We had the absolute pleasure of working with Chef Luis during our time in Costa Rica, and the experience exceeded every expectation. He prepared a full range of meals for us, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and each one was exceptional. The food was not only consistently delicious, but beautifully presented, with thoughtful attention to detail that elevated every meal. What truly set Luis apart was the care and intention he brought to his craft. He took the time to walk us through each dish, sharing why he selected certain ingredients and how the flavors came together. It created a deeper appreciation for the meals and made the experience feel personal and immersive. Beyond his culinary talent, Luis was incredibly kind, professional, and respectful in our space. He maintained a spotless kitchen, leaving everything even cleaner than he found it after every meal, which we deeply appreciated. If you have the opportunity to work with Chef Luis, take it without hesitation. He brings not just outstanding food, but a full, thoughtful, and memorable dining experience. Highly recommend.

Ha sido una experiencia increíble. Los chef han sido súper atentos y se han adaptado genial a un grupo grande. Los platos han llegado con muy buen tiempo y la calidad del producto era estupendo.

We Loved having Drew at my 40th birthday with friends, so professional and amazing food!!

Great experience with genuine food. Gian was super professional and really went the extra mile to make our evening great!

Chef Darius made our evening very special with the production of great tasting food and stories about his journey as a chef. He clearly had a passion for what he does which came across in the food- he cooked with love! Thank you Chef!

Superbe expérience ! Tout s’est très bien passé. Joël est sympathique et est très professionnel. Nous étions 12 à profiter de son bon repas. Je recommande sans hésiter

Jose was our chef for my 50th birthday at a villa we had hired. He was amazing. Cannot write enough about how good he was. He was so engaging and told us about the food. The food was incredible. Everyone said how amazing he was. The presentation was amazing. I literally cannot fault a single thing. He made the evening for us.

Nikola was an amazing chef every dish was incredible and made for an excellent start to our holiday. We would highly recomend this chef !!!

Chef Dadi! We had an incredible experience, the food was amazing and was perfect for my birthday holiday. There was a variety of dishes, traditional balinense, pan Asian, BBQ. It was great to experience all his dishes made with love and care. & delivered with such hospitality! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Chef!

Our dinner with Chef Soluna was amazing! The dishes were incredible and he catered for our groups needs perfectly! He was very professional, highly recommended

We had a great experience with the whole family. Very special to eat together in a beautiful place with a very friendly chef and really nice Japanese menu. We really recommend this to do this in Tokyo!

Just brilliant! Simple to organise, brilliant vibe, & such great food!

Matthew was wonderful! The best meal we’ve had during our stay on Madeira. He cleaned up after himself, and the presentation was fantastic.

Todo fue fácil desde que llegó a casa, una organización impecable con un trato de confianza. Los platos y comida fue un éxito para todos los comensales y, la idea propuesta de 17 platos encantó y dio posibilidad de opinar referencias, diferencias en sabores y originalidad de cada uno. La calidad ayudó muchísimo, era muy alta. El servicio que acompañó al Chef fue fundamental al conseguir una atención constante, cuidada y super delicada, todo el mundo tenía lo que necesitaba en cada momento. La velada fue tan buena que se alargó durante mucho tiempo gracias a la experiencia gastronómica y ambiente que se consiguió. Gracias Álvaro y Raquel.

Chef Isis was amazing. My group of 16 had the pleasure of tasting her Puerto Rican Menu and it did not disappoint. We opted to let her choose the menu items as we wanted to experience what she liked to cook and it was amazing, and a bit of a surprise for each of us as the next course was served. Everything was great, from start to finish. Highly recommend Chef Isis.

amazing dinner experience for my sister’s bachelorette! such a good 4 course lemon-themed meal, was so accommodating and even brought 2 types of drinks and table cloths/napkins for us! highly recommend booking with simone :)
