Love People. Cook Great Food.

Steph's Great Food is a woman owned, Oakland based, business that's mission is to keep busy people nourished!

I LOVE cooking for people!

It's important to me that all types of people and families can have great quality, home cooked, organic, and delightful meals on a weekly basis so please note I offer exceptional prepared meals either A La Carte on Mondays and Thursdays, and to save on cost per meal, please check out my Meal Plan Service!

Do you love PAELLA? WELL, It's now on the menu ANYTIME! Please provide a 5 day turnaround for your order: Pans for 2, 6, or 10 are available for pick up, and pans for 20 or more are available for on-site preparation.

Please visit the Paella page to learn more!

My core values about my cooking for people are:

  • Food is meant to be shared. I believe it is a conduit for creating understanding and peace between people, so my portions are generous, often enough to feed at least two people.

  • Food should be delightful and never boring! Therefore, I am constantly seeking new preparations and rarely repeat menu items; however, if there is something you would like to see again, please be sure to let me know!

  • Food should honor traditions. I believe there are somethings that should be made for holidays, or for seasons, for example, during Crab season, I always make Cioppino and Gumbo, and for St. Pat's Day, I always make Corned Beef and Cabbage, but that is the only time I make these dishes, so to know, they are special, and not to miss out!

  • Food should always be prepared to it's highest potential, with high-quality, fresh, organic, seasonal ingredients that are locally sourced.

I am also available for catering events up to 100 people, and will work with you to create a fabulous menu.

Thank you for visiting and I look forward to cooking for you!
