Happy Bellies

My name is Shirley, and I am a private chef dedicated to creating personalized culinary experiences that delight the palate and nourish the soul. My journey into the world of gastronomy began since I was 8 years old where I first discovered my passion for cooking through cooking for daily meals to family celebrations. The kitchen became my sanctuary, a place where I could express my creativity and connect with those I loved through food. As a private chef, I have had the pleasure of working with a diverse clientele, from busy professionals to families and even high-profile individuals. This role allows me to engage with my clients on a personal level, understanding their preferences and crafting menus that reflect their culinary desires. My cooking style emphasizes Chinese flavors and wok qi and I am particularly passionate about Chinese, Japanese, and French food along with plating art. I believe that food is a powerful medium for connection and celebration. Each meal I prepare is not just about sustenance; it is about creating an experience that fosters joy and togetherness. I also take pride in educating my clients about the ingredients I use, offering insights into nutrition and cooking techniques, so they can appreciate the art of cooking as much as I do. In addition to my culinary work, I enjoy traveling, sewing, and a crazy dog lover. Traveling often inspires my dishes and keep my creativity flowing. I am committed to staying updated on culinary trends and continuously honing my skills, as I believe that growth is essential in this ever-evolving field. As I move forward in my career, I remain dedicated to my clients and passionate about the art of cooking. Every meal is an opportunity to create lasting memories, and I am grateful to be a part of that journey. ⸻
