Chef Brian Hollander
Chef At Home in Oakland
Get to know me better
I'm all about the intersection of great food and community.
I am a chef with many years of experience in private events, as well as large-scale community events.
I would describe my food as nostalgic classics with a modern twist. Some of my favorites include moussaka, braised beef in various styles, soups, salads, ragouts, fish, and interesting vegetarian dishes.
I can do meal prep, small parties of up to 12, as well as large event. Rates can be negotiated but I use the rates provided on this site as a baseline.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
All about connecting people through food. I can do some of the fancy stuff but I prefer "down home" meals that remind you of your childhood favorites.
I learned to cook at...
I took food prep in high school and just ran with it. I'm largely self-taught, though it's more like chef taught because I've had fantastic mentors.
A cooking secret...
Eat real food. I like to start with good quality local ingredients as much as possible. Good ingredients can make anything yummy!
