Scott Rosen
Hey, I’m Scott, the chef and creator behind BiteTalk Live. I built BiteTalk around the food people actually crave: fresh pasta, birria tacos, steakhouse favorites, sushi, pizza, and the meals people keep talking about after the plates are cleared.
My private chef experiences bring that same energy into your home. I handle the planning, cooking, presentation, and kitchen reset while you enjoy the food and the people you invited.

What Is Included
Private chef nights should feel like a plan came together around you, not like you inherited a second job.
Meal prep uses the listed package prices, with ingredients billed separately at cost and a $50 reservation credited toward the balance. Private events are quoted per person based on the menu, group size and service style. Your proposal confirms the booking minimum, inclusions, total and payment terms.

We shape the menu and experience around your household, event, and budget.
After your menu and price are confirmed, reserve meal prep with at least $50 credited toward the balance. Event booking payments are set out in your proposal.
For events, I cook and keep the timing moving. For meal prep, you receive your selected ready-to-cook or fully cooked dinners, labeled with cooking or reheating instructions. Kitchen cleanup is included.
