Private Chef In Woodbury
Get to know me better
Fun and creative chef that focuses on local ingredients and an interactive dining experience.
Hello! My name is Jacob Trinh, Chef de Cuisine of Little Fish in Philadelphia. Little Fish is a 16-seat intimate dining space that offers a seafood forward-tasting menu. Here, I focus on high-quality seafood, ingredients, and techniques to highlight the natural flavors of beautiful products. I am a versatile chef with a strong knowledge of a variety of cuisines and cultures. My cuisine is heavily chef-driven and seasonal. I specialize in Asian flavors with experience in fine dining. I am a Johnson & Wales graduate and an alumni of C-CAP (Careers through Culinary Arts Program) which helps high school students develop the necessary skills to achieve higher education for the culinary fields through job training, scholarship competitions, and job placements. I am currently on their Chef's Committee. I love to work with raw seafood and interactive foods. My motto is always, "Let's play with our food!"
If you enjoy a chef who is interactive and loves to provide information on the menu, I am the perfect fit for you and your party.
My menu is seasonal and items may be subject to change. They are also adaptable to your preferences and/or dietary restrictions.
I offer sake tastings along with most of my dinners. Sake is a rice wine that has a similar ABV % as wine (12-18% AVG). It can be paired with all types of cuisine.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
A way to express myself. It is a way to explore creativity and create interactive meals that I would enjoy eating myself.
I learned to cook at...
A young age. Growing up, I cooked for my 3 brothers which led me to this passion. I won a full-ride scholarship in highschool through cooking.
A cooking secret...
Stay clean, and work efficiently. Always learn about the product and taste before trying to transform it. Less is more.
