If you're looking for an amazing personal chef, you found it in Taj. He was super easy to work with, so helpful, and always responded. It was an amazing experience and the food was delicious! My bachelorette party farewell brunch was a hit. Definitely booking again. ✔️

Chef Taj was fantastic! Me and my wife wanted to have a casual V day dinner due to our work schedules. Chef Taj was able to bring the fine dine experience home to us and we enjoyed every bit of it. The service was great. The food excellent. He set a wonderful table and served us. He cleaned up after for us and left the kitchen in great shape. Even had extra boxes to leaves us for leftovers. It was truly an all around great experience. Communication was easy and Chef Taj was responsive in a timely manner. He created a menu from our preferences and didnt mind any tweaks. He was truly only caring about our experience. High recommend for a nice dinner or get together.

My Experience with Chef Taj Yusef Boyd was excellent. The food and table presentation was very elegant and perfect for our anniversary dinner. The food itself exceeded my expectation and was beyond delicious. The Chef is definitely a culinary expert!! I highly recommend him for any occasion and especially for a Special Occasion. You will not be dissapointed, I promise you that. I will be using Chef Taj again soon, I am excited to have my family and friends taste his delicious food!!

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  Menus are personalized for each client based on their likes & desires. All events are priced per person and the average event contains 3 courses. The final price will be determined by the types of ingredients desired, number of people attending and number of courses. When I receive your final headcount I will finalize your menu and send it to you for your approval. A deposit of 50% of the final price is due in order to book. $100- $150 is nonrefundable, unless I am the reason for the cancellation, after receiving your deposit.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I will get to know the customer and their likes and dislikes in order to create an event that they envision. My goal is to listen to the customer and utilize my professional experience to make sure the event is as flawless as possible. I keep an open mind to customers desires and I ask that they do the same.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I graduated from Le Cordon Bleu Atlanta in 2006 and have been working in the food/hospitality industry since 2002. I have worked in Fine Dining & Catering, Golf Clubs and restaurants. I've held various positions in the industry such as Lead Line Cook, Sous Chef, Head Banquet Chef, and currently in the role of Executive Chef.
