Chef Ryan Abitz
Personal Chef In Vancouver
Get to know me better
I am a rock n roll chef who loves to play guitar and listen to music who is also laid back and easy to get along with.
I am a professional chef currently in Vancouver, WA, originally from Wisconsin and lived in Austin, TX for six years learning bbq, running a personal chef business, a food cart and a meal delivery service. I opened up two restaurants from ground up in Wisconsin after culinary school before figuring out restaurant politics aren't for me and moving to Austin which has a great music scene, hot but beautiful weather and the will to pursue a new chapter in my life as a personal chef. This has been my reality since 2010. I love what I do which keeps my life low stress and fun :)
More about me
For me, cooking is...
Fun and creative. There is a never ending quantity of possibilities out there.
I learned to cook at...
Formal schooling at Fox Valley Tech in Appleton, WI. Prior to that, fast paced restaurant/bar atmospheres. Can't forget mother and grandmother :)
A cooking secret...
Using salt correctly. The best dishes have enough salt to pull all the flavors out but not be too salty. Layer flavors for better rounded dishes.
