Meet Chef Carlos

Carlos Flórida Gourmet is led by Chef Carlos, a Brazilian-born chef who cooks the food he grew up on and the flavors Central Florida loves. He came up cooking Latin dishes and brought that kitchen with him to Orlando and the surrounding area.

Every event is handled personally. Chef Carlos meets you, learns your crowd, and builds a menu that fits the occasion, then cooks it fresh on the day. The goal is simple: food that tastes like it came from someone who actually cares how it turns out.

Today he caters weddings, corporate events, and private celebrations across Central Florida, blending Brazilian, Latin, and American dishes so every table feels like the people around it.

What we stand for

How we approach every event

  • The chef is in the kitchen

    Chef Carlos handles your event personally, from the first tasting to the last plate. No call centers, no reheated trays, no handing you off to a stranger.

  • Cooked fresh, on-site

    We cook made-to-order at your venue and run live stations so the food tastes like it came from a real kitchen, because it did.

  • Latin roots, Central Florida table

    Brazilian and Latin flavors blended with American favorites, tuned to your crowd. Familiar enough for everyone, distinctive enough to remember.

  • Fully custom, no surprises

    Every menu is built around your guests, budget, and dietary needs, and you taste it before you book. What you approve is what your guests eat.
