Now based in Barrie with my family, I’m excited to bring that global perspective home. Whether it’s an intimate dinner, a special celebration, or a larger event, I design menus that feel personal and memorable—combining elegance, bold flavor, and impeccable service.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a private dinner, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first bite to the final spoonful of dessert, every course was a masterclass in flavor, balance, and presentation. Beyond the incredible food, the entire experience was seamless and professional. Every dish was thoughtfully explained, beautifully plated, and served with warmth and care. It felt like having a five-star restaurant in the comfort of our own home. If you’re considering a private chef experience, don’t hesitate — this was truly an unforgettable evening of culinary artistry. ⭐️

Chef Andrew was incredible. Everything he did for us went well beyond our expectations. He made our special night one to remember. We included some last minute speeches throughout our meal and Andrew was very patient and accommodating. The food was incredible. We wouldn’t have changed a thing.

As we celebrated 25 years of marriage this year, we decided to treat ourselves and our then best man and matron of honor to a fabulous dinner created by a professional chef. We were fortunate enough to hire Chef Andrew Siebert for this very special moment in time! This could not have been a more perfect experience for the four of us as Chef Andrew continued to wow us through a fabulous four course meal with stunning presentation! Chef Andrew was punctual and beyond professional but more importantly, warm and engaging as he led us through this once in a lifetime culinary experience. A big warm thank you to Chef Andrew for being part of this amazing anniversary celebration. We hope to see you again!

Joe Filippelli

I hired Chef Andrew for our intimate wedding day dinner. He was very responsive and flexible when discussing the menu and I appreciated his consideration for allergies. On the day he showed up early and dinner service started right on time. He took care to explain all components of each dish which were plated nicely and most importantly tasted AMAZING. Chef Andrew was unobtrusive during prep and in between courses, but he was still very friendly and interactive and even made table side ice cream for us to go with our sticky toffee pudding. Overall, I will be hiring Chef Andrew again for any future special events, what a fantastic dinner to close off my wedding day!

We had a bachelorette party with 9 ladies, and Andrew was an incredible chef. We requested an entire gluten free menu, along with a few dairy free dishes. He was able to not only create an incredible 3 course meal with canapés, he was also personable, lovely to interact with, and efficient. We would love to have Andrew for another event. Thank you!
