There’s no one concept that surrounds what food can do for you more than a sense of closeness. At least that’s the defining mission of the cooking of Chef Amanda Lee.As a private chef, Amanda is driven to provide people with the best food possible.
This passion was born early cooking at the side of her grandfather in Louisiana and formally refined under the finest instruction at Le Cordon Bleu in Boston. That wealth of knowledge and love is apparent in Amanda’s philosophy of health and happiness through food. She believes that nourishment doesn’t need to be a compromise. It can be delicious, communal, and healing all at the same time.
Following her formal studies, Chef Amanda made her first professional impact as sous chef for Kombu Kitchen in Boston, which was a journey through learning the vibrant diversity possible in vegan cuisine. Nurturing a desire to have a sense of closeness to the people who were eating her food, Amanda would return to the South in 2014 to begin offering private chef services in Nashville. She also spent time lending her broad knowledge of world cuisine to the California-based foodservice company, Nybll, serving as Creative Director. In this role, Chef Amanda designed menus that reflected the cuisine of dozens of cultures that would be fed to California’s premier corporations and sports teams.
All of these experiences have led to Amanda leading a charge towards cooking food in a way that brings wellness and joy to the people enjoying it. Her offerings are built to help people eat in a way that helps them, whether it be meeting specific diets, healing needs, or simply just the modern busy schedules we’re all faced with.
No matter what you or the ones close to you need in order to eat in a way that will help your life just be a little bit more focused, Chef Amanda Lee is dedicated to helping you achieve those goals!
