Chef Bandy was INCREDIBLE. He was so kind - cooking for us in our home for my boyfriend’s birthday. He made us feel so comfortable! Chef cooked Beef Wellington (because we never get that dish!!!) with asparagus and special potatoes, great salad and dessert. It was a wonderful experience. We will hire him again to come back and cook for us. He loves making French food but is so good at so many things! I made this little menu too because it was a surprise.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 2 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • Dessert • American - formal • Asian • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • I'm flexible • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Bandy recently worked an event for our party. Over 50 people coming and going all night. Chef and his team cooked, served, and communicated with our guests the entire time. Everyone was impressed. They showed up on time, got right to work, cleaned up everything afterward, and all for a very affordable price. We will definitely look at using Chef Bandy again

Details: Birthday or anniversary party • Cocktail hour or hors d'oeuvres • Barbecue • Buffet • I'm flexible • Outdoor venue • Yes, partial kitchen (fridge and sink only) • 40 - 49 guests • Standard (basic ingredients)

Chef Bandy is incredible. Not only is his food delicious, he is responsive and very easy to work with it. I enjoyed having him in my home as he is very friendly and warm to be around. He cooked my family’s meals for the week. He was fast and left my kitchen way cleaner than he found it. Chef Bandy gets 10 out of 10, I highly recommend.

Details: Regular meal • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Breakfast / brunch • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Mexican / Latin American • Southern • Italian • Asian • Vegetarian or vegan • Nut allergies • Dairy intolerant • I'm flexible • A few times per month • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Amazing Meal Prep Chef..! I hired Chef Bandy to help me with healthy, protein-packed meal prep; and the experience was outstanding! Here’s why I highly recommend them: Healthy & Delicious Meals – Every dish was flavorful while being low-calorie, high-protein, and packed with veggies. No boring diet food here! Perfect for My Goals** – With 13 prepped meals (lunch & dinner), I know I will stay on track all week without stressing about cooking. Great Effort & Attention** – The chef listened to my needs and made sure meals supported weight loss while keeping me full and satisfied. Affordable & Transparent** – Charged a very reasonable fee and even brought his own seasonings and fresh veggies —I just supplied the protein, which kept costs reasonable. Convenient & Reliable** – Meals were neatly arranged and packed, ready to grab-and-go all week. No stress, no excuses! Delicious & Nutrient-Dense** – Every meal was **flavorful and satisfying** (no bland diet food!), with smart seasoning and perfect portions to support my calorie goals. If you need a meal prep chef who cares about your health goals, I recommend Chef Bandy. Thanks to his assistance, I’m eating healthy meals without feeling deprived! Would 100% hire again!

Details: Regular meal • 1 guest • Lunch • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Italian • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Asian • I'm flexible • Weekly • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
