About
MEAL PREP CLIENTS PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING! **Meal prep client pricing starts at $85+/hour plus groceries, depending on location** Hello! I'm Chef Ashley, I offer meal prepping for your daily meals, catering for events, brunch, hors d'oeuvres, small to large charcuterie boards, packed lunches for picnic parties and vegan/vegetarian/gluten free options. With personally designed menus, and hand picked ingredients, Let me take the hassle out for you so you can sit back and enjoy! I was raised on Florida's gulf coast where I worked in many variations of restaurants from Saint Petersburg, down to Boca Grande to Miami. I learned so many different styles over the years, but the most influential cook in my life was of course, my Grandmother! I was cooking with her at such a young, which made me love being in the kitchen, I learned that food brings people together and it became my passion. In 2018 I moved to Chicago for 4 years. This was when I discovered my love for being a Personal Chef.  Being able to curate personalized menus for clients and their families. Being apart of day to day events, It keeps things fun and fresh! I love being able to help ease someones day by delivering my food to your table. I decided in the Summer of 2022 it was time to be back in Florida. I packed up my Chicago apartment and headed south. Now that I'm back on the gulf coast I'm here to serve YOU fabulous food!

We had a special dinner for my family of six and the food, service, prep, cleanup, and most of all, the interaction by the chef was impeccable. You would be silly not to stop looking for a personal chef right now and make a date to have Plated Per Palate.

Details: Regular meal • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Italian • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Mexican / Latin American • Southern • Asian • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location

Absolutely Phenomenal! We reached out to Chef Ashley for a private cooking and dining experience for my wife’s parents (my in-laws) for their 60th Wedding Anniversary, at their home, and the evening and food was truly magical. Chef Ashley is an UNBELIEVEABLE Chef, she was very friendly and interactive, and her timing of plating the items was done with precision. The food preparation, presentation, and taste of our 5-course meal was nothing short of exceptional!! You will find Chef Ashley to be very responsive, helpful, and engaging throughout the entire culinary planning and cooking process. If you want an amazing 5 + Star, at home, private dining experience with an incredible Chef…you need to contact Chef Ashley- we are already booking her again for a future dining engagement this year!!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Dessert • I'm flexible • Dessert • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.
