RUN, RUN from this man. We agreed to a three course Chef prepared meal for a dinner party that started at 7 pm. He was scheduled to arrive at 4 p.m to begin preparation for the dinner serving 12 people. He called at 5p.m. and said he was leaving work in 15 mins. At 6 pm he stated that his eta will be 6:40 pm, said some foolishness about rain and traffic. My guests began arriving at 7:10, he pulled up at 7:15 and began to frantically, slam pots and pans. He literally microwaved the food. The result: gumbo was watery, he did not serve one of the appetizers, he served Publix banana pudding, see pics, however, he did bake the chicken, AND harassed me for his balance in front of my guests because he "had to pay people" the actual people who cooked the food for him that he picked up, then when my back was turned, he stole a bottle of desert wine. He needs to reimburse me half of what I paid. He harassed me on purpose because I had no time to recap his errors and deduct for them. I wish I could give him zero star. DO NOT HIRE HIM, YOU WILL BE STRESSED OUT BECAUSE OF HIS UNPROFESSIONALISM AND HIS FOOD IS NOT WORTH IT. HE IS TRASH! I AM SERIOUSLY TAKING HIM TO JUDGE JUDY!

Details: Holiday meal (Mother's day, Valentine's day, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Dessert • Standard (basic ingredients) • Southern • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I am sorry you did not have a great experience, However in my defense, It was raining and there was traffic, so that is why i was late, i always cook all my food myself so nobody ever cooks for me, i told your husband which is very gracious and professional that i had to purchase banana pudding as i forgot it at home. I never asked you for money in front of your guest , you told me you would pay me tomorrow after i served all your guest, who does that? that's like going to a restaurant and eating and saying you will pay them the next day lol I washed all your dishes and served wine to your guest which was not included. I never took any wine from your home, and if my food was not worth it why did all your guest eat it and was asking me for my info to cater there parties, hence you are a Vegan so how much credibility is it that you have with food. If anything i did not charge you enough, especially with your nasty , uppity attitude and personality, Nevertheless i have learned from this experience, but who i feel sorry for is your Husband for having to put up with you, it has to be the money, you need God in your life, and hope you have a wonderful day !

Chef Augustino was a great decision. It was graduation present for my wife and he definitely understood the assignment. He was open and attentive to what I wanted. The spread and presentation were right on point
