Get to know me better
Chef Ashley blends Caribbean roots with global experiences to create bespoke, memorable meals and interactive culinary experiences
I’m Ashley Thorpe, a Barbadian chef, entrepreneur, and creative director with over 13 years of experience in professional kitchens. My journey spans cruise ships, hotels, and private dining for diplomatic and high-net clients, giving me a well-rounded perspective on service, precision, and culinary creativity.
Food should be as enjoyable as it is memorable. I create bespoke menus using fresh, seasonal ingredients, combining Caribbean roots with global influences. Whether you’re planning a luxurious villa dinner, a casual family gathering, or an interactive experience like The Ravioli Bar, I focus on delivering meals that are bold, thoughtful, and unforgettable.
I bring professionalism, creativity, and warmth to every table. My goal is to craft meals and experiences that feel personal, memorable, and effortless for my clients.
As the founder of PastaBaes and Creative Director of OTL Studios (Off The Line), I explore both the craft of cooking and the art of culinary storytelling
