Hi, I’m Chef Mel, a private chef and culinary experience curator bringing intentional, organic, elevated dining to intimate spaces across California. I specialize in scratch-made, health-conscious meals that honor both comfort and creativity. From multi-course dinners to private events and curated wellness menus, I believe every meal should feel like a story - personal, flavorful, and unforgettable.
With over a decade of experience and a trusted client base in Texas, I’m now offering limited bookings while visiting California. Whether you're hosting a gathering or looking for a private chef for the week, I create tailored menus rooted in fresh ingredients, bold technique, and a warm, professional touch.

I had the pleasure of trying Mels food at my company Juneteenth celebration on Monday. Her food was great. Only complaint which was minor is her red velvet cakes were not iced and I happened to be grabbing one when she said oh no they havent been iced yet! They were still good without the icing.
Mel’s Table CA's reply
Hi Kristen thank you so much for the review. I’m sorry about the red velvets- unfortunately because it required refrigeration, I am required to ice on site! I can’t wait to serve ya again!

I used Mel for a game night I was hosting and OMG was it amazing. My guests are still raving about how good the food was! She was prompt and everything was fresh and delicious. 100/10 will definitely be booking again.
