THE NUDE DUDES / SETH & RYAN

TWO DUDES.
ONE GOOD IDEA.

FOOD IS PERSONAL.
SO ARE WE.

Best friends. A shared love of cooking. And a belief that eating well should come with a really good time.

WHAT WE DO

YOUR TASTES.
OUR STARTING POINT.

Tell us what you want to eat. We build the menu, prepare, cook in your home and clean up. Seasonal ingredients and dietary needs guide the experience—including gluten-free, dairy-free, FODMAP and AIP preferences.

01 / THE PEOPLE

DIFFERENT PATHS.
A SHARED TABLE.

HOSPITALITY & ENTERTAINMENT

Seth Bradley

Seth’s path has taken him from trading in Chicago to performing as a professional musician. Raised in Central Illinois, he left the Chicago Board of Trade to pursue music around the country while developing his cooking at home. Hospitality and entertainment come together at his table.

FOOD & CONNECTION

Ryan Van Voorhis

Ryan’s background in social work reflects a lifelong interest in caring for others. He moved to Chicago in 2003 for a master’s degree, working with DCFS and in crisis intervention at Cook County’s juvenile detention center. That care for people carries into his cooking.

WHAT’S UP
WITH THE NUDE?

Food with personality. NDF’s playful shirtless-chef approach brings a different kind of energy to a gathering.

Planning something more formal? Traditional chef coats are always an option. The point is an experience that feels right for your people.

COME FOR THE FOOD.
GET INTO THE COOKING.

NDF brings guests into the action. Ask about the cooking, learn a plating technique, or just enjoy watching your meal come together. Seasonal ingredients, thoughtful menus, and personal connection: that’s what belongs at the table.
