I create healthy comfort food that fits your dietary needs—so you can enjoy flavorful meals and unforgettable moments.

Celeste Gross

I cook vibrant, nourishing comfort food tailored to you.

After graduating from culinary school 12 years ago, my journey has been extensive and deeply fulfilling. I specialize in meals designed for very specific dietary needs—nightshade-free, pescatarian, vegan, keto, paleo, low-carb, plant-based, Whole30, macrobiotic, sugar-free, and diabetes-friendly—without ever sacrificing flavor, texture, or satisfaction.

I’m self-taught at heart and constantly learning through travel, research, and experimentation in my own kitchen. My style leans into healthy comfort food with a broad range of influences, including Asian-inspired dishes, kosher cuisine, Middle Eastern flavors, Brazilian cuisine, American classics, and farm-to-table California cooking—always using colorful vegetables and the freshest, most organic, wholesome ingredients.

Cooking is bringing people together—making amazing memories and teasing your tastebuds.

What you can expect when I cook for you

I cook to connect people

For me, cooking is about bringing people together—creating amazing memories and teasing your tastebuds with bold flavors and satisfying textures.

I learned by cooking at home first

I started learning to cook at home with my mom. With seven kids, she lived in the kitchen, and I became her helper—those early days built my instincts, my work ethic, and my love for feeding people well.

My secret is simple and honest

My philosophy is straightforward: lots of garlic and lemon and love. I keep flavors bright, ingredients wholesome, and every dish made with real care.
