Chef Jared created and prepared a delicious meal for our 6th wedding anniversary! We rented a home in Gruene, TX and he came to us with all the groceries ready to go. He worked with us the week before to make sure we liked all the courses he customized as well. Jared is super friendly, has a great personality, and is an extremely talented chef with a superior culinary background. We absolutely plan to hire Jared again in the future. If you are looking for a special and unique experience, Chef Jared is the guy to call! Pictures below!

Awesome!!! We hired Jared for an in home dinning experience for my birthday celebration. We wanted to do something a little different this year (the theme of 2020) so my best friends and I decided to hire a chef! I'm so glad I found Jared. He was so easy to work with and when he entered my home on the day of the event it felt like a friend was coming over to make dinner. He made an amazing 3 course Asian style meal that was absolutely delicious. His food and his services were great, he checked on us throughout the meal, left my kitchen spotless and a kind thank you note. It was an experience I look forward to having again in the future with Chef Jared!
