The recipe for life is Love
“I truly love being a Chef, everyday I am blessed to use my imagination to discover new original ideas by unleashing my creative energy. Note: Look for ways that you can serve others! Always know your Goals in Life should take Root within the boundaries of God’s plan for you. Most importantly, “The Power of Food” has been the true Celebrity in my career, it is the common denominator that connects us all beyond culture and race!”
~- Chef Rey

For 18 years as a professional chef, Chef Rey has been blessed to have worked for some of the most premier artists performers, athletes, and served as Executive Team Chef for three of the Major Sport Teams (Houston Astros, Houston Rockets and Houston Dynamos), in the 4th largest city of our nation. It is true that behind every family there is a generation of great family recipes. “The Power of Food” is more than a slogan, it proves Chef Rey’s signature tagline “The Recipe for Life is Love.”

The Elite Performer’s Chef

“Chef Rey is the athletes’ chef in addition to the Performing Artists as well. He has worked as a private chef for many of the best athletes AND ARTISTS in the world. It is only great performance based food if it tastes good and clearly the evidence speaks for itself. Modifying recipes to meet an athlete’s individual goal or a team goal is central to performance based nutrition. Chef Rey can take traditional high fat foods and modify them to fit the performance template. Although there are many great chefs in the country, few can make leaner food taste like gourmet food from the best restaurant. This is not only unusual· it is an art. Welcome to the world of Chef Rey!”
