Meet your chef

Hi, I'm Kari.

I cook the kind of dinner you'd remember from a great restaurant — but at your own table, with the ocean breeze coming in. I shop the local markets each morning, cook everything from scratch in your villa, and leave the kitchen exactly as I found it.

Costa Rican soul, international technique, and steaks I'm a little famous for. Your vacation should taste like a celebration.

— Kari

Sunset. Your villa. Dinner, handled.

Perfect for honeymoons, birthdays, family trips and celebrations — right where you're already staying.

Questions, answered

What's included in the price?

Everything: menu planning, grocery shopping, cooking in your villa, serving, and full cleanup. The per-person price is the price — no surprise grocery receipts.

Is there a minimum number of guests?

Most dinners are for 2 or more. For larger groups and celebrations the per-person price works beautifully. Message me with your group size and I'll confirm.

Can you handle allergies and diets?

Absolutely — vegetarian, gluten-free, kids' plates and allergies are no problem. Just tell me when you book and I'll tailor the menu.

How far ahead should I book?

In high season (Dec–Apr) book 2–4 weeks ahead if you can. Last-minute? Message me anyway — I'll do my best to fit you in.

What do you need in the villa?

Just a working kitchen and a table. I bring the ingredients, the skills, and the good vibes. I'll confirm details when you book.
