What Is A Culinary Misfit?
Culinary Misfits isn’t about the chef—it’s about the people who make it all worth it. The rebels hosting dinner parties instead of going out. The ones who want something a little different, a little more personal, and a lot more fun. Culinary Misfits are the folks who believe great food doesn’t need a fancy setting—it just needs good company, a little creativity, and a kitchen full of laughter. This brand is for the nontraditional, the bold, and the ones who know that the best meals are the ones that feel like home. If that sounds like you… welcome to the misfits.
Chef Eric
I’m Eric James—personal chef, content creator, and founder of Culinary Misfits. I graduated at the top of my class from Le Cordon Bleu in Austin, Texas, and went on to train in restaurants across Texas and Las Vegas. Since 2012, I’ve been creating unforgettable dining experiences in people’s homes and offices, blending restaurant-level execution with a warm, down-to-earth approach.
From intimate dinners to high-energy cocktail parties, my food is all about bringing people together. It’s soulful, approachable, and made to hit you right in the feels. Whether I’m cooking for clients or filming content around Vegas, my mission stays the same: to make food fun, personal, and worth remembering.
