I am a personal chef based in New Orleans. Originally from New York, I’ve been exposed to a wide range of culinary styles, which has shaped my diverse approach in the kitchen. My cooking brings a Southern foundation with a creative, modern twist.

I have extensive experience preparing gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and MSG-free meals, and I love working with fresh, innovative ingredients. I am also skilled in pastry, allowing me to offer a well-rounded culinary experience.

For me, cooking is...

For me cooking is a love language. When you cook, you pour your heart and soul into a plate. In turn the person receiving your plate is fed your love

I learned to cook at...

I learned to cook in my mother kitchen. I used what she taught me, and took a variety of different other culinary teachings.

A cooking secret...

I treat my my kitchen just like your grandmother did. I fill it with love and positive vibes, and in turn I produce loving nutritious food

Absolutely loved having Tatiana serve us her delicious cooking in celebration of my buddies' Bachelor Party down in NOLA. There were 8 of us in total, and she was kind enough to accommodate someone in the party with Celiac disease, i.e. gluten-free food required. Tatiana was a true pleasure to work with from start to finish, and I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in some down home Cajun-style delights!

Chef Tatiana was amazing and we loved her service. We received authentic New Orleans cuisines and enjoyed everything she prepared. Thank you so much

Chef Tatiana exceeded our expectations! Priceless experience.
