Private Chef Services
LOCALLY SOURCED, SEASONALLY INSPIRED, UNFORGETTABLY DELICIOUS
Every occasion and palate is unique, so I take pride in thoughtfully customizing each menu to meet my clients' specific preferences. I am dedicated to crafting a unique dining experience inspired by Montana's ever-changing seasons and breathtaking natural beauty. Each menu reflects the essence of the land, featuring ingredients sourced from local farmers and ranchers who share a passion for quality and sustainability. By highlighting the freshest seasonal produce, meats, and artisanal goods, I bring the rich flavors of Montana to life. Whether it's a summer harvest feast or a cozy winter gathering, my goal is to honor the region’s bounty while creating a memorable culinary experience that connects you to the place, the season, and the people behind every ingredient. With careful attention to these details, my goal is to create a dining experience that is both exceptional and unforgettable.
How It Works
Complimentary Consultation
Together, we work with the vast amounts of wants and needs that arise like offering an amuse-bouche, wine pairing, and desserts. This can be online, over the phone or meet up in Bozeman to discuss your Private Chef and Catering needs in person.
Personalized Menu
All of our menus are custom-made specifically for you, and tailored to suit any occasion, theme or dietary restriction. Drawing inspiration from various cuisines, we strive to incorporate organic, locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients into each dish. I’m also happy to accommodate a wide range of dietary restrictions, including gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, lactose-free, paleo, keto, or nut-free diets. You have the freedom to choose from coursed and plated meals, tasting menus, or family-style options. It's entirely up to you! Wine or cocktail pairings can be added as well.
Ingredient Sourcing
I will personally handle the task of procuring ingredients for you, ensuring that I select only the freshest ingredients while also carefully considering your specific dietary requirements or restrictions. The significance of sourcing local food items is paramount to me, and I am dedicated to utilizing local and regional produce and seasonal ingredients whenever they are available. Rest assured, your meals will reflect my commitment to quality, freshness, and local sustainability.
Preparation + Setup + Service
Our team will prepare the food in our rented commercial kitchen space, and finish the cooking process on-site, in your kitchen.

COOKING CLASSES
Experience the joy of enhancing your culinary skills through personalized hands-on cooking classes right in your own kitchen. Delve into a diverse range of options tailored to your expertise, preferences, or dietary needs. Whether you crave the art of crafting homemade pasta (a personal highlight), mastering the basics of exquisite French sauces, or perfecting a nostalgic apple pie recipe reminiscent of Grandma's, these sessions are designed to boost your kitchen prowess. Beyond just learning, these classes promise a delightful and engaging experience that will empower you to cook with flair and confidence.
PICKUP/DROP-OFF DINNERS
If you lead a busy lifestyle, pickup/drop-off dinners offer a convenient dining solution. Your meal will be prepared in advance, neatly packaged, and either ready to eat or accompanied by simple heating instructions. Whether you need meals for breakfast, lunch, or dinner during an extended stay, or just a single evening meal, this option caters to your needs.
If you know someone who could benefit from dinner assistance or prefer not to have a chef in your home, arranging a drop-off is a seamless alternative.
