Introduction

I currently work as a private chef for an actress at a film set. I am a passionate cook with a hospitality degree. I took culinary and baking classes in college. I cooked for families throughout college, bartended in NYC, and started writing a food blog. I run my own business, cook for my client at the movie set on weekdays and cater private events on weekends. I also hold a WSET Level 2 Wine certification and offer wine & food pairing dinner option. In addition to my own business, I work for some of the best catering companies in NYC as an event chef. All I do is cook, bake, blog about food, and eat out to be inspired. I am a culinary volunteer at the NYC Wine and Food Festival and Napa Valley festival. I specialize in Eastern European cooking but I love to make dishes of other countries as well. My favorite cuisine is Mid-Eastern. I hold a NYS Food Handler’s License and SafeServ certification. I am also a TIPS-certified bartender.

Hired Radka based on her great reviews here. She didn’t disappoint preparing a Friendsgiving for almost 20 adults. She sent me a sample menu to review after I told her of some of the dietary preferences. She invited me to make any changes or requests. We made some small changes which she happily accommodated. We did a relaxed dinner (not formal sit down) and she brought out food as it was prepared. All guest were very “oooh, ahhh” and some of our friends are hard to please but even they were impressed with the presentation and more importantly the taste of every dish. Everything was great, her pumpkin cheesecake was incredible and the salmon I could eat every night. Couldn’t have been more pleased. If you need a private chef in Long Island she’s definitely an amazing choice.
