My Care-full Approach:
My cooking style could be categorized as rustic, holistic, farm-to-table—rooted in seasonality, simplicity, and respect for the land. I do my best to work primarily with local organic farms, pastured meats and wild seafood. I work with all dietary needs and bodies and happily create personalized menus accordingly - this is fun for me. While every person’s preferences/sensitivities are different, food grown with pesticides and hormones affects us all, which makes organic, local, and responsibly raised ingredients my baseline. Taking this holistic approach and mixing it with indulgent flavors and exciting recipes is my passion! Let us mindfully indulge together!
My Offerings:
- PRIVATE CHEF SERVICES: Celebrate amongst friends, family or colleagues with a rustic in-house multi course farm-to-table meal cooked in your home, rental or place of work by me! I offer private chef services in the areas surrounding Port Townsend, WA. This being the Olympic Peninsula, islands north of Port Townsend, WA , and the Seattle, WA area.
- PERSONAL CHEF SERVICES: Choose delectable wellness through personalized weekly or biweekly meal delivery to your home. Take your mind off grocery shopping and what to cook - Let me take care of it. Spend more time with your family, focus on work, or simply rest. You deserve it. I offer personal chef services in Port Townsend, WA and surrounding area within a 45 minute drive.
- RETREAT & EVENT CATERING: This is where my career & passion began - offering healing, nourishing food to intimate groups with a collective intention for gathering. I am happy to offer retreat and event service locally and to travel far and wide for these single or multi day events!
- PERSONAL ASSISTANT/ OTHER: Maybe there is something else that you need support with. I offer many other personal assistant type work such as home tidying, errand running, child care / school drop off & pick up. And other services such as healthy home & toxin elimination consulting as well as professional hair cutting. Just reach out and ask! I offer personal assistant work in Port Townsend, WA and surrounding area within 45 minute drive.
- BOOK A "MORE THAN DINNER" EXPERIENCE
Make the dinner even more memorable & swim in the nourishment with the option of adding an experience that is personalized to your group. I partner with amazing local artists to bring extra fun to any group. Such as group yoga, elixir bartending, live music by a local musician, sound baths, picnic set ups, and more.
MENUS:
Menus shift depending what is in season and what your uniques group's desires are!
It ranges widely:
- from a taco bar with vegan walnut taco "meat" or grass fed beef filling and home cultured cashew sour cream or good old classic sour cream and cheese with maple candied jalapeños and other yummy toppings (and avocado key lime pie!)
- to a grass finished ribeye steak with chanterelle mushrooms, thyme and roasted garlic mashed potatoes, seasonal veg
- to oh-so-tender-and-naturally-buttery black cod fillet with seaweed infused coconut rice and summer squash atop fresh pesto
- to lemon artichoke roasted chicken thighs with all the Mediterranean fixins
- to detectible grass finished burgers with fig and bacon compote, truffle aioli, veggies, brie cheese on brioche buns or lettuce wraps
- maybe local oysters and mignonette
- or seasonal salad loaded with local wild berries, beets, goat cheese and walnuts!
wow, my mouth is watering now...

PRICING
Pricing changes drastically depending on how many people there are, what kind of menu you choose, if a server or elixir bartender is needed, etc. But to be clear, hiring a personal chef to cater your intimate group is absolutely going to cost more than eating at a local restaurant that has many more customers coming in for a non-personalized experience and able to keep cost down per person. This is a catered experience personalized to you. And I am excited to see what kind of kitchen magic I can make for you!
