Aura Maria Medina Merchan

Mi historia: Cocina con amor y técnica

Estudié cocina profesional y desde los 19 años he viajado cocinando y aprendiendo. Formada en gerencia gastronómica y barismo, trabajé en España (cocina asturiana y paellas), Francia (pasantía en restaurante con estrella Michelin Auberge del Ady), Bogotá y Punta Cana. Disfruto la cocina de autor; amo los vegetales y los integro en mis recetas.

Aprendo de cada lugar y persona; mi base es francesa, española y mediterránea, con toques de cocina molecular.

Opiniones y experiencias

Chef Aura was amazing! From start to finish every dish was authentic and flavorful! Will always recommend!

Yarini Garcia

Chef Aura was AMAZING. We took a large trip to the Dominican and she was able to stay with us and feed us the entire time. The food was nothing but spectacular. I don’t know how I took a trip without one before, especially with the service I received. She was very flexible to any changes we had and was the nicest person to work with.

Chef Aura was absolutely phenomenal! Every course she prepared was a culinary masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. She truly exceeded all of my expectations. I’m already looking forward to my next trip — we’ll definitely be booking her again without hesitation!

Chef Aura Maria was incredibly polite, always wearing a warm smile. Her attention to detail and accommodating nature were truly impressive. Her professionalism and thorough preparation made planning and executing my husband's birthday surprise effortless and seamless.

Our experience with Chef Aura in Cabarete, Dominican Republic was incredible. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were generous. All ingredients were fresh. Would highly recommend!

Katrina Thiessen

We were a little hesitant at using this service given we live in a different country and didn’t know what to expect but our chef exceeded our expectations by 100%! There are a few picky eaters in our group but she make everything to our liking and the portions were perfect everytime. She made everything from scratch which we were amazed at, even the most delicious coconut ice cream we have ever experienced. Food was always on time of our expectations nice and fresh. They had great personalities even with the language barrier we were able to joke and laugh with them. I am so happy we decided to go through with having a chef for the time we did. We were so sad when she left us! We will absolutely request her again if we are in that area again or recommend someone who is! Thank you again for your service!

Chef Aura fue increíble. Hizo nuestro aniversario muy especial y inolvidable. Llegó a tiempo, dejó la cocina bien limpia, y para colmo cocinó la comida más rica que hemos probado en la vida. Esperamos hacer esta experiencia de nuevo.
