Private Chef Natasha Lopez

As a private chef with over four years of experience cooking on yachts, I’ve had the privilege of traveling the world and immersing myself in a variety of culinary traditions. Each destination has inspired my cooking, enriching my repertoire with diverse flavors, techniques, and stories that I bring to the table.

I’m passionate about using the freshest seasonal produce to create vibrant, flavorful dishes that don’t just taste amazing but also look stunning. When I get the chance, I love cooking with fire—there’s something special about the bold flavors and primal connection it brings to food.

For me, it’s not just about cooking a meal; it’s about creating an experience. Whether it’s a birthday celebration, an end-of-year feast, or a family vacation, I thrive on turning your special moments into unforgettable memories with food that’s as unique as the occasion.

Let’s make your next celebration extraordinary!
