About Uri

Uri Attia’s oatmeal chocolate chip cookies were better than everyone else’s cookies on “bring a cookie to school” day in Mrs. Kassen’s class in Kindergarten. And it just started building from there.

Uri has a bachelor’s degree in economics from Stanford University and an MBA in Finance and Management from New York University. His culinary knowledge is self-taught, but with comparable vigor.  His passion for food – sourcing, cooking, and eating – led him to start the Portable Chef.

The Portable Chef reflects Uri’s belief that meals need to be prepared the right way – from scratch, using chemical-free, farmer-sourced ingredients and humanely-raised livestock – and when they are, the result is best for your health, best for the environment, and the absolute best tasting.
