I create international cuisine infused with Jamaican Caribbean herbs and spices, always aiming to exceed your expectations in both food and hospitality.

Andrew Geddes

I bring Jamaican soul to international cuisine, using fresh ingredients and bold island flavor.

I’m Jamaican-born, and I specialize in international cuisine flavored and infused with the natural Jamaican Caribbean herbs and spices I grew up with. I learned many of Jamaica’s best-known dishes from my grandmother, mother, and father from a very young age, cooking for a large family and guests while being supervised.

I’m a professionally trained, certified chef with over 20 years of experience across hospitality, hotels, and restaurants. My training includes H.E.A.R.T Runaway Bay in St. Ann’s, plus guidance from Executive Chef Mark Scott and French Chef Pierre Battagiere in a 5-star setting. I’ve worked as a Sous Chef, Gardemanger, Pastry Chef, and Executive Chef, and today I focus on personal chef experiences where I can tailor every detail to you.

Plan your menu with me

My secret in the kitchen is understanding and listening to my guest so I can exceed expectations every time.

What you can expect when you cook with me

I cook with joy and the freshest ingredients

Cooking is my way of serving others, and I find real joy in creating meals with the freshest ingredients—then layering in Jamaican herbs and spices for a memorable finish.

I’m trained by experience, from home kitchens to hotels

I learned to cook at home, then built my foundation in high school studying food and nutrition, and continued at vocational culinary school (H.E.A.R.T Runaway Bay) focused on hotel and restaurant excellence.

I listen first, then I exceed expectations

My philosophy is simple: I listen carefully and understand what you want, so I can personalize the experience and consistently exceed your expectations.

Chef Andrew is a TREAT! He ensured that my friends and I had an amazing experience in Jamaica. He prepared an AMAZING birthday dinner filled with flavors and textures that had our tastebuds dreaming of his meals all day. The traditional Jamaican jerk chicken, ox tails, with peas and rice was full of spices and flavors that we enjoyed guessing the spices and flavors that were used. Our favorite meal was the egg fried rice, mango fish, Roasted chicken, and stir-fry vegetables! It was beyond amazing. The mix of flavors! I'm still thinking about this meal. Chef Andrew even creates menus to go with your themes. I had a PJ party night and the appetizer meal was perfect for the occasion. I haven't even mentioned the deserts!!!! He was perfect when pairing the desert with the meals each desert taste beyond amazing you want to make sure that you leave room for dessert!! I almost forgot about the breakfast..... He mad great and filling breakfasts for our adventures and excursions. HE ensures that we had what we needed to enjoy the Jamaican sun. He created a fresh fruit smoothie that gave us energy, the omelets and ash browns were our favorite breakfast meal, and the fresh fruit mimosas with each meal (we also guessed the fruit used here too it was fun and a great time). He is great for intimate occasions and big parties. He and his helper was very professional and attentive to our needs. They were also fun to have around and made enjoying our meals each day more enjoyable. I highly recommend you hiring this chef. HE IS AMAZING!!
