Introduction: Great food begins with great ingredients. Each season inspires me and brings its own character to the table, always expertly prepared and beautifully presented. I’ll work with you to curate a personalized menu based on your favorite flavors, to provide you with restaurant-quality dining in the comfort of your home, or your chosen venue. If you’re planning an intimate dinner, birthday gathering, holiday party, or casual get-together with friends; hors d'oeuvres, a family-style buffet or a perfectly plated meal, I’ll take care of everything, so you can relax and enjoy yourself with your guests. I can also provide trusted professional servers and/or bartenders as part of my team.

Chef Tristan is amazing!!! He cooked for a friends birthday and customized a menu based on the birthday boy’s favorite foods. Absolutely incredible food and great vibes all around.
