I absolutely love what I do, and cannot wait to create a custom meal just for you!

Meet The Chef

Hi! I'm Melissa, and I like to put a personal touch on all that I do, hence the name 'Via Melissa'.

I'm a natural born recipe developer, that's been cooking for as long as I can remember.  I attended a culinary program along the way to hone up my skills and technique. 

Whether you are looking for a traditional hearty meal, or a lighter, healthier feast (sans gluten & dairy) I've got you covered!  My services range from cooking classes to event catering & being your personal chef for a night (or longer!).

​

Some past events include: baby showers, corporate cooking classes, Sweet 16's, bachelorette parties, cooking demos & summer BBQ's.

 

Feel free to review my sample menu's on here, and contact me for additional dish inquiries.  

​

PS -Did I mention I've been on Dr. Oz, and have developed recipes for numerous websites & publications?
