- [ ] Chef DaShawn helped to execute a wonderful 3 course, plated dinner for 19 people. He was professional. The food was delicious and he was careful to exclude all known allergies. Chef came prepared and was immediately comfortable in the kitchen to cook, plate and clean up. I didn’t have to worry about a thing and would definitely use him again. Thank you for helping to make a memorable evening!

After coming up with a fantastic, varied menu, Dashawn was prompt and communicated throughout the night when neccessary. He prepared stunning cold appetizers, and the entrees (roasted duck breast, sea scallops and chicken) were absolutely delicious. Left my kitchen spotless. Highly recommended!
