We had Chef Rafa prepare us a home cooked meal on the last day of my bachelorette party. He was so accommodating and fed all 16 of us girls. He was professional and went above and beyond - specifically making do with the less than ideal kitchen in our air bnb. We loved the food and had a great time!

Chef Rafa helped cook an amazing mean for my sisters bachelorette party! It was 6 girls and each and everyone of us continue to talk about!
