Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Roger Martins. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Roger , appreciate you joining us today. Let’s start with a story that highlights an important way in which your brand diverges from the industry standard.

Absolutely. At Chef Roger’s Kitchen, what sets us apart is the level of personalization and care we bring to every event. Unlike many in the industry who offer standard packages or fixed menus, we invest significant time in sitting down with our clients, truly listening to their desires, their vision, and even the smallest details they dream of bringing to life.

Every event is different, and we treat it that way. Whether it’s a wedding, a private dinner, or a celebration, we make it a point to customize the experience completely, from the menu to the presentation, ensuring it reflects the personality and wishes of our client.

Our focus is on making the experience feel personal and thoughtful. For example, we once worked on a surprise birthday dinner where the client asked if we could recreate a chicken and dumplings recipe that his wife’s grandmother used to make. He had a rough version of the recipe and a few memories of how it should taste. We spent time testing, adjusting, and fine-tuning until we got something that felt true to what he described.

It’s that kind of extra care and attention that we believe makes all the difference, helping turn a good event into a memorable one.
This is what drives us. We don’t just serve food, we help create unforgettable, deeply personal moments.

Roger , love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

At Chef Roger’s Kitchen food meets celebration in the most personalized way possible. Born out of a deep love for hospitality and flavor, our business is all about creating memorable, joy-filled events—whether it’s a lively birthday bash, a romantic wedding dinner, or an intimate home gathering.

At the heart of it all is Chef Roger Martins, a proud native of São Paulo, Brazil—often called the gourmet capital of South America. Inspired by the vibrant, multicultural food scene of his hometown and his family’s restaurant roots, Chef Roger brings a unique blend of warmth, creativity, and culinary excellence to every event we serve.

What makes Chef Roger’s Kitchen different? We don’t believe in cookie-cutter catering. Every menu is custom-built around your vision, your tastes, and the experience you want to create for your guests. We take the time to sit down, get to know you, and collaborate—so the end result feels just right, every time.

We’ve helped clients surprise loved ones with recreated family recipes, transform backyard spaces into elegant dining rooms, and turn simple meals into lasting memories. That’s what drives us: spreading joy through food, and making sure every guest leaves smiling.

What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?

What’s really helped build our reputation is our commitment to quality, both in food and in service, no matter the circumstances. Even during challenging times, like rising food costs or being short-staffed, we’ve made it a priority to maintain the same high standards our clients have come to expect.

We never cut corners, because we know that every detail matters. Whether it’s sourcing fresh ingredients, presenting dishes beautifully, or making sure every guest feels taken care of, we stay focused on delivering an experience that feels special and intentional.

That consistency has paid off in the best way: word of mouth. Our clients become our biggest advocates, referring us to friends, family, and colleagues, not because we ask them to, but because they truly enjoyed their experience. That kind of trust is what we value most, and it’s what continues to drive our growth today.

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

Without a doubt, the most effective strategy for growing our clientele has been word of mouth. We’ve found that when people have an exceptional experience, whether it’s the flavor of the food, the warmth of the service, or how effortlessly everything flows, they want to share it with others. That kind of genuine recommendation carries more weight than any advertisement ever could.

What also makes a big difference is that each event we execute with care and precision becomes its own showcase. We’re not just serving food—we’re creating an experience for every guest in the room. And those guests often don’t forget it. When it comes time for them to host their own event, they remember us, the quality, the energy, the attention to detail, and they reach out.

In this way, every event becomes an opportunity to connect with new potential clients simply by doing what we do best. It’s a natural, organic way of growing, built on trust, consistency, and the kind of service people want to experience again.
