Food has always been personal to me. My culinary foundation began as a young girl immersed in the rhythms of a kitchen. My name is Gianna - Gigi to my friends and family - and I come from a four-generation family of restauranteurs, where the kitchen was both a workplace and a gathering place. My brothers and I grew up in our Italian family-owned business, Caffe Capri. I learned early on that cooking is more than a recipe - it’s about care, consistency, and connection.
After years of school and working behind the restaurant line, I have transitioned into private events and boutique catering, cultivating my passion into customized experiences that feel both refined and heartfelt. My private chef services are intentional, focusing on seasonal, quality ingredients, and are rooted in the tradition of bringing people together around the table.

Private chef services are perfect for your next intimate dinner, weekly meal plan, or in-home celebration. I will design and prepare personalized menus that cater to your preferences, dietary needs, and culinary tastes — all from the comfort of your kitchen.
For those looking for boutique catering, I offer full-service solutions for elegant soirées, bridal showers, corporate lunches, and brunches. My event catering focuses on small gatherings, ensuring that quality, presentation, and hospitality truly shine with a creative, seasonal menu and meticulous attention to detail.
