My name is Kelly, professional chef and founder of Kelly's Clean Kitchen. I specialize in healthy whole foods made delicious for dinner parties, events, retreats and private chef needs. I was professionally trained at The Culinary Institute of America and have worked in top restaurants in California. My style of cooking is California cuisine, highlighting seasonal ingredients that are farm to table! My niche is in speciality diets, whether that be macros for bodybuilders, vegan, gluten free, allergen friendly, paleo, whole 30, to just wanting to be overall healthy. I myself am celiac, so it is my goal to make allergen friendly food delicious! If you need a private chef for an event, dinner party, weekend retreat, or cooking lessons, please reach out! Also feel free to check out my instagram + Tiktok @kellyscleankitchen and website for further pictures and videos of my creations!

After years of working as a Private Chef in California, Chris’ reputation for great food and amazing customer service was getting him noticed. In 2006, he introduced Chris Brugler Catering which quickly found its place as one of Los Angeles’ premier caterers. With clients like Disney, Valentino, Volkswagon, Netflix, Cartier, and Tory Burch; Chris Brugler Catering is on the forefront of culinary excellence. With Chris at the helm of so many large events he has had the opportunity to train and create great relationships with cooks who became chefs that eventually ran large scale events for Chris when he had multiple events on the same night. Chris never would have imagined doing so many dinners each weekend from LA, Palm Springs to San Diego but he is positioned perfectly by calling on his amazing team that he has cultivated over the last 15 years to be the executing onsite chef. Chris has taken the positive out of the current situation and shifted his focus to growing the business, client relations and handling all of the prep and organization so the consistency is the same for each dinner. This also allows his large team to continue to work and thrive in these uncertain times. Not being the executing chef on every dinner has allowed him more time with his son Oliver (AKA O Dog) who loves being in the kitchen and creating his own recipes and plating style. Chris uses locally sourced, seasonal products and prides himself on using nothing but the finest and freshest ingredients to deliver you an unforgettable meal. Now with catering and private chef services that extend nationwide, Chris Brugler is a household name. With more than 20 years of experience, Chris Brugler's passion for food has never wavered. He has been working diligently on recipes for those in need of clean and healthy dining options as well, knowing that you don't have to sacrifice flavor to eat healthy. He established safe handling and food service practices that needed no change to comply with recent pandemic guidelines and has ensured clean, safe, and wipeable storage for his delivery services as well. Pandemic Guidelines: Our team takes temperature upon arrival, prior to entering the clients home Maintains 6 feet of social distancing Sanitize work space before, throughout, and after use Wears masks Wears gloves Ensures proper food handling and follows all CDC Guidelines
