Chef At Home in Prague
Get to know me better
Private chef to Hollywood's A-list, now hosting globally inspired dinners in Prague and multi-day villa stays across Europe.
I'm Mariko, a private chef with a career that began in Los Angeles
cooking for Hollywood's A-list and now runs through Prague, where I host
private dinners overlooking the Vltava.
My kitchen has fed people who can eat anywhere and still want something
different but familiar. I cooked privately for Jared Leto, designed a
private dinner for David Lynch, and worked with producers, writers, and
public figures who value discretion as much as flavor. Along the way I
lived and cooked across Vietnam and India, where I trained as a licensed
Ayurvedic educator and learned the stories behind the ingredients I use
today.
My food is globally inspired and locally sourced: the precision of
private Hollywood kitchens, the spice of India, the clean flavors of
Southeast Asia, and the exceptional seasonal produce of the Czech
Republic. Whether it's a dinner for two, a holiday table, or a multi-day
stay in a villa, I build every menu around the people at the table.
I'm based in Prague and available to travel across Europe.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
The anchor for life's moments that matter: birthdays, reunions, and the ordinary nights with friends and family that become the ones you remember.
I learned to cook at...
At the library as a kid, beside my Italian grandmother and mother, and hands-on from locals in every country I traveled.
A cooking secret...
The ingredients. I build every dish around the best seasonal produce, locally raised meats, and ingredients from my travels that tell a story.
