ABOUT ENA
Hey, I'm Ena.
Chef. Traveller. Storyteller. I cook from a place of presence, blending Mediterranean tradition, seasonal simplicity, and intuitive awareness to create experiences that nourish body, mind, and spirit.
The Story
After years of traveling, working at sea, and living freely across countries, my life felt full of freedom and possibility.
But then 3 years ago Lyme disease stopped me completely. Months of pain and uncertainty forced me into stillness and deep reflection. Despite having eaten healthy my whole life, I had to rethink everything I believed about food.
I realised nourishment is about so much more than just ingredients. It’s about pace, presence, and the relationship we hold with ourselves while we eat.
Through a combination of holistic and conventional healing, deep inner work, and profound lifestyle changes, I rebuilt my strength. Later, a ten-day silent meditation retreat cracked something open in me, and my entire relationship with food, cooking, and nourishment shifted permanently.
The Approach
That journey reshaped how I cook. Today, my work blends Mediterranean tradition, seasonal simplicity, and intuitive awareness. I create experiences, not just meals, designed to bring people back to themselves.
When you invite me to your table, you are inviting calm presence, thoughtful sourcing, and food prepared with intention. Whether I’m cooking in a villa, at a retreat, on a yacht, or at a wellness event, my goal remains the same: to nourish you deeply—body, mind, and spirit.
