I am a professional chef with 18+ years of culinary experience. I have worked in various outlets in the industry from small mom and pop cafes to nine hundred room, 5 star resorts. I have a love for Italian/Latin cooking with big, bold flavors and a rustic presentation. Three years ago I started my own cooking company, Cozey. I focus on local ingredients and scratch cooking hosting private dinners pop ups, catering and meal prep.

For me, cooking is...

An outlet. I love being above to nourish people and bring enjoyment to someone’s day through culinary experiences.

I learned to cook at...

At some of the top restaurants and resorts around the country located in Arizona, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and California.

A cooking secret...

Always staying calm and collected while under pressure!

Bobby was fabulous! The meal was simply amazing!!

we had a great time, the food was delicious and so we'll prepared!

I booked this as a surprise for my fiancé during his bachelor party in Scottsdale. He and his friends said the whole experience was amazing. It was a great way to make sure the guys were fed/energized to continue their bachelor festivities. They said they ate “soo good”. Highly recommend!

Chef Bobby was great! I have special dietary restrictions & he was able to work around them. All the dishes were delicious including dessert. He was kind & clean. I highly recommend.
