We had Chef Gregory Torres come for 2 breakfasts. it was a great experience and I recommend that you book him :)

Our Chef was great. Before the meal: communication, menu proposal and food preferences accommodation was excellent. Meal: Chef and partner were personable, dishes were explained, ingredients were fresh, local and high quality and presentation and cleanup was very good. We were a group of 8 friends in a holiday rental and it was a great evening! We would definitely book Chef again and/or use Take a Chef service.

Chef Nate made a beautiful and delicious dinner. We really enjoyed the experience and would do it again!

Unbelievable experience with Chef Luis and his team, highly recommend to everyone. Thank you for making our trip unforgettable

Chef Sergi - ensured my family had an exceptional experience. A small birthday dinner for my family was transformed into an evening of memories based on a Catalonian menu prepared with excellent locally sourced ingredients. A delicious meal became a life experience!

Lazar was absolutely top-notch ! From the initial contact , deciding on the dishes, to preparing the food at our place, serving the food and cleaning up. 1000000% to be recommended to anyone who wants the extra special touch for a special occassion :-) All dishes were fantastic, but the best was his beef ... melted in our mouth ...

Chef Morgan was beyond what I ever could have expected. He turned a quiet dinner to celebrate my husband’s birthday into the most intimate, romantic and delicious affair! He is so incredibly talented with him menu curation and listened to exactly what we wanted in a menu and delivered THE most spectacular experience. Choose Chef Morgan. You will be so happy and grateful you did. Thank you so so much! This was a dinner we will never forget! :)

Amazing experience! The chef was professional, friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was well prepared, beautifully presented, and tasted amazing. We truly enjoyed every dish and the entire experience. Amazing experience!

Chef Paul prepared an amazing dinner for us. Everything was so delicious and well presented. We had a fantastic night abc would highly recommend!

Valentina and her son Lorenzo both tended to us during our stay in a private villa in Puglia. Not only were they very communicative, always willing to help and very kind, they were incredible chef's. They taught us a lot about the food, let us have a pizza making night , did wine tasting, prepared food we asked for and surprised us with classic Italian dishes from the region. Besides being very accommodating and talented, they actually became an important part of our trip. All 8 of us loved to have them around, enjoyed talking with them and even tried to convince them to move to America. Valentina was the perfect choice for our trip and we would hire her again with no hesitation. In a country full of incredible chef's, she stands out with kindness, hard work and passion that is unmatched.

Amazing experience! Communication was great, the food was unforgettable.

We had a dinner for 10 at our Villefranche-sur-mer villa with Alex Kors and it was incredible. The coordination beforehand was easy. He was accommodating for some dietary restrictions. Most importantly, the food was really delicious. Our group ate at some top restaurants during our stay and at the end of the trip, multiple people commented that Alex's dinner was their favorite. The salmon carpaccio in particular was a crowd favorite.

Kadek came to our villa to cook dinner for my fiancé and I. We only requested his service 24 hours in advance and he was able to accommodate everything we requested. From the moment he arrived we were blown away, he was lovely to chat to and we enjoyed listening to him explain his cooking experiences and the food preparation. Besides that, the food was incredible, the flavours of the dishes blew us away and everything tasted amazing. It was a perfect experience and I would really recommend to anyone wanting an intimate dinner prepared by an experienced chef. Thank you Kadek!

An excellent evening dinner hosted by Romain - thank you so much

Maria was absolutely incredible! When I initially reached out, she was the first to respond to my party’s dietary needs without negatively impacting the experience or quality of the menu. She was communicative, kind, and a delight to have at our event. I appreciated her professionalism and approachability. Each dish was incredibly delicious and beautifully plated. I would highly recommend Maria for any private events!

Monica and Rodrigo were fantastic! We booked on short notice with a lot of dietary requirements. They made a perfect menu with our theme of a spanish & mediterranean brunch. It was fully vegan and tasted delicious. They had a lovely story and even prepared an eggless cake the next day for our anniversary. Can’t recommend them enough!

We had a wonderful experience with Chef George Dimitriadis, especially considering our large group of twelve family members. Chef George balanced upscale, authentic Greek dining with the diverse preferences of a multi-generational group. Every dish utilized the freshest local ingredients to create unforgettable dinners. The breadth of variety was almost overwhelming. We took time to set a great menu, and yet pleasant surprises regularly appeared. What truly set the experience apart was the Chef's warmth. Chef George kept the atmosphere relaxed, welcoming, and fun. He spent time with people who wanted to understand the ingredients and history associated with each dish. If you are looking for an exceptional, stress-free culinary experience in Greece for a large family or group, we cannot recommend Chef George highly enough. Rich & Lindy B Napa CA

Chef Alejandro was amazing. The whole experience was something I would recommend to everyone. His attention to detail, the taste of every dish and his ability to cater for our vegetarian and vegan friends was so professional. We all couldn’t stop talking about the meal afterwards!! Thank you for helping create such a special meal for all of us.

She was incredible. Despite an infestation of hornets in the kitchen she kept going. What an amazing woman
