Retreats Chef
Your intention, translated into food.
From the first welcome meal to the final shared breakfast, food helps shape how your retreat feels.
I work with you to understand your intention, your programme and the people you’re bringing together, then create menus that complement the rhythm of each day.
Expect colourful, seasonal food with Japanese influences — nourishing, deeply satisfying and beautifully presented.
Shared feasts and inviting buffet tables make room for easy conversation, while thoughtfully planned meals allow you to stay present with your guests.
Day retreats, multi-day experiences, wellness gatherings and team retreats are welcome. Dietary requirements are discussed during planning.
“ I could focus wholeheartedly on my guests and the workshops I was running, without worrying about food preparation times. It was lovely to finish a workshop, walk to the table and find the food was all there waiting ready and waiting for us.”
“From the beginning, I felt completely safe in her hands. She took ownership of the preparation, menu design and all the details, bringing her own thoughtful suggestions and resolving anything that arose without it ever spilling into the retreat experience. As a facilitator, being able to give my full attention to the women in front of me is invaluable, and Sashiko made that possible.”

“What I particularly loved was how beautifully she understood the intention of the retreat and translated it into food. From the menu to the presentation and the storytelling that accompanied the meals, everything felt woven into my brand and the experience I wanted to create. The food became an integral part of the retreat, an experience in its own right.”
