Chef Lucky was very good. Presentation and flavour profiles were exceptional. I will do this again!

Connor was absolutely incredible! He was so prompt and kind - the meal was the best we had looking over a perfect sunset. We will definitely be using his services again when we’re back. He is so SO good, y’all!

Food was amazing, the two Balinese guys who came and cooked / presented the food were very professional, polite and friendly.

Cindy was our Chef for a full week in playa Pelada. She was organized, communicated well, and accommodated all special requests. The menu was creative and mixed local cuisine with classics which was perfect for our group which included 4 kids. The desserts each night were a highlight. Having Cindy as our chef turned our trip into a true vacation and it was wonderful coming home from the beach every night to a delicious meal.

We hired Chef Turandot for my moms birthday dinner and I could not recommend her more. Everything tasted amazing and she was very accommodating with food allergies. Thank you for making her birthday very special!

Le chef nous a bien régalé. Les plats délicieux et bien présentés. A refaire

Amazing experience!!! John was great! Food was amazing!!

Superbe soirée entre amis accompagné pour les supers préparations de Perrine !

Very professional chef, lovely food and very accommodating, would definitely recommend.

Guilherme is a wonder! So charming and engaging, he prepared an outstanding meal for us. Everything from the amuse bouche to the desert was a taste sensation. We learned about the nuance of each dish, and he answered all our questions about preparation. Both he and his waiter Antoine were a joy to have in our home and were very sweet to our little dog as well. I would highly recommend him!

Chef Santiago was truly superb. We asked for a "surprise" menu and got just that: a collection of his favourite dishes. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is thinking of throwing their own event.

We highly recommend Chef Anniel. She made my wife’s 50th birthday very special. She loved it. And my kids loved the food too. She was also very communicative throughout the Take A Chef process.

From the very beginning, I knew I could trust Chef Elena with our corporate event for 50 people. She was very reliable, easy going and her great communication from start to finish made this experience seamless and stress-free. Chef Elena and her team are dedicated culinary professionals with a passion for crafting exquisite dishes using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Committed to creating visually stunning plates, understanding that the dining experience begins with the eyes. Tailoring menus to individual tastes while offering the option of well-curated set menus for incredible dining experience. Strives to provide clients with a unique and memorable culinary journey. A real pleasure to work with.

Chef Manu was incredible. He was communicative, punctual, friendly, and most importantly, an amazing chef! He made our trip very memorable. Don’t hesitate to hire him for your next special occasion!

A creative, flexible service from a clearly veteran chef that my family agreed helped make the evening particularly special. Would thoroughly recommend.

Didac is a fantastic chef! He created a very good menu and took into account that my wife is vegetarian and breast feeding. We were very happy with the selection of food and how it was combined to something special. I can truly recommend Didac as a chef. :-)

Une superbe expérience culinaire. Des plats soignés, très bien élaborés et délicieux. A refaire. Merci Chef.

Paul was a great chef for the night! He was responsive and kind. He answered questions thoughtfully and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend.

Chef Thiago was one of the most dedicated and awesome chefs I've had the chance to hire. He is extremely fun and very easy going. The food was delicious, well prepared and presented beautifully. I would highly recommend Chef Thiago to anyone that has a special event or a night in for a fantastic private chef experience!

Amalya and her partner were amazing. Had the Thai dinner menu it was a great experience trying something new. However her Italian lunch menu was phenomenal! There were no leftover after that. Her bruschetta i could eat for every meal everyday it was awesome. Highly highly recommend her !
