Treated hubby to a surprise chef prepared private dining experience right at home for our 1st anniversary. Chef Brian walked into our space and THREW IT DOWN! We started off with a bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer, followed by a spring mix salad with lemon vinaigrette dressing. The main was a red wine soaked braised short rib over a bed of garlic parmesan risotto with a side of bourbon honey glazed carrots. We topped everything off with the best crusted apple tart south of the Mason-Dixon Line!

Brian was AWESOMEEEEE!!!!! He was very punctual and patient with me, since it was my first time working with a private chef. My wife’s birthday dinner was a success because of him!! He also had AMAZINGGGG food that exceeded my expectations! The pictures don’t do justice at all, once you book him then you will totally understand! He is the best!!!
