Meet Chef Tobin
Plant-Based Chef in Los Angeles

Chef Tobin is a plant-based chef in Los Angeles specializing in gourmet, oil-free vegan meals prepared from a certified home kitchen.

After studying at the prestigious New School Culinary Institute in New York City, Tobin spent years perfecting his craft while working in the motion picture industry. When his family transitioned to a plant-based lifestyle, he dove deeper into the world of healthy, plant-forward cuisine — earning certification as a plant-based chef through the Forks Over Knives cooking school.
