Hi! I’m Shelbey England, an Arizona native with a lifelong love of food, adventure, and bringing people together—usually over a delicious table! Growing up near Cave Creek, AZ, I learned the art of hospitality cooking alongside my mom in her cowboy-style Dutch oven catering business (Cowgirls Forever!). Over the years, that passion evolved into my private chef practice, Bricoleur.
“Globally inspired for every season of life.”
To me, "season" represents both ingredients and life's moments. Whether it’s an intimate private dinner party or weekly nourishing meals, I craft custom culinary experiences that bring joy, comfort, and connection to your home.
From the French word bricolage (meaning creation from a diverse array of elements), a bricoleur crafts new things with resourcefulness and artistic spirit. That philosophy drives my cooking—blending international flavors, local ingredients, and personal touches to make every meal special.
