Amazing

Chef Cintia was wonderful! The entire menu she created for our group was delicious and noticeably made with quality ingredients. She is kind, respectful, and very talented!

We had an incredible experience with private chef Sara Torre during our stay in Sicily! Cooking for a group of 13, including both adults and children, is no small task, but everything was handled so effortlessly and professionally. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and made with fresh, local ingredients. I would highly recommend this chef to anyone looking for a special and memorable dining experience in Sicily. 5 stars without hesitation!

I want to start by saying that this was the first time I have done something like this and it may be one of the best experiences I have ever had. Chef Jimmy was one of the coolest people I've ever met. Great conversation, great person, and the food was just the icing in the cake. Everything was delicious, came out fast, and looked immaculate as well. I would recommend 100 out of 100 times

Tout était parfait. Je recommande vivement les services du chef DALUZ.

Isaac is a very polite and professional chef. He sticks to agreements, is flexible, and prepared everything so well that he created a fantastic dinner even with a limited kitchen. Communication was fast and professional. We’re very satisfied and highly recommend him.

Our Chef was very polite and professional! He was well prepared, and started his preparations after a short introduction. All of the dishes were presented beautifully and the full descriptions were informative. Overall 10/10! Would definitely recommend Takeachef!

Marius was an amazing chef for us! His communication leading up to the event was excellent. He explained everything and answered any questions. His menu had plenty of choices and was able to cater for our dietary needs. On the day, he was prompt, so efficient in cooking, he was quick and blended into the kitchen so easily. The food was beautiful! Every dish was perfect and well presented. He included special surprises as a treats and we had an incredible evening thanks to Marius. We appreciate your effort and everyone had nothing but praise for you! Thanks so much. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience!

Ho scelto Enrica Patane’ per un pranzo di compleanno. Enrica e’ un ottimo chef, mi ha proposto un variegato menù di pesce che poi abbiamo personalizzato insieme. Il cibo di ottima qualità’ e cucinato magnificamente. E’ una persona simpatica, puntuale, professionale ed estremamente organizzata. La consiglio vivamente

We had Rafael cooking for 9 of us for a special hen do! He was on time and the food was absolutely amazing, he described each dish as they came out. He was very friendly and polite and the whole process was amazing from the booking it to the end, he was very helpful with adapting the menu for a vegetarian in the group nothing was too much work! The kitchen was spotless after he was finished! I would highly recommend!!

Tout s’est parfaitement déroulé, merci infiniment ! Je recommande sans hésitation.

Antonio was absolutely fantastic. He was punctual, polite and left the place absolutely spotless. We cannot fault him at all. The food was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes were really large. The brownie was particularly delicious and everyone commented on how tasty it was. He was also so amazing with allergens. He made one of our friends a special dessert and she was so happy to not have just fruit like she normally gets. It’s also worth noting that Antonio worked so well considering we had no lights for around half an hour and he still carried on cooking so there was no delay. He also went and sorted getting a new gas canister himself. Thank you for this! It is so appreciated. All in all, Antonio was the perfect chef. Thank you for being brilliant and making our night so wonderful. We would recommend you to anyone in a heartbeat!

Un grand merci au chef Kara pour cette prestation. Le chef est génial et très professionnel. Tout était excellent. Nous recommandons vivement chef Kara pour passer un très bon moment autour d'un excellent repas. Merci encore pour cette superbe prestation.

Brilliant experience! He arranged a dinner of high level, fixed everything and had relaxed nice attitude. Top class!

Damian ha sido muy atento, perfil bajo, hizo su trabajo sin molestar. A la hora de presentar los platos nos los conto con pasion. Llego puntual y se marcho sin incidentes, dejo la cocina como si no hubiera pasado por ahi. Los platos muy pensados, con historia y detalle. Una experiencia muy positiva, nos ha encantado!

Giuseppe is amazing chef! It was very incredible experience and birthday. So delicious food so well organized. And he is so kind and so nice as a person. Very professional!!! Thanks a lot. We will come back!
