About Devour-creative cuisine

For over 16 years, I’ve specialized in truly personalized catering, private chef services, and in‑home cooking lessons. I don’t believe in “standardized” menus or cookie‑cutter events—every menu and design detail is created just for you, based on what matters most to you and your guests. I only book one event at a time so you receive my full attention from planning through clean‑up. You’ll never feel like you’re part of a factory. My goal is always to exceed your expectations and make you feel genuinely cared for. Cooking is both my passion and my meditation, and I bring that care and calm into every kitchen I step into. If you’re looking for a warm, detail‑focused partner for your next event or a private cooking experience, I’d love to talk.

Marisa's food is healthy and flavorful! She takes feedback well and really tries to accommodates all our preferences. She clearly loves cooking for people and she's a joy to work with.

I hired Marisa to cook dinner for me and 10 friends at my home in Noe Valley. Marisa was able to design a menu that fit with my needs. The food was very good and Marisa did a nice job plating it, which she suggested. Marisa arrived on time but the food took a bit longer than expected to be prepared and served. I would hire Marisa again for a straightforward dinner party for friends. It was a great way to spend a Friday night.

Marisa was to help 20 women at a wedding shower cook 4 meals to be served for lunch. Her menu was fabulous, and her generosity of spirit in working with me phenomenal-a bit disorganized at the site, but there were a lot of people and instruction for the cooking was difficult. It didn't help that timing to get there by all, including her, was compromised by the Bay to Breakers race!
