Chef Sabrina Pereira

Private Chef in Keystone

I have 17 years of experience in the culinary industry, including roles in fine dining, catering, personal chef services, and executive chef positions. Throughout my career, I have developed a strong foundation in both high-level restaurant execution and personalized, client-focused dining experiences.

The majority of my professional journey has taken place in California, where I had the privilege of preparing meals for guests from around the world. Recently, I relocated to Colorado, bringing with me a refined culinary perspective shaped by diverse cultures, high standards, and a commitment to quality.

I am passionate about creating thoughtful, memorable meals tailored to each client’s tastes and occasion. I would be honored to bring my experience, creativity, and dedication to your table.

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is reflection of art culture and experiences. Being able to take high-quality ingredients and turn into a work of art as well as nourishment

I learned to cook at...

I originally learned to cook for my grandmother. And then professionally getting my culinary degree in 2007

A cooking secret...

Taking high-quality ingredients, fresh flavors and preparing them simply using a variety of techniques.

Incredible experience- highly recommend. Created a memorable meal for my family and guests.

Amazing food, thanks Sabrina!

Chef Sabrina was excellent, professional, and served us an absolute feast! She had great tableside service as well and talked us through all the dishes. She left the kitchen spotless afterwards as well. Would absolutely recommend her.

Very Amazing food and super easy / seamless experience !

Chef Sabrina executed a perfect multi course meal for about 18 people in a rental home in Breckenridge. The food was amazing, everyone was pleased from the kids to the teens and adults. Would absolutely recommend and we hope to book again during our next trip in summit county.

Sebrina was an excellent Chef! We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. Highly recommend!

Chef Sabrina did an amazing job! We would recommend her to anyone looking to book a private meal. All the food was amazing and the plating was beautiful. She was extremely polite and made the whole experience magical!

We hired Sabrina through Take a Chef, for our daughters "Elaborate Elopement" , which was a group of 13 people all staying together for a 4 day vacation (with a wedding in the middle lol). We had the chef just for the wedding day.....The food was incredible. We had some tricky timing issues with our group, do to some of the group taking pictures for an hour while the rest of the people were at the house etc. I was most concerned about this aspect prior to the event. Sabrina "timed" everything perfectly without a bit of prompting. She just read the room and knew exactly when everything needed to be served. The food as ALL amazing!!!! Several people at the event commented this was the EXACT way to handle/feed this group....and one couple who attended, have decided they too want to have an Elaborate Elopement and will be hiring a chef for their small group as well.

Sabrina is a star! The food was amazing, she was easy to work with, and our dinner was a huge success!

We had Chef Sabrina with us for our 3-day business retreat, and she was absolutely phenomenal. She managed everything on her own for a group of 15 people, and somehow made it all look effortless. From start to finish, she was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and truly felt like part of the team. Before the event even started, she worked with us to craft the perfect menu that captured exactly the feel we were going for. During the retreat, she made sure everyone was taken care of. Accommodating individual needs without missing a beat and delivered meal after meal that had people talking long after we finished eating. By the end of the week, Chef Sabrina had become the highlight of the retreat. Everyone was raving about her, and a few of our guests were already asking her about doing their future events. She brought something really special to the experience, and we’re already looking forward to inviting her back.

Amazing! Everything I was hoping for. Full day experience breakfast, lunch and dinner. Chef Sabrina went above and beyond with cleaning and grabbing extra items from the store. We loved the taco bar and Ceviche!

Sabrina prepared an excellent meal for my group. She was very communicative, the food was delicious, she is a very kind person, and her cleanup was very thorough. I highly recommend Sabrina!

Sabrina was a joy to work with! She was very accommodating, and her food was amazing! The Bison Sliders were a big hit and we were able to cut the prime rib with a butter knife! I would definitely use Take a Chef and Sabrina again!

Sabrina was the perfect chef for our dinner. She was easy to talk to, pleasant and just did her thing around our chaos. We were 11 adults and had a big hiking day and were exhausted on our return. We chose family style which was perfect!!! Sabrina cooked a delicious meal!

Excellent brunch! Worth the price. Thanks so much!!

Chef Sabrina was absolutely phenomenal! We had a celebration dinner for 10 adults + 3 kids and everyone was in awe of the experience. From the start, she was great at communicating about the menu and the planning. The AirBnB where we staying turned out not to be great as far as kitchen equipment, but she didn't skip a beat and the meal was wonderful from start to finish. She was even extremely kind to the older kid (9) who decided to become her "helper" through the meal. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are very grateful.

Chef Sabrina was unbelievable!! Very easy to work with, very accommodating for my food allergy, and the presentation + quality had every single guests raving! Better than any restaurant experience (I’ve hosted many parties at various places), we were all thrilled with her!!

Phenomenal food!

We had an excellent experience working with Chef Sabrina! The menu had lots of great options, and the dishes we ended up choosing were absolutely delicious! Our entire group was really happy with the meal and private chef experience. Chef Sabrina was a pleasure to work with - highly recommend!

Sabrina was the perfect ending to a great trip. The food was amazing and she was so much fun. Would definitely recommend her to and dinner party.
