Abe was all around amazing! We asked for an unforgettable dinner for our friend getting married and he delivered! The food was delicious, he handled everything from start to finish and he was punctual. Highly recommend Abe for all your home chef needs!

I Just want to say that Abe and his wife went over and beyond for my fiance suprise birthday dinner! From the time they walked through the door until the time they left they made the whole experience special! The food was a 10 across the board! They love to interact with you so its almost like their family! Over all hands down best experience ever! I definitely found me a new personalchef! Thanks Abe

I booked Abe as a private chef for a bachelorette party I attended outside of Raleigh and it was the best possible experience. Abe and his wife cooked 4 courses for 5 girls and not one of them was lacking in any category. Truth be told, I think my only complaint was that the empanadas (and pink sauce) were so good that I ate too many before the main course started. Abe was a punctual, responsive and highly professional chef. I felt that we were getting a 5 star dinner within the comfort of our rented house. Each course was made with fresh ingredients and Abe was able to modify some of the dishes on the spot to accommodate a few girl's preferences. I found him to be an engaging and friendly host and feel extremely lucky to have booked him on a whim.
I should note that we also had the pleasure of his wife joining him- she was the mastermind behind one of the best flans I have ever had.
Details: Brunch / dinner party • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Dessert • Standard (basic ingredients) • Dessert • Italian • Mexican / Latin American • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Abraham and Bianca came to cook us something special for our 12th year anniversary. He showed up on time, made a full course meaning including appetizers, main entre and dessert. He cleaned the kitchen, put everything in Tupperware and served us wine during the meal. It was fantastic. I highly recommend
