Chef Christoff prepared a beautiful meal for my sister’s 60th birthday celebration. The food quality was amazing and the attention to detail made the dinner unforgettable. He was very professional, but so fun to be around. We will definitely use the Polished Fork for future events and celebrations. Thank you Chef!!

We recently had a work dinner party with customers from out of the country. We wanted to have a more intimate and personal experience than simply taking them to a nice restaurant. I hadn't used a private chef before, we found Christoff online based on reviews and glad we did. He was punctual, had a good variety of menu options, he also walked me through some suggestions which came out great. We chose the plated dinner option for a party of 14. Christoff as well supplied the plates and cutlery for presentation with his service which was a nice, classy touch. This made for such a great evening that was a wonderful experience for my customers and us that we received many follow up messages from them even after they returned back to their home countries what a wonderful time they had and how special it was. If you are looking to make a dinner night special, Chef Christoff will not disappoint and I would definitely recommend him. Dwane Morrison Orange County, CA

Chef Christoff (Chris) and his wife Vicki came by our Airbnb in Temecula to make dinner for my friends birthday on her bachelorette weekend. From the moment they stepped into our Airbnb to when they left, Chris and Vicki were fun, sweet, warm and very professional! As we wondered through the house dancing and getting ready, the girls were able to stop by the kitchen chat with the chefs, have a drink and enjoy the progress of our dinner. For our meal we had the pear/arugula salad, bone marrow, Bruchetta and salmon/lamb with parsnip purée and broccolini. Every dish and every bite was Devine and delicious! We wish Chef Chris and Vicki lived closer to the Bay Area so we could see them all the time!!

From first contact to the end of our event, Chef Christoff was an absolute pleasure to work with. He truly goes above and beyond to create a personalized experience and I could not be happier with the result. The food was incredible. Bravo Chef!
