In her hometown of Chile, she grew up admiring and eating her mother’s comfort foods while venturing out with her father on epic food adventures. You could find 7 year old Fernanda slurping oysters on the half shell, eating piure at the fish market, and ordering abalone and ceviche at restaurants. But it wasn’t until her senior year in college at Brandeis University that she decided to take the leap and turn what she loved most into her career. After attending culinary school at Boston University, she honed her skills on the line at great restaurants in Boston, received a Zagat 30 under 30 recognition, and successfully opened her very own South American tapas restaurant Comedor (which served the most epic chicken wings for over 6 years in Newton Centre). There, she received “Best of Boston” awards in 2016 & 2017, won a Star Chef’s all expenses paid trip to Argentina, and had multiple appearances (and cough cough wins!) on Food Networks’ Chopped and Beat Bobby Flay. Fourteen years later, Fernanda is still doing what she loves the most: cooking! After selling her beloved Comedor in 2020, Fernanda decided to open her own private chef business. At FernCooks, she dedicates herself wholeheartedly to bringing restaurant quality food to people’s homes. She provides an array of services, but her absolute favorites are intimate dinner parties with wild menus, bold flavors, and more importantly great times. https://www.ferncooks.com/services daily 0.75 2026-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/2585a566-8e1e-4e7a-925a-f121b4946da5/CM203097.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/91786cbe-9d71-49a1-bb33-56ae83fd178e/fern+and+alvin.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/0424302d-8b80-44d8-81fe-af18795ef751/IMG_7771.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/81a5d007-8a8b-440b-bf72-571d16ca6022/CM201604.jpg Services https://www.ferncooks.com/talk-of-the-town daily 0.75 2026-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1655410136072-Q1XQ6B4JTKC4G1KEUAHM/CM206837.jpg Talk of the Town https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1655410907649-6O5J6GGODWXXBOVYZ5HC/IMG_0271.jpg Talk of the Town https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1655411773429-JR22CQ8Z7DH9XZQU212O/IMG_9741.jpg Talk of the Town https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1655315423221-M0YYLY2NAH2RHSHA0B7G/party+overview.jpg Talk of the Town - “We consider Fern’s cooking to be one of our luckiest finds of life. A year ago, wanting something unique to celebrate our new home, we contacted Fern to cook for a small family gathering in our yard. We’d never hired a chef before and had no idea what to expect. The menu options she presented were next level. And when we were all served our dishes fresh from the stove and grill we were simply blown away. This wasn’t just a home cooked meal. This was a high end, fine dining experience. In fact, we were so smitten that we planned our wedding around Fern’s cooking. And when our guests reminisce about that day, the first thing they remember is the food.” — Morris Rivera https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/3170cee0-72d0-453c-b7f8-d55678288f7b/passed+apps.jpg Talk of the Town “We threw a party for 15 friends. Fernanda brought over the ingredients and cooked everything on-site. She served a multicourse meal of apps, entrees, and dessert. Fernanda was incredibly nice to work with, and the food was UNBELIEVABLE. As good or better than the best food I’ve ever had at a restaurant, here or in Manhattan. She left the kitchen neat and clean.” https://www.ferncooks.com/member-site-homepage-1 daily 0.75 2026-05-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Member Site Homepage 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Member Site Homepage 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Member Site Homepage 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/b0e76259-0a2d-4652-af34-d25143b6cd3c/02_CIRCLE_SHOT_3_0307_04_QC.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/7981a6b2-6661-493c-b9dc-654a4b537c39/04_CIRCLE_SHOT_4_0422_03_QC.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/27dca807-da34-43e7-a1ab-58f117dc7aca/01_CIRCLE_SHOT_6_0199_06a_QC.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1dd36f65-c5db-447f-aa01-66161cdcde0c/Aro+Ha_0010.jpg https://www.ferncooks.com/book-your-event daily 0.75 2026-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/21ec11a1-6a14-41f1-a6b1-4447081cb426/IMG_1887.jpeg https://www.ferncooks.com/cooking-classes daily 0.75 2026-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1655410907649-6O5J6GGODWXXBOVYZ5HC/IMG_0271.jpg https://www.ferncooks.com/store daily 0.75 2022-12-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/7070399c-9b12-44ef-bd0f-56bbb2a71a3d/120_Logo_T.png https://www.ferncooks.com/store/p/supper-club monthly 0.5 2026-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/de8abf4f-cc64-491e-bde0-4f907b2a3179/CM206825.jpg Store - Supper Club https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/243befe8-69bc-481b-81b6-44bdf0d99a52/IMG_6257.jpeg Store - Supper Club https://www.ferncooks.com/store/p/papi-sticker monthly 0.5 2025-01-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1679244751845-BATOTKNW1NJR965AQLSZ/papi+sticker.PNG Store - Papi Sticker https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1679246178388-DSLKEMTM4RG0UASDOBHS/IMG_0677.jpg Store - Papi Sticker https://www.ferncooks.com/store/p/nuttybark monthly 0.5 2025-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1672201997631-LFC4ME08A7M4MYYIECT3/IMG_7701.jpg Store - Nutty Dark Chocolate Bark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1670557045117-RP22WMI6LSR3O9V94WE0/Chocolate+bark.jpg Store - Nutty Dark Chocolate Bark https://www.ferncooks.com/store/p/everythingspicemix monthly 0.5 2025-01-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1672267010907-FJJ9Z7Z7ZFSB5R10QZLI/APC_0240.jpg Store - The Everything Spice Mix https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1670556989444-QWJHPII2BB0IO9H6JMRM/Spice+Mix+front.jpg Store - The Everything Spice Mix https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1670556997050-OGT09MGDBFTLIPYYXN3Q/Spice+Mix+back.jpg Store - The Everything Spice Mix https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1672202561165-FT3M6X31GNYI990DGAI2/IMG_8458.jpeg Store - The Everything Spice Mix https://www.ferncooks.com/store/p/tapipapi monthly 0.5 2026-02-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1b89ad16-309a-4810-99a8-cc691f9b3671/DSC06853_SM.jpg Store - Tapi Papi https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1672268384139-Z0WYVAHR7104O0QBR530/Hot+sauce+Front-SQUARE.jpg Store - Tapi Papi https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61576a279106bc08a2e18537/1672268384100-8J9J8IYK5JHS29N8N02V/Hot+sauce+Back-SQUARE.jpg Store - Tapi Papi
