Chef Nina and her Sous chef Demi were WONDERFUL!
They prepared a wonderful cocktail hour for us, their plating was amazing, and attention to detail was ON POINT! We hired them for a private dinner party of 16 and everyone was thrilled with their selections. And I must say they are VERY fairly priced. We will definitely hire them for future events!

We used Nina for a 25 person lunch BBQ. The food and service was excellent, and we received so many compliments from our guests!! Working with Nina was very easy. She contacted me right away and sent me over menu options that were extremely well thought out. It made picking a meal very straightforward and simple. She showed up on time the day of the event and her and her team set everything up with a beautiful and thoughtful display. Our guests loved the food and having her handle the food made organizing our lunch so easy! I would recommend using Nina, and think she did an amazing job!

Chef Nina gave us such a great experience! The food was amazing and my girlfriends are still raving about it. We were celebrating my sisters 40 and we decided to have a night in to celebrate her during our girls extended weekend trip. Chef Nina is very responsive and professional. She went above and beyond to accommodate us! I’d definitely recommend her!!!
