What You'll Do

Chef-transformed seasonal vegetables into complex, umami-rich masterpieces with innovative techniques.

This private chef experience puts the focus on garden-fresh ingredients designed to be the star of the show. The menu is planned, prepared and served by an esteemed chef with a flair for creating plant-based recipes.

Enjoy the company of family and friends as you begin your meal with spiced butternut squash soup with garlic, ginger and coconut milk. Your next course is wild mushroom ragout over creamy polenta infused with a blend of rosemary, garlic and sage. Dessert is a sweet spot of poached pears in spiced red wine with coconut milk crème anglaise.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to accompany the menu, and may request pairing recommendations from the chef upon booking.

Despite successful career beginnings as a marketing and public relations professional, the allure of the culinary arts was too much for Chef Shaun to resist. Now, drawing on his deep-rooted passion for cooking — honed under the tutelage of his beloved grandmothers — he blends childhood inspiration with formal culinary education and training to deliver exceptional cooking experiences for those who share his fascination with great food. Sharing his culinary knowledge is what Chef Shaun loves to do the most — always with a focus on delivering value, integrity, and above all else, authenticity.

Surf and Turf with Mashed Potatoes and Crème Brûlée. Learned so many different techniques on how to cook steak and my boyfriend loved learning how quick and easy it is to cook crab cakes! 10/10 chef!
