Chef David is everything you would want in a personal chef and more. From the initial discussions surrounding planning of the event, to the final pull through of the event, everything was perfect. Chef David put together a well thought out menu for 11 guests for my Girlfriends surprise birthday dinner party. Each part of the meal was better than the previous and was topped off with an excellent desert choice. Needless to say, Chef David is my go to choice for personal chef moving forward! Highly recommended for any person looking at his services!

Everyone raved about the food and planning with Chef David was fabulous. He adapted to meet our needs and wishes, worked with us to customize menu. He was also flexible allowing us to cover beverages and sweets and following up with invoice to clearly state who was doing what the day of the event!
