About Jason

Jason Silverman

Jason Silverman is a private chef serving all of greater Los Angeles. He specializes in sourcing the finest local, seasonal ingredients and treating them simply to highlight their innate natural expression.

With a focus on the rustic cuisines of the Mediterranean Jason fuses ancient traditions with the bounty of Southern California to create rich, nutrient dense and soul warming food.

Jason was recommended to us by a friend who’d been a guest at a dinner he cooked for because she was so impressed with his meal. Now that we have worked with Jason for the last few months and challenged him with every single dietary limitation imaginable and several ethnic cuisines, we can recommend him even more wholeheartedly. He’s a pleasure to have in our home and spectacular in presentation and demeanor.”

"A recipe has no soul. You, as the cook, must bring soul to the recipe."

– Thomas Keller

Jason believes a great cook is first a great eater.  Harnessing an unyielding love of all things edible Jason developed his culinary passion as a young child.  He was exposed to new and exotic flavors through his adolescence and early adulthood cementing his drive down a path of a life in food.

A native New Yorker, Jason was inspired by the bounty of the Santa Monica Farmer’s Market, journeyed west and began cooking in LA in 2006.  He lives in Glassell Park with his wife Kay and their two dogs, Cooper and Saffron.

Jason has been an enormous help to our family. We have a multitude of food allergies and the kitchen had become a stressful place for us. Jason works with us to create menus that are healthy, delicious and safe for us to eat. Food is fun again! We highly recommend working with Jason.”
