I hired Chef Pato to surprise my husband with an Anniversary dinner. With a newborn, elementary aged kids with homework and my husband's busy work schedule it was too much effort to coordinate going out for dinner and hiring a sitter. Chef Pato was very professional. He communicated well in advance. He was punctual. He even incorporated meals for my young children. The food was delicious and his presentation was wonderful! We are considering him to come monthly for the same experience. You will not regret hiring him at all. I've already referred him to others and am about to contact him again for another service request.

Let me start by saying I arranged for The Happy Hour Private Chef to cook a meal for my parents in their home. I personally have not had his food, nor know him, other than reviews from this site.
Chef Antoine is very professional. He is a great communicator, responsive, and fair. My parents enjoyed his company and appreciated his thoughtful gestures.
I would say his speciality is not necessarily gourmet meals, more simple food done well...
Of note, my parents are older and very private people and they were very comfortable having him in their home, and I know when you are hiring an unknown person, this can be helpful information.
Send him an email and see what you think. Never hurts to ask, run an idea and see if there is a connection. Afterall, most of life is based on connections and chemistry. You don't know until you try...

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
It matters what type of event it is and what type of foods they want prepared. If it is a sit down plated meal my prices run from $60-$150 a person. If it is a catering event the prices vary if they want formal or casual events. I try to work with the potential client the best way that I can. I work the menu around their budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I do a consultation with them once they pick me as their chef. We will see what their budget is and what type of meal they want cooked. I cook what they want me to cook. A lot of caterers/chefs have menus already set. I don't believe in that because if you are paying me you should eat what you want to eat, not what I want you to eat.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
graduated from Le Cordon Bleu with honors. I also cooked at the Borgata Hotel and worked as a sous chef for Executive Chef Alassane Seck. I never stop thinking about cooking even on my days off. I am always reading and searching new ways of cooking.
