Personal Chef Matthew McComb

Private Luxury Chef serving New Jersey & Pennsylvania

At Chef Matt’s Culinary Creations, food is more than a service — it’s personal.

Chef Matt McComb
Founder & Private Chef — Chef Matt’s Culinary Creations LLCI began my career in kitchens at just 16 years old, washing dishes and learning the rhythm of the line from the ground up. Through discipline, consistency, and passion, I worked every station until becoming an Executive Chef at 22 in Avalon, New Jersey. I am a graduate of the Academy of Culinary Arts (Class of 2010) and a current member of the American Culinary Federation (ACF) and the United States Personal Chef Association (USPCA).After stepping away from cooking and being diagnosed with celiac disease, I returned with a renewed mission: to cook with deeper awareness, purpose, and respect for the body. That philosophy reshaped how I source, how I cook, and how I serve as a personal chef.Today, my primary focus is weekly meal prep and in-home personal cheffing — creating restaurant-quality meals tailored to each client’s lifestyle, goals, and dietary needs. Around that core service, I’ve built a dedicated culinary team who share the same standards of quality, integrity, and hospitality.Whether it’s weekly meal prep, an intimate private dinner, or an interactive cooking class, my commitment remains the same: real food, cooked fresh, with intention and care.Our philosophy:
From Chef’s Heart to Your Plate — guided by the belief that Let thy food be thy medicine is not just a motto, but a standard for how food should support the person eating it.We listen. We source thoughtfully. We cook everything fresh. We leave your kitchen immaculate.From everyday nourishment to unforgettable celebrations, every experience is created with clarity, care, and intention.— Chef Matt McComb

After stepping away from the culinary industry for a time, he was diagnosed with Celiac disease — a moment that reignited his passion for food and reshaped his purpose in the kitchen.That turning point led to the creation of Chef Matt’s Culinary Creations — a company built on the belief that food should nourish, heal, and bring people together.Known for his relentless work ethic, creativity, and empathy, Chef Matt is guided by the philosophy “let food be thy medicine.” Every detail is intentional, every ingredient chosen with care, and every allergy or dietary need respected.We believe the table should be a safe, welcoming place for everyone. Our bespoke culinary experiences are more than just meals — they’re personal, meaningful, and deeply rooted in the belief that food can be transformative.

around 2016...

A Turning Point...

Following years in demanding kitchens, Matt faced a deeply personal turning point after serving as a Sous Chef at JAM Catering and attempting to launch his first personal chef business in 2016. During this time trying to secure his very first client, he became the victim of a scam involving a fraudulent client check — unfolding just before Christmas with a newborn daughter at home. The emotional and financial impact caused him to step away from the culinary world entirely.He entered new fields — Direct Mail Marketing, Auto Sales, and eventually Residential Real Estate. Matt always continued to serve at local Restaurants; keeping his love for the craft alive while Real estate became a space of stability and confidence where Matt rebuilt his sense of service while life recalibrated around him.

Since 2020...

Food Sensativities

But as COVID, his recent celiac diagnosis, and an unstable economy collided simultaneously, something familiar began to call him back. The kitchen. The craft. The purpose.When Matt was diagnosed with celiac disease, it didn’t push him away from food — it refined how he understood it. Food became medicine. Intention replaced habit. And his guiding philosophy evolved into the truth that now defines his work: Let thy food be thy medicine. His mission clarified into From Chef’s Heart to Your Plate.While watching a CNBC “Make It” episode featuring a personal chef, Matt had a moment of clarity. He realized he didn’t simply want to cook — he wanted to serve. Not as a burned-out executive chef trapped in hierarchy, but as a personal chef creating meaningful, human-centered experiences.
