Chef Jurandir Da Silveira

I am a restaurant, catering, and fair chef with over six years of professional experience preparing food for diverse audiences across California. My background ranges from barbecue and large-scale fair cuisine to comforting daily meals and traditional dishes, allowing me to adapt seamlessly to different settings, guest counts, and event styles.

A defining moment in my career was earning 2nd place at the 2nd International BBQ Roaster Tournament in Uruguay, an experience that strengthened both my competitive spirit and my dedication to mastering fire-based cooking techniques. Barbecue is more than a method to me, it is a craft that requires patience, precision, and respect for ingredients.

Coming from a family of chefs in Brazil, food has always been at the center of my life. Inspired by my roots, I have made it my mission to bring the warmth, joy, and vibrant flavors of Brazilian cuisine to every table I serve. My cooking reflects tradition while embracing creativity, ensuring each meal feels authentic, generous, and full of character.

Whether preparing an intimate gathering or a lively celebration, my goal is to create an experience that feels welcoming, flavorful, and memorable for every guest.
