Lloyd C.

Personal Chef

We planned a 70th birthday week long getaway for my wife Marjorie her children from New York and friends from Miami here in Raleigh. To top it off we scheduled a dinner for everyone to celebrate. While checking Thumbtack, found a lovely website " Zacki's Culinary Creations " Zacki and her assistant Gigi came on the date and at the appointed time. We had picked from a myriad of menu options a meal that gave everyone what they loved. Zacki and GiGi prepared everything to perfection ! Pre dinner drinks, appetizers, and a wonderful meal, and afterward a fantastic,made from scratch, chocolate desert. Zacki and GiGi were delightful, professional, and fun. They felt like family too by the time it was over. We all felt we received much more than a birthday dinner. It will remain an Event we'll remember for a lifetime.
Zacki's Culinary Creations's reply
Ahhhhh, Thank you Dear Lloyd. We will be talking about this wonderful "Cook In Your Nook" for a long time...and "How you made GiGi and I feel" as part of the family!

Although my event was canceled chef Zacki was extremely responsive and prompt. She was willing to go the extra mile to make my catering personalized and ensure we had what we needed even last minute. I sincerely appreciate the attention you gave me. Thank you!!

Zacki was very responsive throughout the whole planning process of my dinner party. She had lots of good suggestions that I incorporated in my event. Her assistant Gigi was also pleasant to work with. They arrived on time, worked hard and left my kitchen in the same condition as when they got there. I would definitely recommend Zacki's Culinary Creations for your next special occasion.

Wedding and Event Catering

Well chosen ingredients for demanding outdoor condition. Plates were beautifully set up with fine details with magnolia leaves and violets. Tasty dips, fresh veggies, rich chololate, and a wonderful strawberry cake as a surprise dessert for us. Zacki has a special eye for details. We are very happy with her service and would recommend her to anyone.
Zacki's Culinary Creations's reply
Was delighted to have helped make this special day a success, especially under the current circumstances. Thank you for the kind review.
