Schweitzer Klassifikation
Robin Goldstein is a California chef who works her culinary magic combining unique flavor and spices with local seasonal produce and product, to create an unforgettable culinary experience for the palate and on the plate, in private homes and public venues. Known as "Private Chef Robin" to celebrity and private clients alike, Robin has made a career of providing an intimate, home-cooked experience that is anything but traditional home-cooked food. Robin uses classic techniques she honed at the Culinary Institute of America in New York. Born and raised in the Washington DC area, she ate her way through the city's most prominent restaurants. Her early exposure to fine dining at her grandparents' restaurant along with her food-loving family sparked her lifelong passion and love of cooking. Chef Robin moved to California in 1984, and gained experience working in private homes as well as owning a full service catering and event planning business, MarketCatering. Through travel and living abroad for a number of years, she has developed and fine-tuned her California-Mediterranean cooking style, with an emphasis on Middle Eastern flavors.
Robin lives in an oak shaded neighborhood in the Ojai Valley, surrounded by nature and the scenic beauty of the local mountains that Ojai is famed for.
