About

Cooking has been my passion since childhood, a flame ignited at seven years old. With 12 years of experience honed in the fast-paced heat of commercial kitchens, and as a sous chef since 2023, I pour my heart and soul into every dish I create, from the simplest to the most complex.

Due to the high booking requests, I am unable to get to you all in a timely manner. Moving forward (unless you hired me prior to today, May 19), I will only be doing monthly popup dinners at my venue. There will be a set menu, which I will post promptly through here.

If you are interested in joining my popup dining experience, please send me a message to reserve your spot. Per party of 6 maximum.

Next dining experience is in the works and set in mid July. Prices include: $15 per starters, $25 per entree, $10 per dessert, or $50 for the full course (6 courses). This does include water and soft beverages, however, alcohol will cost extra depending on the cocktail and availability.

    Chef Jessie is able to provide a delightful dining experience, even under duress of a last minute venue change! I particularly enjoyed the creativity of her soup and desserts, which bookended the meal nicely.

    I hired Jessie for a private bachelorette dinner party, and it was an amazing experience! Everything was delicious. She was so kind in willing to craft a customized menu that perfectly fit our tastes and dietary needs. I can’t stop thinking about the bruschetta we had to start. I still think about it to this day haha! Then the caesar salad and chicken cacciatore she made were both so rich in flavor and the chocolate and pistachio cannolis were the perfect final touch. Chef Jessie’s passion and skill truly shone through and Im just so grateful to have had her.
    And so overall, I highly recommend Chef Jessie—you will not be disappointed. She really made it such a special time! :)

    Jessie is incredible! Her range of cooking from poke bowls to fried chicken to carbonara can’t be beat! Jessie punctual, kind, helpful, and does immaculate meal planning. Her food makes us want to stay in rather than eat out at the best restaurants. We are so grateful for Jessie and she is a part of our family!!
