Description:

Greetings! I am Marissa Coda and since 2012, I have been providing personalized culinary services to clients in Northern New Jersey & New York City. Having been trained at the Natural Gourmet Institute for Health & Culinary Arts in Manhattan, I excel in crafting customized menus that cater to my clients’ tastes, dietary restrictions, and even their favourite dishes from restaurants. It is my passion to create exclusive menus that showcase my creative flair for menu planning. I am committed to using whole, local, organic, and minimally-processed ingredients to prepare nourishing, comforting, and indulgent dishes for my clients. My experience in the culinary industry spans 22 years, during which I have worked with highly regarded establishments like Serendipity Catering, Mrs. Erb’s Good Food, and Dinosaur BBQ among others, and served as the head chef at Beacon Natural in the Hudson Valley before establishing Catering by Marissa LLC. As an expert personal chef, I can whip up delectable cuisine from around the world. I have also broadened my repertoire by catering multi-coursed plated dinner parties over the last seven years. With great attention to detail, every dish is crafted to suit my hosts’ unique preferences and tastes. I would be thrilled to join you for an intimate farm-to-table-style dinner party or to serve you as your trusted personal chef.

Without Marissa, I don't think I would've made it. Working with her was a complete pleasure as she was not only highly skilled and proficient but also very amiable. She was always ready to step up and assist me with anything I needed. It's difficult to envision how I would've managed to cater to 26 guests on Thanksgiving had it not been for her. I'm eager to reach out to her again for help. Thank you so much, Marissa!

Marissa is an exceptional individual. She ensures that she pays close attention when discussing your menu and dietary requirements. Her creativity and enthusiasm are apparent when collaborating with you. Her culinary creations are remarkable, nutritious and delectable. In all the years I've worked with her, I've never been let down and my family is equally fond of her. Be sure to ask for her chocolate chip cookies, they are absolutely divine!

Marissa was not only an exceptional personal chef, but a pleasure to collaborate with. Each week, she meticulously crafted menus tailored to our preferences - especially important as we were in the midst of wedding preparation and seeking healthy, delectable options to fuel our fitness routines. While we were saddened to part ways upon our relocation to the West Coast, our time with Marissa was unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend her services as both a consummate culinary artist and wonderful human being.

Marissa is an exceptional culinary specialist. Her creations are consistently delectable! Despite my family's dietary restrictions and finicky preferences, she's skilled at creating personalized menus that account for health, lifestyle, and taste. We've employed her cooking services for several years, and her business is managed with the utmost professionalism. I would choose all of the options listed above - quality, professionalism, responsiveness, excellent value, and punctuality - if possible. I strongly recommend her services!
