Chef Jamar Fraisar

Personal Chef In Atlanta

Greetings! I’m Chef Jay and I have been a professional chef for 10 years. My passion for food started when I was a child, watching my mother prepare meals for her family. The simple act of creating something out of nothing, bringing family together, inspired me to want to be a chef that draws everyone together.

For me, cooking is...

Life, love, passion. It’s the sunrise, and the sunset. It’s the ability to express one’s true self on a plate, as an artist displays on a canvas.

I learned to cook at...

My high school. After graduating, I began working under several high-end chefs with various culinary styles & backgrounds training to hone my craft.

A cooking secret...

Love- you can truly taste the dedication, creativity, and passion. Food is not just what you’re eating, it’s about the experience. How do you feel?

Chef was great, attentive, and wonderful to talk too. Our family had an amazing time. We would use him again and send him referrals. Wish he was near us in the DC area as opposed in Atlanta, but Georgia better treat him well, because they got a good thing and if they are not careful, another state may snatch him up!

The experience was very relaxing and we enjoyed engaging with the Chef. The food was very well made and delicate to taste. It was an anniversary celebration and it made such nice touch the evening.

Chef J is amazing. He totally made our dinner magical and incorporated everything I asked for in the courses. He is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Normally, I do not like fish but his mahi mahi was incredible. I will definitely hire him soon for another delicious experience.

Chef Jamar was incredible! He curated a 3-course menu for my husband’s birthday and each course was delicious! He made the experience memorable and at the end, my husband felt special. Mission accomplished!

Amazing experience!

Chef Jay and his wife did a great job. They are very professional, warm and kind. The dishes came out at the perfect time, were savory and each dish complemented the next. Some of the food was a tad too salty. The dessert was fantastic and really took me back to the days when my Great Grandmother made banana pudding. Jay's had a twist which I found to be innovative. Thank you, Chef Jay and Sou Chef!

Chef Jamar was amazing! He was very responsive. He came on time, was extremely organized, the food was so good, great quality and left the kitchen even cleaner than before. Highly recommended.

Chef jay was a blast, he was attentive and clearly loves what he does. He accommodated our group member with food allergies seamlessly. Best ratatouille I’ve ever had!

Chef Jamar was amazing! I cannot believe the wonderful meal he was able to make in our tiny little kitchen at our lakehouse. All 8 of us ladies thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful dinner. Jamar was professional and friendly and extremely talented. Highly recommend, and would love to have him cook for us again soon!
