Hi, I’m Shirley
I’m a Albuquerque, New Mexico-based private chef from France dedicated to ensuring hosts can trust that their guests will have an unforgettable and inspiring experience, ultimately leaving everyone nourished in body and soul.
For years my life was split between France and southern California, but I now live in ABQ and serve all of northern New Mexico, as well as across the U.S. and beyond.
I not only create delicious and beautiful meals but also deeply care about making people feel seen, nourished, and taken care of on every level.
There is intention and love woven into every bite of food I create.
Working with Shirley is such a seamless and collaborative effort from start to finish but my goodness do I feel wonderful after days of eating her food.
She makes everyone (including the retreat leaders) feel so nourished and taken care of, it’s remarkable. After every Retreat, we all can’t believe we need to go home and remember how to feed ourselves!

My Philosophy
Growing up in France, food has always been a great connector, the thing that brings people together, to share, to laugh, to be vulnerable, and to experience pleasure and joy.
My role as a chef is to facilitate this.
Through healing my own struggles with food and health, I developed a deep understanding and culinary mastery of various food allergies/restrictions and dietary protocols (gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, paleo, keto, etc.).
Feeling safe to eat enables people to reframe stories around food (and life!) allowing them to move beyond a restrictive mindset to an abundant one.
