Hello! My name is Christine, a passionate cook with four years of professional experience honed at the now closed "le Ballpark" restaurant and "Burger Stop" in Carlsbad, California. I have a distinctive flair for creating fresh, seasonal comfort food alongside an impressive array of everyday meals and dietary dishes, thanks to being a daily home chef for my lovely partner and our three kitties. Yes, that's right - I can create pet-safe healthy meals and treats for your entire household! Working with food is not just a job for me; it is a true passion. I can bring the seduction of a comfort dish right to your table, just as my Texan mother taught me. At the same time, I specialize in creating dishes that feel light on the stomach, as that's my personal preference. Having said that, I'd be thrilled to incorporate your tastes, needs, and hankerings into the meals I prepare. I possess full food handlers license and dietary nutrition academic training, and I'm also a holder of a degree in pathology and psychology from McGill (granted 2022). Hence, you can trust me to be mindful of your health, dietary restrictions, and even food allergies. Furthermore, I am available to work full-time or part-time, and can start immediately. My cooking repertoire is widespread, spanning from Canadian to Eastern European, from Italian to Asian and many more, with a particular affinity for Classic American style, Russian/ Polish, Italian American & authentic italiano, and Haute cuisine. I am skilled at baking, pastry preparation, and even sushi preparation. I also have experience in managing other employees in a professional kitchen setting. I am more than capable of keeping a clean and organized kitchen, preparing for events, and even serving. My flexibility extends to my availability, as I am readily accessible during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights, seven days a week. Looking forward to helping you create memorable dining experiences!
