I have been cooking for over 21 years, during this time I cooked in various establishments and private residences for high-profile clients. Working at home and abroad (Austria, Ireland), I have collected many ideas and recipes along the way.

My unique style has satisfied those with the most discerning palates as well as those who enjoy and appreciate good food!

World-Class Training

I have been trained at the School of Culinary Arts, Vienna, Austria, where I completed the Professional Chef Course.

More recently I obtained a Personal Chef Diploma at the Toronto Liaison College. I also hold a Food Handler Certificate issued by the Ontario Ministry of Health and am a member of the Canadian Personal Chef Association.

Local & Seasonal

Culinary Philosophy

I cook all styles of food, from North American, classic Italian and Mediterranean, through to Asian and Oriental cuisine.

I am truly passionate about using local, seasonal ingredients where possible and preparing and cooking them with care and attention, which shows in the dishes I produce.

Our Services

BBQ Catering

Up to 20 people

BBQ catering makes your event not only different but a little more special. My experience has shown that the mouth-watering aroma of barbecued food drifting across your event sets guests' taste buds alive with anticipation. Barbecuing on site means my food is wonderfully fresh, succulent and tender, sizzling hot and cooked just the way you like it.

Freezer Filling

Save time and enjoy restaurant-quality meals at home. I'll prepare a variety of delicious meals using the finest ingredients, then store them properly with comprehensive reheating instructions. Perfect for busy professionals and families who value quality home-cooked meals without the daily preparation time.

Dinner Parties

Up to 10 people

Whether you are planning an intimate dinner party for a few people, or a celebration in your home, I can cater for your needs accordingly. Together we'll plan a menu that takes care of all the details including your diet preferences. On the day, relax and I will prepare the meal, serve and cleanup afterwards, leaving you to enjoy the occasion without the stress of tending to all the details that keep you from enjoying yourself with your guests.
