Chef Andrey Kravchenko

Chef At Home in Toronto

I’m Andrey Kravchenko, a private chef in Toronto and founder of ThinkOFood, a private chef and catering company serving Toronto and the GTA. With over 15 years of culinary experience, I create personalized dining experiences for intimate dinners, family celebrations, corporate events, and special occasions, bringing restaurant-quality food and service directly to your home or venue.

My passion for cooking started early, helping in the kitchen where my mother worked. Growing up in Israel, I learned to respect fresh ingredients, seasonality, and quality while working in local markets before completing four years of formal culinary training. After serving in the military as a kitchen manager, I travelled through South America and Europe, learning from chefs, home cooks, and local food traditions that continue to shape my style today.

My cooking blends Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South American influences with creativity, warmth, and attention to detail. Through ThinkOFood, my team and I offer private chef services and catering in Toronto, with customized menus designed around your tastes, dietary needs, and the kind of experience you want to create. If you’re looking for a Toronto private chef or GTA catering service for a dinner party, birthday, anniversary, or corporate gathering, I’d be happy to help make it memorable.

For me, cooking is...

For me, cooking is bringing people together through flavour-driven experiences, warm hospitality, and a personalized dining experience.

I learned to cook at...

I trained in Israel for 4 years in a culinary institute, 15+ years cooking in restaurants, and learning from travel and local food cultures.

A cooking secret...

Choosing the top-quality ingredients, not compromising on quality and bringing global flavours. Passion for learning from Cultures and expressing.
