Chef Erika developed menu options to meet the varied dietary needs of my guests and smoothly blended all the differing aspects together to create a delicious and memorable event for my husband's birthday. Her suggestions were perfect for the crowd and the dinner was amazing. She also blended the instructional aspects of the preparation into the conversation with our guests so the evening felt natural and relaxed. I'll definitely be calling upon her again!

Erika was delightful! Her food was of the highest quality, tasted fantastic and was very creative. She was able to cater to the people in our group with specific dietary needs without shortchanging those without challenges. Erika was easy to work with and we'd gladly hire her again.

I’m not one to write reviews but I feel compelled to given my overwhelmingly positive experience with Erika. I hired Erika to prepare a dinner for 16 people and a lunch the subsequent day for 30 people. Simply put, my whole experience with her was terrific. The food as well as her professionalism and punctuality exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be hiring her for my next event.

Chef Erika was a phenomenal asset for our 13 person dinner party. She cooked quickly and efficiently, we barely even knew she was there. The group was most impressed with her ability to not only cook healthy and delicious food, but accomdatefor a variety of dietary restrictions. She is the only chef we plan to use in the future for our private events and meal prep. A true professional who takes pride in her work. Thank you Erika!
