Chef Timothy Loayza

Private Chef In Franklin

I'm one of those few chefs who doesn't believe on that tiny portion crap. I make sure everyone eats like a royal!

Best part about me- I will bring my recipe archives and let you have what you dined that night so you have the freedom of summoning me into your home!

Big News: I am now the Culinarian Director for A Perfect Fit, so my skillset has honed tenfold with my curious nature, Samantha's hybrid apprenticeship, working with celebrity diets and cuisine! Regardless of your status I'll treat you fairly and honorably!

I believe no matter what your background, status, origin, religion, or heritage including your diet, lifestyle, allergies, or dislikes- everyone should partake in any party alongside being fed like a royal, hence I will make sure to give you a substitute to make your diet right!

Big News: For so long people with Peanut, Tree Nut, and Shellfish even Gluten Allergic could never dine on Thai food- due to its both practically impossible or unfeasible- But NO LONGER!!! I am one of those few chefs who can make both substitute and completely free from those allergens! So for you allergic individuals, can finally dine upon this raved cuisine that would end you apparently? Now instead of fear, wait with your stomach with joy and amazement!

My backstory how I got into the culinary world. If you want the funny yet fascinating success story ask me on sight. I do gourmet international, if you are on a special diet I can convert 13 different diets even gluten-free. So if you want to make a menu with my culinary prowess, let's make something delicious happen.

I do sushi with overnight shipping and can handle parties up to 150. I am 2 years in apprenticeship with a Chef for 10 year apprenticeship program to give me Sublime quality cuisine; her restaurant has opened! Expat BBQs of the World- Go to The Foundry in STL (St. Louis plus the entirety owned by Niche Food Group- Their cuisine is sublime!) Samantha Nawrocki look her up and visit her place!

(Five years left until my Michelin technicality trained is in)

For me, cooking is...

Joy, stress relieving, enlightening, blissful and brings passion to my life alongside to add to yours.

I learned to cook at...

8 years old for myself, also due to a parent's romantic life and their expensive taste. Then now going on to 4 years of private chef work and agencies

A cooking secret...

Asides from caffeine, leg day, and cardio at the gym. Is that I am ready at the helm to cook or bake. I experiment & research like a scientist.

Chef Timoty gave us the most incredible dinner for the 4 of us. What we loved about the evening is the portion sizes were so generous. He didn't cut back at all and everything was so delicious. Best gyozas I've ever had in my life. His attention to detail was amazing to see and he was very thorough with everything. He told us the story behind a lot of the dishes but also let us get on with our evening with our friends whilst he was working away in the kitchen behind us. A special character with great culinary skills, would definitely recommend!

Chef Timothy was great! He was on time, made a beautiful presentation of the dishes, and the food was great! He catered to my exact needs of what I wanted for my bachelorette party. Thank you Chef Timothy!

We had an amazing evening enjoying the presence and delicious food Chef Tim prepared for us! He was kind and knowledgeable, sharing his chef secrets. His 5 course french meal was perfection!!

My Father’s Day dinner was unremarkable. Chef Tim was very detailed oriented and had amazing stories about the dishes and his culinary adventures and background. I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience me and boyfriend experienced. Definitely would hire me over and over again for all upcoming events we will hold in the future

Chef Timothy was incredible. He is meticulous with his planning and he did a wonderful job putting together a delicious menu for us to enjoy. We had a blast for my wife's birthday dinner because of Chef Timothy's added special attention to detail. He is a great person and an even better chef. He will continue to book Chef Timothy in the future for events.

Tim is the chef you want!

One of the most unique and best experience I have ever had. The chef created a specialized menu based upon the birthday girl's favorite foods. The preparation and attention to every detail was amazing. The food was beyond exquisite. We have already booked for a second event!!! You definitely won't be disappointed by the service, food quality or amount of food. It was heaven.

Chef Timothy was absolutely amazing! Exceeded all expectations! We will definitely hire him again!

Chef Timothy was great! His meal was the perfect ending to our 50th birthday weekend.

Timothy is an awesome chef - he was able to feed 30 people single-handedly. He was incredibly sweet and his delivery was perfect. I look forward to keeping in touch with him for future engagements.
