Curated Dinner Parties, Events & Good Eatin’

Serving Cape Cod, South Shore, MA & RI

nice to meet you!

I am a professional chef with a passion for everything edible. I began working in a dreamy, local Massachusetts cheese shop with European roots as a teenager, executing private dinners and working with a passionate chef, and then went on to study at the Culinary Institute of America .


I have been working in kitchens up the East Coast for the last 13 years. I love to create flavorful, unique dishes with all of the local bounty New England seasons have to offer. I am strong rooted in my background as an Argentinian/Italian and am excited to share my family's cuisine as well as favorite local Cape Cod offerings. I am a homemaker, cook, avid gardener, mother, artist, nature lover, and love to meet and nurture people with comforting food.

FEAST your eyes !

Highly Curated

I plan each menu individually based on the client’s preferences, budget, and dietary restrictions.


From menu planning and grocery curation to meal preparation and clean-up, I take care of every detail, allowing you to relax and enjoy high-quality meals in the comfort of your own space.


I love to work with local purveyors farms, and fish harvesters as much as possible. They are what puts the magic in our taste buds and offer the highest quality in seasonal ingredients!
