Meet Chef Abyssinia
Executive Chef
Abyssinia discovered her love for cooking at the age of 10 and quickly became fascinated with the culinary arts. She pursued her passion and joined a culinary arts program in high school that unknowingly set her on a path to culinary success.
She received a bachelor's degree in Culinary Arts and Food Service Management from Johnson and Wales University, where she also studied pastry arts. Always eager to learn more, Abyssinia traveled to Germany to study wine before returning home to New York..…….

Absolutely amazingly delicious food. Chef Abyssinia catered my daughter’s birthday party for about 50 people last weekend and everyone loved her food. This is my second event she catered. Her salmon is so good, ribs is made to perfection, seasonal veggies is the best veggies you will ever have, even the pickiest eaters will love it. You get the idea, everything she makes is phenomenal. Her and her team are very friendly and professional and pay attention to detail and she’s very easy to work with. She will be my go to for any event that I have.

We had a wonderful experience working with Chef Abyssinia, who prepared a memorable vegetarian tasting menu for an 8-guest dinner party at my home. The food was incredible, with gorgeous presentation and a perfectly paced service. Everything about the process was convenient and enjoyable because of her pleasant, joyful nature, from developing the menu, to the food prep and cleanup. Punctual, professional, and a truly talented chef, highly recommended and we look forward to working with her in the future!

Chef Abyssinia was terrific! I set up a cooking class for 4 people for my wife's birthday. The food was delicious, she did an excellent job working with my wife and two adult kids, and we really enjoyed ourselves. The communication in advance and payment process was seamless, and she texted me on the way to let me know she was running a few minutes late, so she's obviously responsible and conscientious. I recommend her highly and will definitely plan on using her again.
