Cooking with Ease: Reclaim Your Right to Culinary Delight

Ana Larrauri-Rosato brings a love of life and a sparkling vitality to all that she does. The personal chef has had an interesting journey, beginning in the Northern part of Spain and a former profession in business. After going through a corporate restructure, Ana decided to create a career from her love of cooking, a skill learned from her mother.

"I took a course for three weeks that helped me to figure out my goals. I love cooking; that is my passion, and I like doing my own thing, in my own time," explains Ana. A livelihood as a personal chef was the perfect choice for Ana, who trained on-line for six months to gain the credentials to become registered with the Canadian Personal Chef Alliance and the United States Personal Chef Association.

Some of her clients are met as Ana participants in Home Shows in the Toronto area, whipping up her dishes in the kitchens, to the delight of all. Ana offers her services in Halton and the GTA, basically anywhere that is an hour drive from Mississauga.

Facets of Ana’s services include: creating meal plans, providing meals for romantic occasions, dinner parties, seniors meal plans, and hosting buffet luncheons for birthdays and showers. All services include:

Personal consultation
Menu planning
Food shopping
Meal preparation
Packing individual meals

Ana’s emphasis on using fresh ingredients, without preservatives, and preparing food in clients’ home from “scratch” is what makes her stand out in her field. Recently I had the pleasure of sampling a two course lunch prepared by Ana, consisting of mushroom chicken and herb rice, complimented by a dessert of crème caramel and fresh raspberries. I discovered that the fresh mushrooms brought out the savory taste of the chicken. The crème caramel melted in my mouth, creating a culinary ecstasy due to the use of fresh ripe raspberries.
