10/10 experience! I highly recommend Chef Cody, he is such a sweetheart and worked so hard to make our evening perfect. He did an amazing job at catering for a small event at my house and it was beautiful. The attention to detail and flavours were phenomenal, and for the price, it was a total bargain. Thank you again for making it such a delicious and special evening. Can't wait till round 2!

We have hired Cody for multiple occasions. Without a doubt you will not find a better personal chef. He has done 3 of our dinner parties and they have been phenomenal to say the least. (And catered beautifully to our friends with dietary restrictions). He also did food prep for my husband when I was out of town and he loved it.

Thank you Eleanor. It has been a pleasure working for you and Charlie!

Cody cooked dinner for my husband’s birthday. He got back to me very quickly after I reached out and planned a great Italian menu that catered to all dietary needs and preferences. The food was beyond fantastic. It was so flavorful and the presentation was beautiful. The evening was so enjoyable thanks to Cody.
