We had the most amazing experience with Betina! I needed a private chef for my friend’s bachelorette trip and she delivered. Her and her assistant set up the table for us- which was beautiful and aesthetic. The food was phenomenal, her and her assistant were lovely, and they made the whole experience so much fun. We will be using her if we go back. 10/10 would recommend.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • I'm flexible • Asian • Mexican / Latin American • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Italian • American - formal • French • I'm flexible • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Betti and her team absolutely blew us away. From accommodating our dietary quirks to obsessing over every last detail, they turned dinner into an event. She made gluten-free dessert that was mind-blowingly delicious. Add in gorgeous tableware, friendly faces, and fresh incredible tasting food, and you’ve got a private-chef experience that’s hard to top. Highly recommended!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Dessert • I'm flexible • Dessert • American - casual • American - formal • Italian • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Gluten free or celiac • Nut allergies • I'm flexible • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

The experience was amazzzing! Betti showed up early, left late and sculpted an awesome menu. My partner and I were very appreciative. Def will contact again and refer to friends. Thanks Betti!

Betti and her daughter bartended for a family event for 65 people. I was so impressed with all aspects of their work. We didn’t want to serve alcohol, and Betti worked with us and created an extensive and delicious mocktail menu, and included lemon water, lemonade, and tea and coffee service. There were a couple last minute ‘hiccups’ on my end and Betti and her daughter were professional and understanding and able to roll with it and not miss a beat and still provide amazing service. I’m so grateful they were part of our event and would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Details: 51 - 75 guests • Special occasion • Formal / elegant • Public venue • Wine • Non-alcoholic beverages • Bartender will need to bring the bar • Tip jars allowed • Setup / cleanup • Ice • Disposable cups • Coolers • Glassware
