Chef Terrell Mcmullen

Personal Chef in Edison

Hello, my name is Terrell or "Chef T". I have been in the food industry for more than 16 years. Throughout my career, I've been a chef in restaurants, hotels, cruise ships, catering companies, and corporate kitchens. I pride myself on versatility and flavor. Cooking and learning different cuisines, finding that balance between two different styles is the part I enjoy the most. Really allows for imagination and creativity

For me, cooking is...

Cooking is everything to me: its my happy place, my therapy

I learned to cook at...

The Culinary Academy of New York, Johnson & Wales University in Rhode Island

A cooking secret...

Enjoy getting to do what I love

Incredible meal from Chef Terrell!

Chef Terrell was wonderful from beginning to end. He def has a knowledge of food. And very accommodating and superb service. Will definitely book for future events

Chef Terrell was truly fantastic. We have a severe dairy and nut allergy in our household and he immediately put us at ease with his check-in's about ingredients prior to arriving at our apartment. In addition to being wonderful with communicating, he was also very punctual and is also an amazing cook! We truly enjoyed every dish that he created and presented and he even introduced us to some new kinds of food. We were so impressed with his level of professionalism and culinary expertise. Thank you again, Chef Terrell!

Chef Terrell is super on top of his game and prepared an incredible meal for us. He was kind, attentive, professional, and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. He’s sure to put any diner at ease, whether they want to chat for a while or simply do their own thing while the dishes are being prepared and served. The food itself was wonderful—the portions were generous and the flavors were amazing. We highly recommend him!

Chef T impressed us from the start. He brought all of his own cookware as well dishes for presentation! Honestly, there was little for us to do other than sip on great wine, good conversation and of course enjoy his delicious dishes. We both thoroughly enjoyed the evening and Chef T’s food. Best part of all… we got to stay home! Thanks again Chef T!
