Coastal Provisioning & Private Chef
Based in Southwest Harbor on Mount Desert Island, I create the kind of welcome people remember. I provision summer homes, holiday cottages, and yachts, prepare them beautifully for arrival, and offer private chef services shaped by coastal living. From intimate dinners to children’s cooking lessons to relaxed evenings with friends, I handle every detail with warmth, discretion, and an eye for what makes a space feel both special and effortlessly inviting.
My creativity also extends beyond the kitchen. I design bespoke logos and brand identities for small businesses and personal ventures, bringing the same instinct for beauty, clarity, and attention to detail that guides every table, kitchen, and thoughtfully prepared space.
Thoughtfully Provisioned. Beautifully Prepared
Arrive to a thoughtfully stocked kitchen, tailored to your preferences and the season. From pantry staples to market-fresh produce, local seafood, and special requests, everything is sourced and arranged with care so your time on the Maine coast begins effortlessly.
Seasonal, globally inspired meals prepared in the comfort of your home or summer rental. Whether an intimate dinner or a relaxed gathering, each menu is curated around fresh ingredients, beautiful presentation, and seamless hospitality.
Hands-on cooking experiences designed especially for young chefs. Through seasonal recipes and simple techniques, children build confidence in the kitchen while learning where food comes from and how to prepare it with care. Fun, engaging, and rooted in real skills.
Thoughtful, bespoke logo and brand design for small businesses and creative ventures. I create refined visual identities that feel authentic, intentional, and quietly distinctive. From concept to final files, each detail is considered to ensure your brand feels cohesive and confident.
The Crew
I’m Natalie, the Mother of Dragons, and along with my pint-sized protégés, Colwyn (the Wadadli Dragon) and Brenin (the Cubano Dragon), we believe food should be joyful, a little adventurous, and shared with the people you love.
With their wild imaginations, endless energy, and my love for fresh, flavorful ingredients, we turn kitchens into playgrounds. From seaside suppers to campfire feasts, and hands-on cooking with young chefs, my philosophy is simple: cooking should be beautiful, relaxed, and full of laughter.
Dive into our story and get ready to cook, gather, and savor with us.
