Chef Munashe was absolutely fantastic. She put together a wonderful, local, in budget menu for me and my 9 family and friends. Throughout the whole process she was professional, attentive, and was very responsive on message to any of the changes needed. She put together over 40 plates in one evening, including appetisers, starters, mains, and dessert. All was cooked fresh - including steak and fresh pasta. I would genuinely reccomend her to anyone wanting a wonderful dinner party. She left our kitchen absolutely spotless. We had so much fun. Thank you, Chef Munashe!

Chef okamura a été exemplaire . A su s'adapter à nos contraintes . Merci et bravo !

Contratamos a Sebastián para el cumpleaños de mi mujer. Sebastián fue exquisito en todo, atento, amable, divertido, respetuoso. Se hizo con la cocina rápido y sin fallo alguno y nos regaló una velada estupenda. Los platos eran super adaptados a los gustos de la cumpleañera y pulcramente presentados (con las limitaciones que tiene mi casa!). Un 10, lo recomendaría 100%.

Como siempre, perfecto.

Excellent dinner, outstanding Chef!

We had the pleasure of having Chef Lerato cook for us on our friends’ engagement night, and the experience was exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavour and beautifully prepared. The dinner table setup and atmosphere were lovely. Chef Lerato was professional from start to finish, attentive without being intrusive, and made the evening feel truly special. We couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience. Highly recommended!

Chef Caila was absolutely incredible. She arrived on time and made the experience perfect for our engagement event. I will recommend Chef Caila to everyone I can.

Chef Miguel and Manny did an absolutely awesome job for us. Small group of three for my birthday with an authentic Mexican meal and we couldn't have been more pleased with the entire process. Chef Miguel served beautifully plated and delicious courses while Manny made us drinks, conversed with us, and assisted Chef the entire time. They brought everything they needed and left the kitchen spotless. Would highly recommend them, and will probably book them again next we're in Cabo San Lucas.

Incredible food and experience. 100% recommend for anyone to do this experience.

Denis was incredible - great food absolutely and he has a lovely energy. All our guests were delighted, as we were also!

Chef Dennis was excellent. We were staying in an airbnb so the kitchen was not particularly well stocked, but he was able to bring everything he needed and was able to serve us an excellent meal. He was incredibly neat and tidy and left everything spotless at the end of the night too.

Freda was a charming lady to have in our home

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Take the proposal you won’t regret it!!

El chef muy profesional, los platillos deliciosos, a mis invitados les encanto la comida, todo muy profesional

Chef David was absolutely fantastic! Very attentive and detailed. The food was fantastic and he did a great job with clean-up. Would highly recommend!

My chef was amazing. They were punctual and flexible around the number of guests and the amount of food. They brought their wife who was extremely charming. The food was exactly what we asked for and completely amazing. I would highly recommend this chef to anyone in the La Paz, Mexico vicinity.

Super good dinner. Really loved the presentation, the taste and his description of each dish. Thank you so much for the lovely meal! <3

Chef Cindy was incredibly responsive and flexible for our meals. She presented all the food in large quantities with nice explanations. We had many options and the food was well prepared. She came a very long way to take care of our family, which we really appreciated.

1 chef qui partage sa passion, cuisine raffinée. Repas au top ! à refaire Merci pour toutes les explications sur les plats de sa propre confection et pour les surprises finales! Plein de bons conseils et une mention spéciale pour le dessert. 1 étoile en moins, car c'est un supporter de l'OM :)

Our Chef didn’t speak much English, so the only reason he didn’t explain the dishes to us. However otherwise he was extremely professional and his food and service was amazing. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.
