I recently hired Jacob as a personal chef for some events we were hosting at our home and the food was fantastic! The guests were so impressed with the quality of the dishes that were served. Jacob was responsive to our requests and needs and was professional throughout each of the experiences. His use of organic, farm to table ingredients was exactly what we wanted and the ingredients he chose created delicious meals. I will be hiring Jacob again and would highly recommend him as a in-home Personal Chef or for any catering needs.

Jacob did a great job putting together a quote with fair pricing for us. I could tell he loves what he does and puts a lot of thought into it! He was very passionate as we collaborated. We didn’t end up hiring him as there was another company that offered some extra things like a bartender and decorations. We ended up choosing them for that reason. But I would definitely hire Jacob for another event in the future.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • Cold beverages (alcoholic) • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.
