Specialties
We create interactive, team-based personal chef experiences in our client's homes for intimate groups of 6-10 people. I am your Chef and my partner is your Emcee. We invite you into the kitchen indulging your tastebuds and where unforgettable memories await you.
While I learned to work in high-pressure, fast-paced environments, my sweet spot is creating loving and delicious culinary experiences for intimate groups of friends and family. It's the home kitchen where we live our purpose of empowering people to feel joy and connection with their food and with one another.
We love living in Boulder, one of the fittest cities in America. When we are not skiing or bike riding, you can find us in our own kitchen cooking healthy meals for our family. We are sensitive to wheat, nut and dairy allergies. And generally, love living a Paleo Lifestyle.
History

Cheryll and Gerald started Zesty Experience from their love of strengthening relationships through food. After cooking in fine dining restaurants for years and working for caterers, they uncovered their passion for creating interactive, in-home culinary experiences for intimate groups of people.
Cheryll is your Emcee and Gerald is your Chef for the evening. Both invite you into your kitchen indulging your tastebuds and where unforgettable memories await. From the initial appointment and menu design to dishes and clean up, it is easy to work with Zesty Experience.
Personalized and responsive service is the first step to your personal chef experience in the Denver/Boulder area.
Meet the Business Owner: Cheryll G.
An engineer by day and lover of beverages by night, Cheryll is the talk of every one of our events. While she enjoys just about every kind of food and libation, she is no stranger to many of today's nutritional needs.
As the mother of a son with multiple food allergies, Cheryll knows the importance of cooking for everyone. Never wanting her boy to feel excluded, she has made everything from simple nut-free cookies to elaborate gluten-free cake decorating a work of art. Because it's not just about serving the obligatory vegetarian meal. It's about making everyone feel included no matter what they bring to the table. So all her guests can have that feeling of joy and connection.
When Cheryll is not cooking or entertaining, she applies her engineering education to the decidedly unscientific pursuit of raising her empowered daughter and son.
