Bio

Cody Anderson’s love of cooking started in his childhood kitchen, helping his grandmother and mother make Sunday dinners for the whole family. Those weekly gatherings — and the two great cooks who ran them — are the biggest influence behind everything he does today, and the reason he still cooks to bring people together.

Over nearly twenty years he built a serious fine-dining career, honing his craft under renowned chefs in some of Houston’s best restaurants before setting out on his own. Today he serves as private chef for a prominent family in River Oaks — a role that speaks to the trust, consistency and refinement he brings to every table.

His cooking is grounded in French and European technique, with a fine-dining polish and a deep respect for seasonal ingredients — which makes him a natural fit for anyone after French-influenced catering in Houston with a genuine private-chef’s touch. He tailors every menu to the season and to each client’s tastes, so no two experiences are quite the same.

Constantly striving to expand his culinary horizons, Cody travels regularly across America and Europe, gathering techniques and inspiration to keep his cooking evolving. That curiosity shows in his food: familiar comforts like large roasted meats and exquisite seafood, elevated with real technique and care.

For Cody, the joy his guests express is the ultimate reward — he loves serving others and the connection a shared meal creates. Working as a private chef in Houston, he brings meticulous standards, warm conversation and fine-dining pedigree straight into private homes, making every dish a reflection of his commitment to excellence and his love of making people happy.
