MY JOURNEY

A Culinary Journey Grounded in Experience

Angie trained at Silwood School of Cookery and has worked in some of South Africa’s most respected kitchens such as Chef’s Warehouse, La Colombe and Fyn — as well as in a Michelin-starred restaurant in France. These years in professional kitchens gave her a deep respect for technique, precision, and remarkable ingredients.

Her shift into private cheffing came from a desire to connect more personally with food — and with people. For Angie, a meal is never just about the food, it’s about how it makes people feel.

PRIVATE CHEF SERVICES

What’s On Offer

Chef Angie creates custom menus for a wide range of occasions: private dinners, milestone birthdays, family lunches, business gatherings, or retreat catering. Each menu is designed to reflect the moment, the guests, and the season.

Tasting Menu

Traditional South African Braais

ANGIE’S CULINARY PHILOSOPHY

A Philosophy of Simple, Memorable Food

Chef Angie believes that good food should be generous, nourishing, and quietly unforgettable. Her style is refined yet relaxed — led by seasonal produce, layered flavours, and a clear sense of purpose.

Whether it’s a single bite or a slow, shared meal, the goal is always the same: to bring people together through the joy of food.

Our family was in Cape Town and needed a private chef given there were 12 of us (including children). Wow, not only is her food amazing, but she is an absolute pleasure to have around!

Angie fully catered our 50th Birthday in Llandudno, including canapés and full meals for all guests. All the food was excellent and we had many guests complimenting the catering and asking her details. Angie and her team are all lovely and a pleasure to work with in both the planning and flawless execution. The team worked to our specifications and needed no assistance or further instruction on the day, which was a great. I would highly recommend her services and look forward to using the team next time. Thanks again Angie for your wonderful service

It was Chef Angie’s friendly CAN DO attitude that stood out from the others that I was considering for our family and friends gathering. Being on holiday, she took all the potential stress right out of our hands so that we could just enjoy being together and sharing the most devine healthy food with our guests. She took food sensitives in her stride, leaving everyone raving about the feast she served. All her dishes were beautifully put together with complimentary tastes giving us the most enjoyable culinary experience. Together with her lovely team of fairies they left the kitchen spotless at the end of the evening. She epitomizes Service with a Smile. When I come back to Cape Town I will come find you. I would not consider using anyone else. With gratitude I Thank You and wish you the success you so deserve in your career.

Angie was truly incredible. From start (planning the menu and the evening) to finish she was so professional and fun. She was unobtrusive in a private home setting which is always hard to find but always happy to chat and laugh when engaged with. She served up the MOST spectacular food - it was mouthwateringly delicious that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. She cleaned up after dinner like there hadn’t even been anyone there. I couldn’t praise or recommend her enough! Thank you Angie! ❤️‍🔥
