Chef Allen Gula

Chef At Home In Kapaʻa

I have been here on Kaua'i for the last few years as a private chef, working with families on reunions, parties, weddings, and special events. I love using local seasonal ingredients that our farmers markets bring together. I encourage guests to try local seafood if that's a part of their diet. Food is my love language and I would be honored to be included for your dinner plans while on Kaua'i.

For me, cooking is...

my love language and it's something special to share food with people. I am passionate about organic, local ingredients that make us feel good.

I learned to cook at...

my home from my grandmothers and I am a culinary school dropout with years of restaurant experience. I have learned while traveling around the world.

A cooking secret...

remane calm, cook slow and share love and laughter because you can taste it in the food.

During our recent visit to Kauai we decided to splurge and have a private chef prepare one of our dinners. Chef Allen’s Hawaiian Surf and Turf with fried rice and fresh veggies was aromatic, well prepared and delicious. However, what truly made the service fantastic was Chef Allen‘s warm and generous personality. He created memories for our family that will last for years to come.

Excellent experience.
