Chef Yasuaki Chida

Private Chef In Newmarket

I am a highly experienced, professional chef with a diverse culinary repertoire, traditional/original including: French, Japanese, Chinese, Cajun, Kosher and European

I enjoy creating new dishes and producing meals that are both pleasing and of the finest quality. I am a classically trained chef(French) with extensive banquet and fine dining experience.

Organized and comfortable with producing meals for large groups, I place great importance on maintaining the highest standards and am noted for my exceptional work ethic.

For me, cooking is...

The cornerstone of a happy life ... quality food and positive dining experiences make life enjoyable!

I learned to cook at...

A cooking secret...

No secret, I always use the the best quality ingredients and maintain the highest standards. I work hard!!!
