Our Founders
Authentic Private Chef Experiences Inspired by Costa Rica
Our story began on the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica, where Maikol Arce and Margarita Gomez grew up surrounded by family traditions, fresh local ingredients, and a deep love for cooking. From an early age, the kitchen became more than a place to prepare food — it became a place to bring people together.
Today, that same passion is shared through personalized private chef experiences in Santa Teresa, Mal País, and Playa Hermosa. Every menu is thoughtfully crafted using fresh seafood, tropical fruits, local produce, and international influences to create unforgettable dining experiences inside villas, vacation homes, and private events.
For Maikol and Margarita, cooking is more than a service — it is about creating meaningful moments, sharing Costa Rican hospitality, and delivering experiences guests will remember long after the final course.
