Personal Chef In MiamiGet to know me better
Experienced Personal Latina Chef and Cooking Instructor | "Good food doesn't need to be flashy when you use the right ingredients"
Hi! My name is Zoe Kelly, I'm a personal chef and cooking instructor in the South Florida área with over 6 years experience.
After being featured on a Food Network competition show in 2015, I was able to take the leap of faith from working my corporate job to being a full time personal chef. Since then, I've been able to cook for a wide array of clients from athletes, celebrities and the everyday clients who want a special dining experience. I am also an On-Camera host for Tastemade and have had the pleasure of teaching millions of people how to cook some of my favorite dishes. I love being able to teach people a new skill in the kitchen and seeing them discover new flavors.
My cooking style is best described as flavor forward honest cooking. I don't believe good food has to be flashy in order to be good, instead I focus on sourcing quality products and making them the star of a meal. I like creating dishes for my clients that make them feel happy. Whether it's a perfectly cooked steak or a Cuban roasted pork-I like to make people feel something when they bite into my food.
I believe in working clean, arriving on time and providing the best customer service experience with service. I am knowledgeable in different cuisines- Latin, Indian, American, Caribbean, Italian and Thai- and comfortable working with different dietary restrictions.
When I'm not cooking for clients, I am teaching online cooking classes, working on my kids cooking line Little Chef & Me or spending time with my husband and son.
