The Chef.

Chef Niketa

Chef Niketa is a culinary expert who is truly passionate about flavor. Originally from California, she blends the best of the West Coast with the rich influences of the South, inherited from her Louisianan father. With versatile skills across cuisines, she takes great pride in creating the perfect menu for each client's preferences and requirements.

Having worked across the NBA and NFL, Chef Niketa has served as private chef and performance chef to athletes including Trae Young, Darius Garland, Tristan Thompson, Peyton Watson, Kayvon Thibodeaux, Ben Simmons, Todd Gurley, Pascal Siakam, Mack Wilson, Tyrod Taylor, D.J. Humphries, Talen Horton-Tucker, Jordan Fuller, Josh Okogie, Kenny Young, and Eric Moreland — helping them prioritize sports performance nutrition on and off the field — and as private chef to entertainment figures including Khloé Kardashian and Freddie Gibbs.

But it's not just athletes who benefit. Every client receives the same level of attention and personalized menus — whether it's a private dining experience at home, catering for an event, performance-based athlete meals, customized meal prep, or craft services.
