Get to know me better

Passionate private chef blending Cajun roots with modern healthy cuisine and professional hospitality.

I’m Chef Brad, an executive chef and restaurant manager with over 13 years of experience specializing in Cajun and Italian cuisine. Throughout my career I’ve led high-volume kitchens, managed upscale restaurants and wedding venues, created original menus, and catered events serving more than 400 guests.

I previously served as Executive Chef and Kitchen Manager at Maglieaux’s Riverfront Restaurant and Riverside Reserve in Louisiana, where I focused on elevated Southern cuisine, hospitality, staff leadership, and cost-efficient kitchen operations. My work has been featured on Food Paradise, Louisiana Cookin Magazine, and Cenla Focus Magazine for standout Louisiana dishes and culinary creativity.

Today I operate Chef Brad Foods, offering private chef services, luxury catering, healthy meal prep, and personalized dining experiences with a focus on bold flavor, professionalism, and memorable hospitality. I hold a current ServSafe Manager Certification and take pride in creating food that brings people together.
