About
My passion for cooking had started from childhood, inherited from my Russian Moroccan parents, who are also in the culinary arts. Since then many years have passed but my passion of cooking stayed the same. I have gained experience working in some of the top restaurants in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and currently New York City.

Chef David's skills are over-the-top delicious! Working with him was easy, and the menu we came up with was outstanding. The end result? Passover Seder's dinner was divine. From the pre-Seder buffet, to the main meal's service, my fifteen hungry guests were treated to a culinary work of art. Never-to-be-forgotten Eggplant Salad (so delicious); a feast-for-the-eye Beet Salad (mouthwatering); traditional Chopped Liver with a twist of texture (yum!); and the delectable surprise of Matzah Mina! Oh what a treasure that was. Gefilte Fish was sweet, smooth as silk, and every guest opted for seconds! And don't let me forget the stunning entrees of Short Ribs, the Beef Brisket, the Savory Stuffed Chickens. And a rich Onion Kugel that brought the house down with oooohs and aaaaahs of "this is SO good!!" The desserts were testimony to Chef David's genius of Passover creations: Flourless chocolate cake with molten center is now sealed in my memory forever. I heartily encourage you to engage Chef David for your next truly unforgettable catered affair. He is the best!!!

We hired David for my wife's birthday celebration. It was a dinner party for 17 people. The menu was decided well in advance. David provided us a list of possible entrees, appetizers, and desserts for us to choose. He also provide us a website to order glasses, plates, cutlery, napkins, table clothes, etc. He arrived promptly with three other helpers. The food was terrific and his staff were very professional and courteous. Our kitchen was left spotless. We would hire David again for future celebrations!

From the first moment I reached out to Chef David I felt at ease. To start he was very responsive, very accommodating, we set a date and time, we selected our menu and we paid deposit.
Day of my wife’s birthday (who just gave birth 3 weeks ago) he showed up on time, walked into the kitchen as if he has been in our home 18 times, found everything he needed to find and got to work asap. We were ready on time and so was he. Everything he cooked in our kitchen was delicious, we enjoyed every dish!
Chef David was friendly, approachable accommodating. He brought his own dishes to serve us with which was great. He washed everything he used, he cleaned the kitchen stove and the kitchen counters. Absolutely spotless event and very enjoyable not having to go out and be spoiled like dining in a Michelin star restaurant in our own home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Thank you Chef David

For my daughter's birthday, now that she has a three-month old and it's hard to go out, I hired Chef David Feldman to prepare a birthday feast for her, her husband and two friends. It could not have worked out better!!! Chef Feldman offered a choice of menus -- when they learned he was Israeli, she wisely picked a Middle Eastern menu. They tell me that the Chef brought all of the ingredients to make sauces and seasonings himself -- all were fresh from his special sources. They are still raving about how delicious every course was!!! And they loved spending time with Chef Feldman -- great personality and presentation. They relaxed in the family room while Chef Feldman served amazing eggplant appetizers; they then moved to the literally never used formal dining room and broke out the good China for the first time since they were married! The Chef served lamb as the main course -- perfectly seasoned and cooked. Dessert was fantastic. And Chef Feldman cleaned up and put away everything while my daughter and company relaxed and brought out the baby!!
I can't wait for another chance to work with Chef Feldman! He made this such a perfect birthday present for my family!!!
