I’m a professional Chef and Pastry Chef with up to 10 years of experience in hotels, restaurants, and my own bakery. I cook international cuisine, modern and traditional Greek cuisine, and pastries, and I studied at culinary school in Greece. As an American citizen, I also worked in the USA for a few months, where I deepened my understanding of American and Mexican cuisine.

With many years in catering and hospitality, I can fully undertake the planning and management of a restaurant—from menu creation to staff evaluation and training. I prioritize communication and the exchange of ideas, and I aim to share my knowledge and passion through every collaboration.

What you get when you work with me

I cook with passion, love, and creativity

For me, cooking is passion, love, and creativity, and I bring that energy into every menu—balancing technique, flavor, and presentation so each dish feels intentional and memorable.

I’m grounded in tradition and trained for professional kitchens

I learned to cook from my mom when I was 10–11, starting with traditional techniques. Since then, I’ve built my career across hotels, restaurants, catering, and pastry—always refining my skills through real service and disciplined kitchen standards.

I never compromise on ingredients

My secret in the kitchen is very good quality and premium products. I focus on clean flavors, consistency, and respectful handling of ingredients so the final result feels elevated and honest.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my rates for private chef services in Greece?

I build every menu from scratch, so what you pay depends on the dishes, how many guests, and the kind of service you want. Most of my dinners come to around 381 EUR, and I'll always work with the budget you have in mind. Send me a message and I'll put together a proposal for your event.

What kind of food do I specialize in?

I cook Japanese. I build my menus around ingredients that are in season and bought locally, because that's where the flavor is. And if anyone at your table has a dietary restriction, just tell me and I'll adjust the dishes so no one misses out.

How can you book my private chef services in Greece?

To book me in Greece, click the Book Now button on this page and follow the steps. You'll add your event date, guest count, and any dietary restrictions as you go. Once your request comes through, I read it myself and reply with a menu proposal and the dates I have open.

Do I provide private chef services for events or special occasions?

Yes. I regularly cook for Family reunion and Friends gathering. I handle the menu, the timing, and the setup so the meal fits the kind of event you're throwing. Send me your date and I'll check whether I'm free.

Can the menus accommodate food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Choose a menu, share your event details, and the Private Chef Manager team will help confirm the experience with the chef.
