About my catering
I am Anne, a certified Ayurveda Nutrition Coach and Ayurveda Vegan Chef based in the coastal heart of Ericeira, Portugal, and Berlin, Germany.
My journey with food began in childhood, but it was my own experience as a Vata person that led me to the healing wisdom of Ayurveda.
After a lifetime of digestive struggles, applying Ayurvedic principles in my kitchen changed everything. I could finally enjoy food without discomfort.
To deepen my knowledge, I traveled extensively through India, immersing myself in Panchakarma centers and traditional ashrams.
Today, I bring this authentic wisdom to Europe, offering professional retreat catering in Ericeira and across the Lisbon region.
For me, Yoga and Ayurveda belong together; as a certified yoga teacher and host of yoga retreats in Portugal, I believe that true transformation starts and ends in the kitchen.
Whether you are looking for a deep Ayurveda detox in Portugal, want to learn Ayurveda in Portugal through hands-on practice, or need soul-nourishing retreat catering in Lisbon, I am here to support you.
My kitchen has been mainly vegan for over 9 years, with mindful exceptions like homemade ghee. I focus on ethical, plant-based ingredients to support your journey toward balance.

What is Ayurvedic Food?
The ayurvedic kitchen serves food for the body, mind and soul with the main goal to keep the digestive functions (agni) healthy and balanced. Let me explain…
Easy to digest
In Ayurveda, a healthy digestion is the key to overall well-being. The focus is on eating food that’s nourishing, colorful, and full of life — but also light and easy to digest.
Whether during a yoga retreat in Portugal or a specialized Ayurveda retreat, I adjust the food to the season, the time of day, and the year, according to how strongly our digestive fire (Agni) can absorb it.
When our digestion works well, our body can absorb all the nutrients it needs to stay energized, balanced, and strong.
This mindful approach is at the heart of my retreat catering in Ericeira. By aligning every meal with nature’s rhythm, I help people reconnect with their bodies through the healing power of food.
Adjusted to constant change
We are deeply connected to the rhythms of nature. Seasonal changes, the time of day, and our stage of life all influence how we process food.
Rather than a “one-size-fits-all” approach, Ayurveda follows a customized diet tailored to your unique Dosha constitution.
By aligning meals with these natural cycles and understanding when our Agni (digestive fire) is at its strongest, food truly becomes medicine that supports healing.
This personalized wisdom is the foundation of my retreat catering in Ericeira and every Ayurveda retreat or yoga retreat in Portugal I facilitate. I help you discover how to use food as a tool for your unique constitution to foster lasting well-being.
Food is medicine
The food we intake every day has a profound purpose: to foster a balanced life in harmony with our constitution.
When we eat according to our nature, we nourish far more than just the physical body; we create a foundation where the mind, body, and spirit can reach higher states of consciousness.
Treating food as medicine ensures that every meal during a yoga retreat in Portugal becomes a ritual of transformation. This holistic approach allows your journey to continue beyond the yoga mat with every mindful bite, leading to deeper clarity, inner peace, and a true connection to yourself.
Healthy, fresh & regional ingredients
Ayurveda relies on regional, seasonal, and organic whole foods. In my kitchen, I only use fresh ingredients where Prana (life force energy) is at its highest. By avoiding processed foods and pesticides, I ensure every meal is vibrantly alive and easy to absorb.
This commitment to purity defines my retreat catering in Ericeira. Whether for an Ayurveda retreat or a yoga retreat in Portugal, I source local excellence to create meals that truly nourish and heal.
Diet incorperated in lifestyle
Ayurveda goes far beyond the food we eat, viewing the physical, emotional, and energetic bodies as one. Your yoga retreat in Portugal or Ayurveda retreat is the perfect opportunity to explore this connection firsthand.
Through my retreat catering in Ericeira, I provide the nourishment that supports this deep integration of mind, body, and spirit.
When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use; when diet is correct, medicine is of no need”
Ayurvedic saying
A healthy and balanced diet can prolong our life by up to 10 years
Food is meant to nurture and fuel us, providing the energy our mind and body need to thrive.
However, if our daily intake is filled with toxins and processed ingredients, we lose that vital connection.
As an Ayurveda vegan chef & Ayurveda expert, I have spent years intensively studying the art of healing through nutrition and what truly makes a difference for our well-being.
Many of my clients have shared how this mindful approach helped them feel more connected to their bodies and heal imbalances. In my cooking, I prioritize wholesome, high-quality ingredients.
Rooted in the principle that food is medicine, Ayurveda teaches us how to balance our unique constitution (our Doshas) through mindful eating. This is a core element of every Ayurveda detox in Portugal that I facilitate.
Every spice, every grain, and every vegetable plays a role in bringing harmony to the body and mind.
Whether I am providing retreat catering in Ericeira or hosting an Ayurveda workshop in Portugal, I focus on carefully selected seasonal, plant-based ingredients.
These not only nourish but also support digestion, vitality, and emotional well-being. By aligning meals with nature’s rhythm, my goal is to create food that is both healing and deeply satisfying: an experience that feels like a warm embrace from within.
