I can say this was a truly wonderful experience, Jeancarlo was amazing in all aspects, I did this dinner as a surprise for my husband and he understood the assignment , we texted for a few days before the day of the dinner and he was always very attentive and understood all my instructions, he adjusted to some menu changes that I wanted to do and overall very very nice experience dealing with him . The food was excellent! So tasty and wonderfully plated , we were very happy with his food , his presentation and how respectful he was . A 100% recommend him!

Emmanuel was an absolute superstar, communication was amazing, food was Devine, he provided such a comfortable atmosphere where we could relax and knew everything was being taken care of! It was the perfect treat for us Mums having a weekend away, we were actually brought to tears being able to experience someone cooking for us and not us cooking for someone and it being absolutely amazing I could not recommend enough will definitely reach out to Emmanuel if we are ever in Tauranga again!

Chef Dave was awesome! He presented us with an incredible menu and stories to go along with it! The food was delicious and bread pudding was second to none! We highly recommend Chef Dave! Thank you!

Georgi is a fantastic chef. The whole experience was incredible. Great food, beautifully presented. And the kitchen was left super tidy when he left. The whole meal from start to finish was amazing. Better than I dared hope. I couldn't fault a single thing. We'd definitely do it again.

Paris was an incredible chef and kind person! His food was absolutely amazing - every dish incredible and amazing. My husband and I had zero complaints. He was incredibly friendly and kind. Would highly recommend him and can't wait until we can book him for another event!

Great experience - very friendly & professional. The soup was incredible!

Sabrina was amazing and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The food was too notch, presentation beautiful and I’m still enjoying the leftovers! Will definitely be using her again.

I was impressed how well everthing went.

Alysha made my wife’s birthday dinner an amazing experience! Truly fantastic food with a nice wine pairing, great conversation, and added ambience. Can’t recommend Alysha enough. Looking forward to our next special occasion!

Denis and his helper were excellent. They arrived in plenty of time And got straight to work. We had a party of 14 for a special occasion . They prepared a delicious starter and two mains, one beef and one fish. Everyone raved about the dishes and I tried both! They were delicious. Service was professional and very unobtrusive. I would definitely recommend Denis!

Bryan was incredible. He prepared incredible food for us and made it a very positive experience. I would highly recommend hiring Bryan for your event!

Chef Don's service was immaculate. We were a group of 7 women that are foodies that love to eat good food. Every single one of my friends and sisters said that EVERY SINGLE dish was delicious. The food was very palatable , flavorful, and appetizing. The presentation of the food was beautiful, the professionalism and attentiveness of Chef Don was unmatched. If I could give him 100 stars, that would not be enough. Thank you Chef Don! Listen, if you want to hear me tell you how good this food was, just send me a DM @SharondaArnoldOcean No CAP. lol :-)

Chef Raph was fantastic! He went above and beyond to make the night special. Each dish was delicious an had an unexpected twist to delight and surprise us. The ingredients were so fresh. Chef Raph was very easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend Chef Raph to anyone who wants an amazing experience

Michael was very professional and attentive, responded quickly. Worked with me to set up the perfect menu based on my preference. Swapped a few dishes to make it more special. Appetizers were perfect, we also added a special cocktail hour for an extra $150 and it was well worth it. The food was presented restaurant style and quality and tasted great! Would definitely have him come back for any future parties.

Chef William was incredible. He accommodated our dietary restrictions and made gorgeous dishes for us to enjoy. He was very efficient and engaged. I would highly recommend using Chef William !

This was my first ever time using a personal home chef. After this experience it will not be the last! Chef Pasquale was the upmost professional. The party was for a bachelor party and the chef went above and beyond my expectations. From punctuation to follow-up; a class act. He worked with me to curate a menu that worked and adhered to all dietary standards I had requested. During the event, he was engaging and very professional. He spoke to each dish and even provided more the favored dishes. As far as the quality of the food; there is not too much to say that would not result in another 3 paragraphs. Every singe dish was made with care and quality. There was one particular dish that was a mushroom and pork belly flat bread. It was my favorite and an absolute hit of the night. The event was roughly two months ago and I still have friends and family talking about it with me. Overall it was an absolutely wonderful experience that turned a typical bachelor party night into a fantastic and unforgettable event. I could not thank Chef Pasquale more for his part in making this evening what it was. Going forward I would recommend this Chef to anyone.

On the 1st of October 2023, I hosted a group of my close friends for Lunch at my place in Midstream Ridge. Victor took time to communicate his proposed Menu, afforded me an opportunity to alter the menu. Chef Victor and Mpono (His assistant) arrived on time, did a marvelous job in setting up for the occasion and prepared the food to beyond our expectations. Mpono was so amazing in her hospitality and ensure my guests were cared for throughout, they still appreciating the experienced they received. The food was delicious, and the rates are also reasonable. If you are looking to give your guests and experience of a lifetime, high quality food then Chef Victor is your person. My guests say if they were to rate their experience out of 10, it would be a 12 for them .

It was a gift from my boss and it was incredible.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Chef Angie to cater a special family wedding of 12 people, and I can't say enough about how fantastic the experience was from start to finish. From the very beginning, Chef Angie's communication was impeccable. She took the time to understand our preferences and helped us tailor the menu to exactly what we had in mind before we even confirmed the booking. Her willingness to accommodate our specific desires made the planning process a breeze. On the day of the event, Chef Angie and her additional staff member arrived a full 5 minutes early to our Airbnb, which was a sign of her professionalism and commitment to delivering an exceptional experience. As they began food prepping and cooking, Chef Angie shared her background with us, creating a personal connection that added to the overall warmth of the evening. Timing is crucial at any event, and Chef Angie nailed it. She arrived at 3 PM to prepare for a 6 PM meal, and everything was executed flawlessly. The food was served piping hot and with perfect timing, ensuring that every dish was savored at its best. The menu we selected included one salad, one appetizer, one flatbread, two entrees, and two desserts, all served family-style. The result was an array of flavors that delighted our taste buds and left everyone at the table raving. Not only was the food delicious, but it was also presented beautifully, demonstrating Chef Angie's attention to detail. By the end of the evening, we were all pleasantly stuffed, and while we didn't have many leftovers, it was a testament to how much everyone enjoyed the meal. The unanimous consensus among our guests was that this dining experience far exceeded anything we could have had at a restaurant. In summary, Chef Angie's performance at our family wedding was nothing short of amazing. Her culinary skills, attention to detail, and warm, personable approach made the evening unforgettable. It's rare to find a chef who not only delivers on their promises but goes above and beyond to create a truly exceptional dining experience. Without a doubt, I would rate Chef Angie a perfect 10/10. Thank you, Chef Angie, for making our special day even more special with your incredible talent and dedication. You have our heartfelt gratitude
