About Simoni
Simoni hails from Memphis, TN with roots in Burundi, Africa. He grew up with a love for cooking but started taking his passion seriously when he worked for a restaurant in Fayetteville, AR during college. With stops at popular neighborhood haunts such as Burger UP and Josephine,he now cooks full-time as a private chef. He helps clients achieve memorable and unique dining experiences from the comfort of their home.
Simoni lives, breathes, & evangelizes the art of food + community. He often says “all food tells a story.” Whether it’s where the ingredients come from, the creative vision for the meal, or the memories created around the table, he believes well-prepared food fosters narrative.
The table has been a long-time historical symbol of shared experience and community. When he prepares a meal, he sees it as an opportunity to cultivate this notion. His hope is when guests leave their seats, they’ve laughed loudly, relished new flavors, created a shared memory, and been inspired to gather around their own tables more often.
