About

Hello, I'm Aaron! Although I'm new to Thumbtack, I've been in the culinary industry for 20 years. As a young chef just starting out, I earned Certification in Culinary Arts from the Southwest Area Career Center in MIssouri, as well as The Wilton Method Basic Cake Decorating Certification. I've worked in a variety of settings: From corporate chains to my own restaurant (which was a great success, but after a life-changing surgery I wanted to get back to Texas!!) and I am now focusing on creating special moments for your important events, opposed to a full-time gig that repeats daily. Most of my learning and development have come with inspiration, practice and experience. My focus is in true scratch cooking, using the highest quality ingredients available. So much of our food supply is full of chemicals and filler products instead of healthy foods. Taking the time and effort to make healthier foods for my clients is my passion. I love creating foods that are not only better for us, but that take flavor to a whole new level. I am proud to specialize and offer high-end private dining experiences, bringing bespoke, gourmet meals to a variety of events.

My wife and I had a spur of the moment trip to Wimberley for the weekend and I decided to see if I could find a personal chef that could come to our room. And WOW ... am I pleased that I found Aaron! His food, attention to detail, thoughtfulness, engaging personality, and cooking abilities are second-to-none. His Chicken Piccata, Lobster Bisque, Chocolate Bourbon Cake, Caprese Salad, and his Cinnamon rolls are all made from scratch and are simply the BEST I have ever had. When I am ever close to San Marcos again, I am hiring Aaron again!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 2 guests • Dinner • Dessert • Premium (high end ingredients) • Dessert • Cold beverages (non-alcoholic) • Hot beverages (coffee, tea, etc.) • Italian • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Aaron is a fantastic cook. His meals are packed with flavor in every bite. His dishes are only prepared with the very best ingredients. Extremely professional and his presentation is superb. You can't go wrong with Chef Aaron.

I have had the pleasure to enjoy several dishes prepared by Aaron at Three Bridges. He can turn something as simple as an omelette or other breakfast staple into a wonderful experience for your tastebuds. His chicken and steak dinners are just as spectacular. We began getting Aaron's dinners during Covid and continued until we lost him back to Texas. You won't be disappointed with Aaron's skills. If you're extremely lucky maybe he will make you a few cinnamon rolls for dessert.

Thank you for your kind review, Rich! It was always a pleasure serving you and your family!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For smaller gatherings, 10 or fewer people, prices start at $50 per plate plus food costs. Larger gatherings will reap some savings, as food costs typically shrink with larger volume purchases.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Let me know your ideas for your meal! I've been at this a while, so the menus I can prepare are quite vast and varied. We can work together to come up with the perfect menu. Be sure to let me know of any food allergies so everyone involved has the best possible experience.
