Meet the chef
Hi, I’m Diana.
Food has always been how I connect—with a place, a culture, and the people around a table.
I’m a graduate of The Culinary Institute of America at Greystone, with a background in food and nutrition management. After working in acclaimed restaurant kitchens, including San Francisco’s Campton Place and Chicago’s Girl & the Goat, I found my home in private cooking.
Today, I bring classic technique, a global point of view, and the abundance of Northern California to every menu I create.

“First we eat, then we do everything else.”
Kind words
From the table.
Meals are personal. The best measure of the work is how people feel when they share them.
“We love our meal plan and look forward to what Diana has put together for us each week. The meals are nutritious, delicious, and full of variety.”
“Diana made the entire menu and party-planning process a breeze. Our guests could not stop talking about the food.”
