Craig D.
I'm Craig, a vibrant Chef with an extensive background in cooking that spans over 20 years. My journey has allowed me to work in an array of settings from fine dining restaurants, to opening new eateries in different parts of the globe, to serving food tailored to athletes, whipping up delicacies at festivals, and creating homely fare for families. I believe that cooking severs far beyond sustenance—it's a form of art, a burst of flavor, and a catalyst of joy. This belief has driven my passion for cooking and enhanced my creativity in the kitchen. On a more personal note, I am 44 years old, and together with my girlfriend and daughter, we share a mutual love for gastronomy. In addition to cooking, I stay active by participating in various sports as my schedule permits. I am readily available to bring my culinary expertise to your home or event, with a flexible Monday to Friday schedule that covers mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether you're in need of a private cook, a chef for events, a family cook, a camp cook or a dietary cook, I am eager to deliver high quality meals that cater to your preferences. I am proficient in preparing a variety of ethnic cuisines, from Canadian, Italian, Middle Eastern, and Mexican to Vegetarian, Vegan, Eastern European and Kosher. I have mastered various culinary skills like using modern cooking technology, upholding sanitary and hygienic standards, developing unique menu, and managing kitchen staff. My experience in the confectionary industry combined with my professional plating talent and catering experience sets me apart. In addition to cooking, my portfolio includes diverse duties such as table setting and serving, purchasing products, keeping the kitchen clean, washing dishes, organizing and preparing food for events and creating menus in line with the employer's preferences. I hold a Food Handler’s Certification, assuring you that your meals are in safe, capable hands. So whether you crave comfort food or you're after a gourmet experience, I am ready to embark on this culinary journey with you!
