About The Chef
I am Jasek Almaguer, the founder of The Meridian Table.
My background is rooted in elevated hospitality, but more importantly, in understanding what makes people feel genuinely taken care of. Over years in professional kitchens and dining spaces, I learned that great food only matters if the experience surrounding it feels calm, intentional, and human.
The Meridian Table is where that philosophy becomes personal.
One chef. One home. One table at a time.
Cooking in someone’s home is not about replicating a restaurant. It is about removing everything that distracts from connection while maintaining the level of execution, discipline, and polish guests expect from high-end dining. I approach each service with respect for the space I am entering and the people I am cooking for.
Why The Meridian Table?
The Meridian Table was created to bring focus back to the table itself through intention and direction.
Not just the food, but the moment. The pace of an evening that feels considered rather than rushed, and personal rather than transactional. In a world where dining is often loud, crowded, and distracted, The Meridian Table exists to offer an alternative: intimate, in-home culinary experiences built around clarity, intention, and craft.
Every service begins with direction. The guest’s occasion, mood, preferences, and story set the course. From there, each detail is shaped deliberately, from menu composition to timing, service flow, and the way the evening unfolds in your home.
