Private Chef Specialty Menus

American Coastal Dining

As a melting pot of so many cultures,

this menu is the most exciting for new customers, regulars and me!. It's a combination of so many different cuisines blended into my own recipes.

The highlight of this menu is the option for a Surf and Turf or Sea Grill. Meaning the option to do a Land or Sea option OR a Land and 2 Sea options served on the plate or platter style to share at the table with your friends and family.

All portions are lighter but equal to a full course + the addition of appetizer, salad and dessert.

3 Courses are also an option

I will work with you to make the best experience for your kids as well . They can of course also eat off the adult menu but that's up to you to arrange unless you ask me specifically.

Pricing will be determined by amount of
