Cook with Chef Traci

Check out my over 100 FIVE star reviews on my Yelp page and also on my Google page. You just need to search Cook with Chef Traci. I’m private chef and cooking teacher who is passionate about using food to bring people together. I want a world where it’s easy to join together with family, friends, colleagues and enjoy a shared meal. Eating is sociable. I want it to be a joyful and memorable experience for everyone. I like to focus on what brings us together and see any dietary restrictions as an opportunity for creativity and invention. How I choose to keep learning as a chef is intentional, and part of my mission of inclusivity and creativity. For me, there is no greater inspiration than taking a private class from a fellow chef when I’m traveling, whether to Morocco, Belize, Mexico, Thailand, or New York or New Orleans. There’s nothing that can replace the conversation and conviviality of being in a chef’s kitchen, and learning in a hands-on, interactive way where recipes, tips, philosophy, and story blend together beautifully. In our new world, we need everyone’s ideas, and everyone deserves a meaningful seat at the table. My own love affair with the kitchen goes way back. I remember the day I got my Easy Bake Oven at age 5, and got right to work making up my own cake batters and recipes. I’ve been inventing in the kitchen ever since. It’s where I feel most creative, and at home.
