Whitney's service and food was amazing. She offered a variety of dishes, from appetizers to main courses and desserts, using fresh and authentic ingredients. I hired Chef Whitney for my fiance's birthday and she arrived with all the necessary equipment and ingredients, and set up in no time. She was friendly and professional, and explained the menu to us. She was attentive and courteous, and cleaned up everything after she was done. I would highly recommend Chef Whitney. She is a talented and professional personal chef who can create delicious dishes for any occasion.

Having Whitney as our personal Chef was the highlight of our weekend. From the very first message all the way through Whitney was kind and responsive. She walked in the door with the most delicious smelling bread. The meal she created for us, was some of the best food I've ever tasted. Every part of the experience was amazing! I would highly recommend Whitney for any event!

The first words that comes to mind when I think of my experience working with Chef Whit is "WOW"! First of all, her communication was 10/10 - very quick to respond, offer ideas, and an all around joy to chat with prior to, during, and after our event. Then of course, there is the food. I am still drooling! The custom menu that Chef Whit prepared for our party was simply delicious, I cannot recommend the New York Strip with Peppercorn + Smoked Onion + Winter Herb Chimichurri enough... and the Butter Cake Warm Peach Compote + Cinnamon Whipped Cream was to die for! The staff that Chef Whit brought along were also outstanding! They were very professional and personable, while keeping it light-hearted and fun. I will recommend Chef Whit to anyone and everyone looking for an outstanding, professional, and talented caterer - and I look forward to working with her again in the future! My only regret is that I forgot to take home leftovers... because the craving is real!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 21 - 35 guests • Dinner • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dessert • I'm flexible • Dessert • Hot beverages (coffee, tea, etc.) • American - casual • American - formal • Italian • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Mexican / Latin American • Asian • Barbecue • French • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location
