FULLY CUSTOMIZED MENUS

I plan each menu individually with each client, based on a series of questions regarding preferences and dietary restrictions, and using the freshest, local seasonal ingredients available.

Below is a sample of a few recent menus from my experience as a private chef on Martha’s Vineyard and Cape Cod.
