Welcome to Chef Nicole Votano’s World

Hi, I’m Nicole—a private chef, culinary consultant, and passionate foodie who’s been lucky enough to cook, travel, and create in kitchens all over the world. My journey has taken me from cheffing in celebrity recording studios to crafting custom food brands for legends like DJ Khaled and Martha Stewart. Along the way, I’ve learned that food isn’t just about what’s on the plate; it’s about creating experiences that spark connection, joy, and lasting memories.

One of my proudest moments? Leading the largest brand launch in history, rolling out 500 locations across five continents in just two weeks. It was a wild ride, but it proved that food has the power to unite people on a global scale.

As a mom, I understand that food is a constant evolution, whether it’s crafting meals that satisfy changing tastes or finding that perfect balance of nutrition and indulgence for a growing family. But what truly excites me is sharing the magic of food with everyone—whether you’re here to explore new recipes, discover the best ingredients, or dream about your next food-focused adventure.

I’m thrilled to share my culinary world with you. Let’s cook, eat, and explore together!
