A CHEF FOR 10 YEARS
A HOBBIEST FOR 20 YEARS
I'm Chef Kia, a professional with five years of restaurant experience, and another five years running a small on-site catering business. I have had a passion for cooking and good food since my mid teens,
and turned it into my profession shortly after graduating high school.
Recently I have entered into the role of personal chef for hire; taking on smaller, more intimate jobs
in preparing meals in-home and setting out gourmet prepared meals for clients who don't have the
time to cook for themselves. Let me be your guide on a new culinary adventure today.
MY DISCIPLINES ARE ITALIAN & FRENCH
But my formal training is hardly the limit of my passion; which includes a wide array of dishes spanning Persian, Mediterranean, Indian and more classic Western fare. Whatever your tastes are, it's likely I have a recipe that will tantalize your palate.
From live pasta bars, to backyard BBQs, to formal dinners; see what a professional touch can do for your next intimate gathering. Or try a weekly menu prepared for you and frozen in ready to heat & eat portions that not only save you time and money; but provide healthier options than takeout.
I HAVE WORKED & CONSULTED ABROAD
Within my resumé as a chef, I have been fortunate enough to learn and consult abroad; widening my culinary horizons. Swapping recipes and techniques with other professionals half-a-world away has given me a chance to learn dishes and techniques I otherwise would have missed out on.
Providing consultation to major hotels on my formal disciplines is also a mark of my expertise in the field of French and Italian cuisine. Let my expertize work for you in crafting you an exquisite dining experience you'll never forget.
I guarantee you will have a memorable, one-of-a-kind experience with me working at your side.
LET ME TEACH YOU!
Alongside personal chef services and catering, I also offer cooking lessons for those who want to take their kitchen-craft to new levels. I come into your home at your convenience and pass on my knowledge and techniques for those who share the passion for cooking.
I take lessons at your pace, showing you how to cook like a pro; from reading your mise en place; to proper knife technique and even how to source hard-to-find ingredients (or even substituting them for more readily available ones).
I tailor lessons to your needs; whether it serious culinary training or a fun afternoon learning to prepare a couple of new dishes with friends or family.
