What’s your signature dish?
Swiss Enchiladas in Tequila Cream Sauce is the most-requested dish by people that know my cooking. The dish is my fusion of regional recipes and techniques that I learned while living in Central Mexico, my home for many years. My seafood plates and Italian fare are also very popular.
How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
A critical step for me is to fully understand the client's vision for the event, their budget expectations and the goal of the event. Equally important to me is understanding the demographics and dynamics of the event attendees. Information regarding the venue is also a crucial element (i.e. available kitchen facilities and equipment).
In addition to the client's culinary preferences, these components allow me to propose creative menus, staffing requirements and food presentations that align with their budget.
What do you love most about your job?
First and foremost is my love for food and the culinary arts. There's an inherent artistic creativity that comes from preparing both classic and innovative recipes. I also find great reward in providing sincere hospitality...the beauty of making people happy.
As a Personal Chef, many of my bookings are in-home events. The kitchen becomes a center of attention for attendees. Interacting with guests and sharing culinary secrets become part of the entertainment. This is also true for cooking classes and food demonstrations.
Why should our clients choose you?
I provide a unique, hospitable experience wherein the food becomes the entertainment!
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I - and my staff - have been diligent in complying with Covid requirements. I have many years of experience in the food service industry, which has consistently focused on food safety. My certifications include requirements from the National Restaurant Association, Texas Department of State Health Services and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. We remain covid-protocol friendly in complying with the client's requests.
