Currently, I'm proud to be the Sous Chef at The Westin in Buckhead.

Chef Amanda was amazing! She came right on time, was incredibly organized, cheerful, and professional. She made us and our guests feel so comfortable and taken care of. It was the best Anniversary dinner we’ve had! The food was even better than I imagined. The depth of flavor and beautiful presentation was 5 stars and beyond. After the meal my kitchen was immaculate. We will never forget this meal and great experience.

Hiring Amanda as our private chef for our anniversary dinner was, without a doubt, the BEST decision we've ever made — and we are STILL talking about it four days later! My husband said "You did your big one with this one, the only way you can top this is with courtside tickets to a basketball game" LOL. From the moment Amanda arrived, she set the tone for an absolutely unforgettable evening. She was punctual, warm, and immediately made us feel at ease in our own home. Her professionalism was evident in every single detail — from the way she organized her workspace to the seamless, almost invisible way she worked throughout the evening, allowing my husband and I to be fully present and enjoy each other's company. But the food? Good God Almighty! Words genuinely fall short. Every dish was a masterpiece — beautifully presented, perfectly seasoned, and bursting with flavor. Our favorite was the Garlic Shrimp Bruschetta - my husband had to stop me from eating more so I could still have room for the main course (lol) Amanda didn't just cook a meal; she crafted an entire experience. Each course felt intentional and elevated, the kind of dining you'd expect at a world-class restaurant, yet with an intimacy and personal touch that no restaurant could ever replicate. ON TOP OF THAT (!!!) she had made enough food so that we had leftovers for the next day (which I could only cry out of joy because it was THAT good). She also left leftover ingredients like the pistachio nuts she used for her salad so we could enjoy them for the days to come. Amanda's passion for her craft is undeniable. You can taste the love and expertise in every bite. She turned our anniversary into a truly magical memory that my husband and I will cherish for years to come. If you ever thought about hiring a private chef — definitely do it and book Amanda!!! She is SO talented, and she will absolutely exceed every expectation you have. We cannot recommend her highly enough! ????️✨
