Chef Ricardo was amazing. He catered the meal to our individual preferences. Even my very picky sister-in-law was pleased. He was very detail-oriented, and dinner was an experience. The ingredients were fresh, and the steak so tender that we could cut it with a butter knife.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Dessert • Standard (basic ingredients) • Dessert • American - casual • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Ricardo prepared a fabulous dinner in home for my wife and I for our anniversary. He arrived on schedule and was ready to work. The presentation of the 4 course meal was phenomenal. He explained every item and the ingredients that were used for dish. Chef Ricardo made sure we had a memorable experience and that all our expectations were met. I can’t wait to reserve him in the future for other occasions. Great Job!

Chef Ricardo is hands down the best cook you will come across. My wife and I loved how he took time to explain his cuisines and let us in on a little of his professional past to show us his experience. My wife and I literally cleaned the plates of each dish he served us. We will definitely be in contact with him in the near future. Thank you Chef Ricardo
