Meet Chef Aspen

Founded by a former Alinea stagiaire and executive chef, Shanks Kitchen brings fine-dining expertise to home catering. The service focuses on crafting personalized menus using the freshest local ingredients for an elevated dining experience.

  • "Chef Aspen is an exceptional chef. Our New Year’s Eve menu was Star quality! We had 14 seated for dinner and everyone loved the presentation. Clean up was included and he did a great job taking care of the kitchen. Highly recommend Chef Aspen for your party."

    Denise

  • "Chef Aspen provided excellent chef services across three days for our family vacation in Winter Park, Colorado. We enjoyed lovely dinners served each evening, along with delicious leave-behind lunches, and several (amazing) desserts. Chef was flexible with the menu and met several different dietary needs. Thank you, Chef Aspen!"

    Kate

  • "Chef Aspen created a truly memorable experience for my family. His food was absolutely delicious and his presentation was amazing. He was so kind and friendly, and once it was over we just knew we would want to book again! For a table of sometimes picky eaters, everything was devoured and enjoyed. If he is available, he is a must-have to book!"
