About Me

My name is Serena and I am a freelance chef working from Auchterarder. My mother hated cooking so as soon as I showed any interest in cooking, the kitchen was my own. I have three children and one small, adorable terrier called Truffle and I am married to a chef!

Having over 30 years of experience in Scottish heritage, food and drink business - private dinners, weddings, I have cooked for royalty, shooting and fishing lodges.  I enjoy playing golf and had an amazing time private cheffing for five of the top golf professionals at the Scottish Open at the Renaissance Club.   I love Scotland and what I do.  I work with clients who expect the very best, using Scotland's fabulous produce.  

Scotland has the most amazing larder, varied meat, fish, shellfish, fresh vegetables and fabulous fruit. I always try and find the best products in season when putting together the menus. I love cooking and love the enjoyment families, customers, friends get eating what I have created.

I also offer weekly menus for home dining delivered to your doorstep, be it a date night, a celebration, a virtual company dinner, or a 'just because I deserve it' night!  All menus arrive pre-cooked and chilled and can be delivered UK wide, only re-heating required and full instructions are included in the box! Sit back, pour your glass and enjoy!

I cater for individuals, small groups, weddings, hen parties, celebrations dinners.  Whether you are looking to celebrate a special occasion at home, a wedding in the Scottish Highlands, or to cater for your holiday home, I can provide a delicious culinary experience for you .
