About Me
Born and raised in NYC, Chef Zee is a first-generation American whose parents emigrated from Cuba and The Dominican Republic. She’s learned to cook from her grandmother who always taught her to put flavor above all else. When her grandmother passed away, Chef Zee dedicated herself to teaching others how to make authentic Dominican and Cuban dishes. Many of her creations have a Caribbean-Hispanic flare with vibrant flavors that will have you coming back for more!
As someone who straddles multiple cultures, it was important to Chef Zee that she honor and celebrate the traditions of her ancestors. As a Grandma Certified Chef, Chef Zee believes that food is a cultural currency that transcends the spoken word. She invites viewers to join her at her virtual dinner table each week on her YouTube Channel — Chef Zee Cooks
. Her easy to follow recipes and video tutorials inspire newbie and experienced cooks to get in the kitchen and create delicious magic that they can share with their own friends and family. Chef Zee always says, “come hungry and leave inspired! You’ll be the go-to chef in your family in no time!”
