Get to know me better

I’m a chef who takes soulful, homestyle food and turns it into elevated, unforgettable meals that are full of flavor, love, and culture.

I’m Chef Lashema Johnson, the founder of Shema’s Homestyle Cooking, a luxury homestyle catering and private dining brand based in Atlanta. I specialize in elevated comfort cuisine that blends soulful Southern roots with refined presentation, creating memorable and intimate dining experiences.

My culinary journey is inspired by family traditions, cultural heritage, and a deep love for serving others. I’ve had the honor of catering the AAMBC Awards Show, where my work was recognized for excellence in catering and high-level event service. I’ve also worked for the late celebrity Mickey Lee, an experience that strengthened my professionalism, discretion, and commitment to luxury service.

I focus on private chef services, in-home dining, and special events tailored to each client’s vision. Every menu is curated with intention, ensuring guests feel welcomed, celebrated, and well-fed. My goal is to deliver seamless experiences where homestyle comfort meets luxury dining.
