CHARLOTTE PRIVATE CHEF & CULINARY EDUCATOR
SUSANNE DILLINGHAM

Stories, recipes, and behind-the-scenes moments from a life spent cooking — from in-home private dinners and cooking classes to food, wine, and farm life.

Farm & Food News — Susanne Dillingham may be small in size, but her love of food, wine, and farming is anything but.

The Tiny Chef is dedicated to creating meaningful culinary experiences — from private chef dinners and hands-on cooking classes to wine education for adults — all rooted in seasonality and a deep respect for North Carolina farmers.

Through these stories, recipes, and experiences, Chef Susanne invites you into her world, where beautiful food, thoughtful technique, and connection around the table come together in ways your friends and family will talk about long after the meal ends.

Serving Charlotte, Lake Norman, and surrounding North Carolina communities.
