Introduction
Born Toronto Canada and grew up cooking with my Swiss grandmother. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be a chef. Since the time I have taken my love for cooking and traveling around the world. Starting in the great country of United States where I went to school at The Art Institute of Minneapolis and got my Bachelors in Culinary Management after that I started at Michael Mina’s Washing D.C Bourbon steak, then transferred to San Francisco at multiple Michael Mina restaurants, there I met my now husband who is french and we moved to France together for four years where I worked at the Michelin star restaurant in The Eiffel Tower “Jules Verne”. But my love for California stayed in my heart and after four years I brought my french husband back to Los Angeles with me where we now reside. There is nothing like the fresh produce and agriculture of California. My style of cooking is farm to table with an asian influence. My style is finesse with a casual touch with my food, flavor and presentation are very important. Meal preparation, I prepare everything for you and deliver to your door. I can customize the menu to your needs. I am a certified Health Coach through IIN and Ecornell, I understand how to specialize to each diet (keto, gluten free, low carb or healthier eating) flavor being the key component. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner or anything in-between. Bon appetit

I can’t recommend chef Samantha enough! She and her assistant Emma made a BEAUTIFUL multi-course brunch, poolside snacks, and dinner for my bachelorette party weekend and it was a hit. They are kind, efficient, make delicious and beautifully plated food, and kept things clean and tidy. Samantha was so responsive and answered all my questions through our scheduling process. Book her for all your private chef needs!!!

Highly recommend Chef Samantha. The meal she prepared for a dinner party I hosted was exquisite, delicious and left everyone wanting seconds. In planning the dinner, she was prompt in her responses and made excellent suggestions regarding the meal. She arrived on time, left the kitchen and was a delight. I will most definitely hire her again. Cannot thank her enough for preparing a meal my Dad will never forgot. Thanks for making his 75th birthday so memorable.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Dessert • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Standard (basic ingredients) • Dessert • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
