazing/complex flavor. She's very organized, professional, and personable. Highly recommend her for any personalchef / private event needs!!

Chef Annalise is fantastic. Her food tastes delicious, she is extremely professional, and communicates well. We asked her to cook for a 15 person event in Lake Tahoe. We did have two people who are vegetarian and one gluten and Chef Annalise was able to accommodate everyones needs. Id highly suggest to hire her for your next event.
