I was so nervous getting a chef since this was my first time. I wanted something of different flavors and he came through. We had 3 days of catering from brunch to dinner. When I tell you everything was amazing. The food was not under cooked or over seasoned. I can’t wait to come back to Miami for his cooking again. Amazing work. 🙏🏾

My family hosted a reunion and rented a home in the Fort Lauderdale area. The Chef and Shirley were very responsive, detail oriented, punctual and the food was excellent. They provided us with 4 meals, one in which they provided the service staff. The service staff really made the formal dinner complete. I would recommend the Chef to my friends and family. Thanks for making our family reunion a wonderful affair.
