Our Town: Rebekah’s Kitchen, blending culinary craft with mountain life

Nestled in the heart of Park City, Utah, Rebekah's Kitchen is more than just a catering service—it's a vibrant story of adventure, culinary passion, and deep-rooted community ties, all brought to life by one remarkable woman

PARK CITY, Utah — Rebekah Abrams, Owner and Executive Chef, began her journey far from the kitchen she now leads. A former Division One ski racer, Rebekah took a post-college gap year to ski in Colorado. Her twin brother, also in the ski industry, told her if she was “going to be a skier”, she had to go to Alta.

From Ski Slopes to Kitchen Stoves

While working at Alta Lodge, Rebekah honed her cooking skills across multiple establishments, including the Rustler Lodge and Jony’s. “I worked everywhere up there,” she recalled.

While at Rustler Lodge, she met a family who invited her to become their personal chef in San Francisco. “I was like, yeah, why not?” she said, and quickly became a self-taught personal chef.

When the economy declined in 2008, Rebekah had to adjust. “I needed a job,” she said, returning to cooking and ultimately finding her way back to Park City. “I ended up back in the profession, almost by accident,” she shared. The mountain lifestyle and tight-knit community kept her in Park City. “I love mountain life, the community, and seeing my friends at the grocery store or post office.”

Creating Culinary Magic in Park City

Today, Rebekah’s Kitchen thrives as a premier catering and personal chef service. Operating out of her Silver Creek commissary kitchen, her team delivers exceptional dining experiences directly to clients’ homes.

A standout offering is her sustainable, organic prepared meal delivery service, offered every Monday. These non-contact deliveries arrive in reusable glass containers, ensuring families enjoy fresh, healthy meals with minimal effort while emphasizing sustainability.

Rebekah’s Kitchen also specializes in elaborate personal chef services, featuring detailed ingredient preparation and indulgent, slow-cooked dishes. Her dedicated kitchen space allows her team to craft high-quality meals that wouldn’t be possible in a client’s home.

Building a Thriving Culinary Team

Building a Thriving Culinary Team Rebekah’s dedication extends to her employees. Her business now supports three full-time chefs who receive benefits like health insurance and discounted ski passes. “Thank you, Park City Chamber of Commerce,” laughed Rebekah. “I try to keep my staff as happy as I can and get them out recreating whenever they can in this beautiful mountain town.”

Embracing “Mountainkind”

“Mountainkind to me is community,” Rebekah explained. “It’s me going to an event to cook and seeing fellow business owners who stop by to say hi. We chat about business, town life, skiing, mountain biking, or where we went hiking, camping, or fishing.”

For Rebekah, “Mountainkind” is the shared experience of working hard for the reward of Park City’s outdoor lifestyle. “Being able to recreate, then come to work and be happy—how can you not be happy here?” she asked.

Park City’s unique spirit blends fellowship, collaboration, and “knowing your neighbors,” Rebekah shared. “My neighbors are my friends I want to have over for dinner, but they’re also my friends I want to do business with. We’re supportive of each other, and that is all Mountainkind.”

Through her dedication to delicious food, sustainable practices, and strong community ties, Rebekah Abrams has transformed Rebekah’s Kitchen into a reflection of the vibrant, connected lifestyle that makes Park City special.
