Transform food from a daily burden into effortless fuel.
● Culinary hospitality that add to your best work, recovery, and life.
Athletes, founders, and people operating at the highest level tend to have the same questions. What should I eat? Does this support my goals? Will this make me crash later? Each one pulling at mental bandwidth and hours needed for important tasks.
Culinary 86 provides nutrition-backed, chef-prepared meals and hospitality that removes food as a daily puzzle, so you can maintain energy, recover properly, and focus on what actually moves your life forward.
When schedules are busy, food becomes rushed, inconsistent, or outsourced to convenience that doesn’t support how you should feel or perform.
Proper nutrition systems catered to your lifestyle with results that translate directly to improved well-being, performance, and time management.
“He’s a huge part of why I feel the way I feel and my success as well.”

About Us
With more than eight years cooking for professional athletes, entrepreneurs, and high-performing individuals, Executive Chef Chris brings the discipline of sports and the precision of a professional kitchen to culinary hospitality.
Raised as an athlete, he learned that how you fuel your body directly affects how you perform. Trained in professional kitchens, he developed the preparation and attention to detail required to execute at the highest level. That foundation became Culinary 86 and the philosophy behind it: 86 the ordinary.
At Culinary 86, food is approached with the mindset of an athlete and the craftsmanship of a professional kitchen. We've 86'd the compromises most people accept: between nutrition and taste, quality and convenience, performance goals and culinary experience. Every menu is designed around the client. Every ingredient sourced intentionally. Every meal prepared with intention.
