Introduction: I have cooked in 8 countries and have only worked at 5 star places. I also graduated from the Culinary Institute of America, which is the top of the line as far as Culinary Schools. I love the variety and the potential challenge that each job brings. Being a chef is a lot like being an artist. Each client I work with gives me the opportunity to use my creative skills to bring their ideas to the table.

Colin made cooking for our staff party a great experience. The food was fantastic and everyone really enjoyed interacting with him as he presented the different courses he prepared for us. I couldn't have been more pleased and will be using Colin for private dinner parties in the months ahead.

We started working with Chef Colin earlier this year. Not only is his food spectular, Chef Colin is very personable and easy to work with. Cooking for my young children can be a challenge but Chef Colin is able to make meals they enjoying while offering my wife and I delicious options as well. This is especially hard since my wife is a vegitarian and one of my children has a severe food allegery. We've also hired Chef Colin for plated dinners and parties. I highly recommend Chef Colin for your next event or as your families personal chef.

Colin was magnificent at a sit down formal dinner for 18 people. We were celebrating an engagement and everyone was so impressed with the 10 course meal he prepared, plated and served.

I was planning a surprise birthday dinner party for my wife. It had to be extra special, something she would remember for a lifetime. I called Colin to get suggestions and arrange for his services on that night. Colin prepared and served a fabulously wonderful 7 course meal that was fit for my queen and the guests. Colin's professionalism and congeniality augmented the already exquisite dinner. I look forward to using his services in the future.

Chef Colin is awesome and can cook any type of food. This is due from having worked in various parts of the world and experienced many foods. He can accommodate to any food requests and dietary preferences.
