About Us

Famish'd Eats is a Nashville based private chef and catering business owned and operated by Executive Chef Nigel Dupree. Chef Nigel, a Prince George's County, MD native attended the prestigious DeMatha Catholic High School in Maryland and St. John's University in New York City.

 

His journey to the culinary world was a non-traditional path. Having always been a creative and entrepreneurial individual, Chef Nigel knew that a traditional 9-5 would not work for him. Always good with using his hands, he initially worked as a successful barber before deciding to follow his life-long passion for cooking.

 

Before starting his own business Chef Nigel worked in many genres of the food industry. A brief stint in fast food led to working in a Sushi restaurant, a bakery, a Mexican restaurant and an exclusive country club in North Carolina. Along the way Chef Nigel has experimented with cooking Caribbean, Latin, Asian, Italian and of course "down home" American Soul food. He has fused all of the knowledge gained in the industry, along with flavors from around the world to create his signature culinary experience.

 

Chef Nigel prides himself on using fresh high quality ingredients. He looks forward to bringing the Famish'd Experience to you!
