Chef JaQuis was amazing! I actually hired him for a Mother’s Day dinner celebration in Tampa for my boss and his family. They all are raving about how wonderful JaQuis is as a person, and even more so about the 7 course meal he prepared. Their family has one food allergy, so special portions were created for him. All perfection. I’ve never hired a chef that they have loved remotely as much as JaQuis! I highly recommend him, and we will definitely reach out to him in the future.

Details: Holiday meal (Mother's day, Valentine's day, etc.) • 3 - 5 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dinner • Dessert • Premium (high end ingredients) • Dessert • Italian • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location

This was our first private chef experience and he did NOT disappoint!! This was such a fun, elegant experience for our group of women to enjoy. Each dish was perfectly created to the palate we described for him. The attention to detail in the plating, the way all of the flavors combined, the professionalism of both the chef and his assistant were truly amazing. They had music on for us to enjoy, the courses were timed perfectly, and everything tasted AMAZING. They were truly a team, and made our whole experience so fun and exciting. We would absolutely hire them again!!

Our wedding dinner was amazing! He helped us plan the menu beforehand and exceeded expectations on our wedding day. We would definitely hire chef JacQues again for future events.

From our very first conversation with Chef JacQues, we instantly connected with him and he fully understood our vision for our wedding. When looking at his portfolio, we were captivated by his plating and elegance. His extreme professionalism, charisma, and talent made our decision to use his services so easy. Throughout our planning, Chef was very communicative, intentionally listened to our goals, and created the menu of our dreams for our wedding. He took time out of his personal schedule to come for a site visit, learn the venue, and asked thoughtful questions to ensure our day would run smoothly. His detailed timelines were appreciated by all of my vendors and gave me comfort in knowing I wouldn't have to think twice about anything on the day of the wedding. The food that we had at our wedding was truly the best meal I've ever had in my life. From the canapés to salad to our main course, every plate was put out on schedule, perfectly cooked (every bite of meat and fish was UNREAL), and plated like a work of art. Chef was incredibly accommodating for our vegan guest and made her a special plate that was just as incredible. Every guest at my wedding was absolutely blown away and is still talking about it a week later. This is a dinner we will NEVER forget. Chef's passion for cooking and lighthearted personality also added so much to our evening! Our guests loved watching him cook and appreciated the time he took to explain what was for each course and the intention behind his decisions. Not only was Chef amazing to work with, but his team was amazing! Everyone was highly professional and took care of every guests' needs as if they were the only one in the room. You can tell how much they all respect and adore Chef which speaks volumes to his leadership. I cannot wait to use Chef's services as often as possible for the rest of my life. I couldn't recommend him more if I tried! Look no further...I promise you will not regret it!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 21 - 35 guests • Dinner • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Premium (high end ingredients) • Cold beverages (non-alcoholic) • American - formal • Vegetarian or vegan • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

This was our first experience with a personal chef and THE EXPERIENCE WAS OUTSTANDING. The Chef assessed my expectations and he delivered. He quickly and patiently responded when I had questions, he thorughly explained food preparation techniques, and he offered excellent suggestions for my husband's 60th BD celebration. My husband and his 5 golf buddies were blown away with the professional services the Chef and his team provided. THE FOOD had all 6 of them licking their spoons.
