About Argentina Chef

Authentic Argentine Cuisine | Meal Prep, Homemade Meals & Personalized Catering Discover the traditional flavors of Argentina without having to travel. I specialize in authentic Argentine cuisine, with culinary training and professional experience working in prestigious hotels and food establishments since 2021 in Georgia, Virginia, and South Carolina, including the Charleston area. My passion for cooking began at a young age, preparing homemade recipes alongside my mother, where I learned that every dish has a story and that food has the power to bring people together. I currently offer authentic Argentine homemade meals, weekly meal prep, and personalized catering services, bringing traditional flavors to the community through carefully prepared dishes made with quality ingredients and professional attention to detail. My goal is to provide something truly unique: an authentic Argentine food experience for those looking to discover new flavors, enjoy traditional recipes, or reconnect with the comforting taste of a homemade meal. Some of my specialties include: Argentine Favorites & Appetizers • Homemade Argentine empanadas, especially knife-cut beef empanadas, prepared with juicy beef, onions, peppers, hard-boiled eggs, and olives. • Argentine choripán, featuring grilled chorizo served in bread with traditional chimichurri sauce. Traditional Main Courses • Homemade milanesa served with mashed potatoes, rice, or other side dishes. • Milanesa a la Napolitana, a breaded beef cutlet topped with tomato sauce, ham, and melted cheese. • Argentine asado with chimichurri, featuring traditional grilled meats and authentic Argentine barbecue flavors. • Bifes a la criolla, slow-cooked beef with potatoes, onions, peppers, and tomato sauce. • Locro criollo, a traditional Argentine stew made with white corn, beans, squash, pork, and chorizo. Homemade Pasta & Comfort Food • Argentine sorrentinos and ravioli, filled with options such as ham and cheese, ricotta and walnut, or vegetables, served with traditional sauces like tomato fileto, cream sauce, pesto, or other options. • Homemade pasta dishes prepared with authentic Argentine flavors. Argentine Pies & Pizza • Pascualina, a traditional savory pastry filled with spinach or Swiss chard, ricotta cheese, onions, and whole eggs. • Argentine-style pizza, known for its soft, fluffy crust and generous amount of cheese. • Fugazzeta, a classic Argentine pizza made with plenty of mozzarella cheese and a generous layer of onions on top. In addition to these traditional dishes, I prepare weekly meal plans and customized menus tailored to each client’s preferences and needs, including healthy options and complete meals for those who want to save time without sacrificing quality or flavor. Every dish combines my professional culinary experience, my Argentine heritage, and my love for homemade cooking, creating an authentic, personalized, and memorable food experience. Bring a taste of Argentina to your table.

Reviews

“Valeria is an excellent chef. She has a strong worth ethic. She strives to make all her food taste and look delicious. She listens carefully to what you request as a client and makes it become a reality. I had her cater for a private dinner party and everything was excellent. She made a scrumptious truffle risotto, chicken & steak dinner with micro greens. All of our guest loved the food and the plating. I would recommend her to anyone.”
