Chef Daniella was absolutely wonderful. Her Middle Eastern menu was delicious, perfectly spiced and beautifully presented. She was great about including our 3 young granddaughters in the preparation and explained everything as she was cooking. She made our 40th anniversary dinner with our family a truly special and memorable occasion.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • Dessert • French • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Dani and her sous chef/server Jen served a birthday dinner for me and eleven others. The food was outstanding and the presentation was off the charts excellent. One of the best parts of the whole experience was the calm cool and fun atmosphere they brought with them. They were having fun and so were we. One of my guests even commented that they loved the "pace" of the party. It was very relaxed. Chef kept me informed as to their ETA on the day of the event so I always knew what to expect. They arrived and promptly went to work and had everything ready at all the right times. The serving was attentive but not invasive, it was perfect. Planning the event and the menu was easy and communication via email and text was exacty as it should be. I highly recommend Chef Dani and Jen. I hope to use them again. Rick O.

She cooked for my husbands 40th in Napa. We had no dietary restrictions so I encouraged her to cook whatever she thinks she’s best at- and she did just that! A delicious Israeli/Moroccan meal. She was very easy to communicate with in advance, would work with her again.
