I’ve always held a passion for food, even at a young age I had known that I wanted to be a chef. In my life, I’ve strived to be a healthy balanced person, carrying with me a foundation of meditation and spiritual practice. I feel that what we eat is one gateway to achieving this complete nourishment; therefore, it brings me great joy to create flavorful, fresh and wholesome meals. I work closely with farmers who also share my respect and reverence for the oneness of all beings. As a chef with ten years experience and working many angles of the food industry, I am dedicated to creating and teaching others how to prepare food that is conscious and healing. I graduated from Culinary School in San Francisco in 2011 with a Culinary Arts Degree. From there, I worked for restaurants, catering companies, wineries, and retirement communities. I most recently served as an Executive Chef with San Diego State University for the past five years. My other passion is teaching. I offer cooking classes in over twelve different cuisine types. As far as my cooking style goes, I have always enjoyed preparing plant-based and organic dishes with healthy, clean and vibrant ingredients. You can expect to experience dishes full of flavor, utilizing fresh herbs and spices, with a quality presentation to match the taste. Meals I prepare incorporate holistic health with a balance of nutrients, healthy fats, proteins and superfoods.
Plant-Based organic foods are known to keep the body functioning at the highest level: physically, mentally and spiritually. I will be using nutrient rich ingredients to prepare meals packed with super foods to nourish the body, mind and soul. When undertaking a retreat and partaking in plant medicines it is helpful to keep the body in a energetic, healthy, alkaline state to be most clear and receptive for the experience. With a clean vessel through a healthy balanced diet. The reward is increased focus, heighted intention and positive energy resulting in breakthroughs during this retreat, and your personal life.
Chef Jordan was exceptional! My mother and I enjoyed a cooking class with him and even though we’ve been eating plant-based for years, his flavor combinations and creative but easy-to-make recipes will become part of our regular menu. Chef Jordan is knowledgeable, engaging and we would recommend his classes to everyone - you’ll be in for a treat! -Nina
Jordan is an amazing person all the way around. The food we prepared was phenomenal. He taught us amazing recipes and skills in the kitchen. We did the class at his house (he will travel to you as well) and the view was incredible. Highly recommended for anyone and everyone. -Larry
Our experience with Chef Jordan was enjoyable, comfortable, and all around excellent. He is passionate about the craft and is clearly gifted in teaching the craft as well. Aside from learning how to make pasta from scratch, my wife and I learned many simple tips and tricks that are definitely going to raise the bar of our daily cooking experience. I couldn’t recommend Jordan enough! I would take this course all over again. -Benjamin
Such a great time! Amazing food! So fresh and so tasty! So cool to be able to use fresh herbs from his garden! I highly recommend his cooking class! I learned so many great takeaway's from the class! -William
We had such a fun time with Jordan! Not only was the food amazing (some of the best Thai food we’ve had and we’ve been to Thailand), but he taught us some great cooking skills. The ingredients he brought were also very high quality. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday present for my boyfriend. Can’t wait to book again! -Jessie
The depth of these flavors are so mesmerizing. What a great class! It tasted so good and it was so nice to know that I could make it when I went home. I learned so much. Thank you Chef Jordan! -Kristen
