Hired on Thumbtack

Chef Maria went above and beyond to cater my event. I organized an event in a city I didn't know well, and Chef Maria took care of all of my food and beverage needs. My guests complimented the food and had plenty to eat.

Details: Office coordinator • Corporate event • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Cold beverages (non-alcoholic) • American - casual • Mexican / Latin American • Small bites • Only drop off is necessary • Office • Yes - partial kitchen (refrigerator and sink only) • 21 - 30 guests • Disposable plates, utensils, and cups • Paper napkins • Standard (basic ingredients)

Maria did a great job catering my 30th birthday brunch for 12 people! The food she cooked was delicious -- in particular her scrambled eggs and pancakes and turkey sausage were awesome -- and the presentation was nice. She also worked very efficiently in my relatively small NYC kitchen and cleaned up after she was done. The one thing I would say is there was just enough food for everyone, so if you want anyone to be able to have seconds, account for an extra 5-7 people in your request. But this wasn't anything Maria did--she cooked a perfect amount of food, and for a great value! I will definitely hire her again for future occasions. Thank you Maria!!

WOW!!!! I hired Chef Maria for my event this weekend and got so much more than i expected. Chef Maria offered us a soft sampling a few days prior to the event to ensure we were pleased with the menu selected, I WAS BLOWN AWAY!!! Then the day of the event she came 30 minutes early to help set up (btw amazing eye for detail), which was great because it was only me and my best friend and it was a lot of work. Anyway, i leave to get ready and when i return i am knocked off my feet!! The place is so vibrant and the food fragrance was amazing. As my guest arrived they too were in awe. As the party progressed it got even better. Chef Maria was interactive with my guest she didn't just stand there and mechanically hand out meals, she carried light conversation, she even had a cocktail centerpiece included in her package that was just a delight to watch be served. I wish i could post pictures here!! Hands down this Chef was the best experience i've had in a while(and get this she's like soooo young), HIRE HER you can thank me later lol! Ali'Cea

Chef Maria is both really responsible and responsive. We had a great communication and understanding on what we were looking for and needed. She showed up on the event on time, and kept putting things together the moment she got here. Her food was unique and amazing, some of the them were all grabbed by everyone before I even see what they looked like! I am really glad that I found her and I am working with her again for all my ongoing events, and would recommend her to anyone.

Chef Maria was fantastic. We hired her at the very last minute, and she still provided exactly what we wanted for a 30 person party. All of the ingredients were of the highest quality, and her preparation and cooking were great! I would highly recommend her services.
