A Message from Chef Mark
As a Personal Chef, I come to your home at your convenience, and do all the work, saving you time and money, and assuring that you get exactly the meals you want, when you want them.
Whether it’s regular weeknight meals for the family, stocking the freezer with meals for a new mother, a special Romantic Dinner for Two, or an in-home cooking lesson for you and your friends, I am here to provide you with fresh, custom made meals, and an entertaining time.
On these pages you’ll find information about my service and menus, and photos of some of my dishes. Please call me at (917) 405-0088 and we’ll discuss your specific needs.

Summer Special:
This summer, I’m offering a special price on dinners for 2 or 4 people in Manhattan.
$300 for an all inclusive 4 course dinner for two
$400 for an all inclusive 4 course dinner for four
By having set menus with 2 choices for each course, I’m able to offer it at a lower price than the normal menus which are completely customized, as a means of introducing the service to new customers. Price includes shopping, setup, cooking, serving and cleanup! (Menu Substitutions possible for an additional fee)
Please ask me about the special summer dinner party pricing when you call.
