Chef Arielle was amazing. She cooked dinner for us in Hamptons Bay while we were here celebrating my bachelorette weekend. I could go on all day. Sadly I don’t have pictures of the amazing food because we were salivating at the mere presentation of the dishes and we dove right in. Each dish was beautiful. Perfectly cooked, deliciously flavorful, while at the same time tasting light and healthy. She had such great energy and was very down to earth. While we were in the Hamptons we are very down to earth people and Chef Arielle felt like one of us immediately. She was extremely professional (despite my attempts to get her to tell me some crazy stories about some of the clients she’s had) and was just all around wonderful. Thank you so much for a fantastic and memorable evening!

I hired Chef Arielle for a brunch for my bridesmaids and it was perfection! The food was absolutely delicious and so fresh, her display of the food and all the antique silver platters were so cute my girls kept complementing the displays and were so impressed by the quality of the dishes. I didn’t have a single worry, she was punctual, and immediately got to work, left the kitchen cleaner than she found it and the whole event went perfectly smooth. Not to mention she’s a lovely human herself and very friendly and kind. I would and plan to hire her again for my next function. 10 out of 10!!!
