I am a former Brazilian model. During my modeling years, I lived in many countries and had the opportunity to study and taste a little of each cuisine. I studied cooking in Brazil, at a school called Senac. Later I decided to specialize in healthy, functional, and restrictive cuisine. I learned how to make wise and healthy choices, but as tasty as traditional cooking. Also, I learned how to cook gluten, lactose, and meat-free, if necessary. My favorite cuisines are Italian, Greek, and Spanish.

For me, cooking is...

To cook is to make food for the body and also for the soul.

I learned to cook at...

I learned the theory at senac and later at the european center in Curitiba - brazil.

A cooking secret...

Treat the ingredients with respect.

Oh my goodness, how do I adequately praise the work of Chef Andressa and her partner? Honestly, this was one of the top culinary experiences we've had in our life, couple that with the fact that we got to enjoy this amazing culinary journey in the comfort of our own home and it was simply perfection. The 6-course meal was catered directly to our vegetarian requirements, and it kept all the non-vegetarians happy as well. The stories behind the food, the recipes, the process, all put together made the evening utterly perfect. I cannot recommend Chef Andressa highly enough. Just unbelievable!

Andressa gave us an amazing experience of culinary delight in the food she prepared for us. Her talents as a chef are matched by her lovely personality. She effortlessly put us at ease from the moment she arrived and her personal presentation of the exquisite dishes was wonderful. She far surpassed anything we had imagined. This was an extraordinary meal - a feast prepared with care and and obvious love.

Chef Andressa gave us a wonderful experience. She has been very polite and extremely professional. All the dishes tasted great and the service she provided has been a great success for us. I definitely recommend her and I hope to book new experiences with her in the future
