Chef At Home In London

Hey I'm Chrissy, I own a caterer company in London and happy to travel further. We have buffet, entrée and seated menus, staff along with equipment. I have always had a passion for food and trying new ingredients and learning different techniques. I'm known to be bubbly and focused, always happy to answer questions and detail oriented.

For me, cooking is...

How I get to express myself and tell a story through food.

I learned to cook at...

I have worked under some amazing head chefs in a variety of restaurants and schools throughout London over the last 3 years.

A cooking secret...

Paying attention to detail. Using fresh ingredients and cooking with passion.
