Introduction: I provide uniquely tailored services to all of my clients. Whether a client needs a meal for two, meal prep, or banquet catering (weddings, corporate events, parties), I plan menus, source food, and present foods using my training from Four Seasons Hotels and my culinary background. I'm a minimalist who loves building flavors. I create unique dishes that use minimal ingredients in minimal space. I ensure that my meals are healthy, flavorful, and beautifully plated without compromising freshness and quality. My goal is simple: to make great food for everyone to enjoy. I love layering flavors and discovering new ingredients that make food taste great!

Chef Dorien prepared a scrumptious meal for my mom’s 79th birthday! As a first time customer, I was well pleased with the process from interviewing the company and speaking to the coordinator, Philip, to the day of the culinary experience! Chef Dorien exceeded my mom’s expectations; she especially loved the rose pedals and tea light candles! We plan to use CHEFFIN, LLC again for our special events. I can’t wait to experience Chef’s Dorien’s cuisines!

Dorien was on time and prepared. I surprised my wife for her birthday and had 6 guest. We really enjoyed our experience. It was amazing how quickly he prepared our meals in front of us. And the food taste so flavorful. We also did the Chocolate Experience. One of my guest don’t even eat chocolate but enjoyed every bite. We’re definitely bringing him back. Thank you , Philip and the rest of the Cheffin Team again for helping me pull an amazing night together.

We had an excellent experience working with Cheffin, LLC team for a charity dinner in November, 2021. The Project Manager, Philip Zwaig, is very professional, responsive, and courteous. He is knowledgeable and promptly provided requested information and was very accessible via email, phone call or thumbtack. The event planning process was very painless and I did not feel pressured or rushed in anyway. The menu provided a very good variety of choices for all courses and there was additional flexibility. Chef Dorian is very professional. Our guests were delighted and complimented about the quality of food as well as service provided by Chef Dorian. The ingredients used were fresh and good quality. I would definitely recommend Cheffin, LLC to friends and family. They are unique because they really put in so much effort to cater to all types of budgets while providing high quality food and service.

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Great experience with Chef Dorian for this business dinner. Food was beautifully prepared and very good. Unfortunately Chef arrived only 30 minutes before start of event. Should have been minimum of 1 hour in advance of start time. Hosts got very nervous as a result.
