A private dining chef means I bring you a private, in-home culinary experience

Private chef and cookbook author (Celebraciones Mexicanas: History, Traditions and Recipes) Andrea Lawson Gray began her culinary journey in New York City’s Little Italy. For the past 15 years, she has prepared meals in the kitchens of San Francisco, Paris, Puerto Rico, and "at the side of my Peruvian and Caribbean family, my best friend who is an amazing Mediterranean home cook. But, more than anything...

My cooking style has been informed by that of Mexico, where I fell in love with the old world techniques: the time taken to grind spices with a mortar and pestle, toast seeds and chiles on a comal, working the masa to make tortillas by hand— honoring the ingredients, coaxing out the flavors in a way that nothing else can. These techniques lend themselves beautifully to the locally-sourced, organic ingredients we are blessed with in the SF Bay Area;".

The meal served to you and your guests is prepared in your kitchen, and served by our professional waitstaff, just as it would be in any fine dining establishment; but without the rush to turn your table over to the next party of waiting guests, without the hassle of parking or planning your drive home. SEAMLESS DINNER PARTIES

Hiring a private dining chef means from menu planning to shopping, cooking, setting the table, clean-up; everything is taken care of so you can focus on your guests. Our sommelier and mixologists are available to recommend wine and/or cocktail pairings.
