Welcome to the official website of Chef Stuart O’Keeffe! This site is run by my team and I, and it’s here that I’ll be keeping you up to date with information on cooking well, and eating healthfully. Of course, I’ll include a blog spot where I will keep you informed about the latest trends in the kitchen including new, innovative products and the freshest ingredients of the season. Let’s get started!

Culinary Arts

By the time I was seven years of age I had become a right handy sous-chef; around eleven, my cooking instruction expanded to include my aunt’s kitchen where I would abandon my homework in favor of helping her bake lavish pastries and pies. No one knew this would turn into an avid fascination leading to a BA in Culinary Arts from the Dublin Institute of Technology. There, my natural interest, joy and intrinsic abilities merged with a classical, formal education. Being in close proximity to France and its abundance of culinary history and influence, as well as having the opportunity to travel extensively throughout Europe while in school, enriched this experience.

Coming to the US

I moved to America to expand my career and have recently become the spokesperson for Tupperware, a prestigious brand that we all know and love. I’m privileged to travel around the country offering advice on healthy cooking as well as ideas for getting the most out of Tupperware products.

The FoodNetwork

The project I have most recently become involved in is a new series appearing on Foodnetwork entitled “Private Chefs of Beverly Hills”, where I’ll be catering to the high profile clientele of this prestigious Los Angeles neighborhood. It is a challenging task, but a very rewarding one where I am able to present my food to some very discerning palates.

Education the Key to My Success

However, none of my successes would be possible without the education I received. I am eternally grateful to have had the opportunity to work with great chefs and educators at my college, and my appreciation of the foundation that was laid there stirs my desires to pass along my knowledge and skills. I came to America with these words in mind: get moving and get in that kitchen!
