Introduction: I wear many hats, whether it be for customers who want food made in their home or delivered or catering services, I do it all. Paying attention to detail is important to me and I usually go above and beyond and add in extras for free (like food display cards). Unlike some, I have no hidden costs in my quotes. There will be no surprise fee. In addition to being a private chef, I am also a professional organizer. I love a clean, tidy, minimal home with smart organization and storage even for the smallest of spaces. I am non judgmental, easy going and efficient. I will take your project to another level! For larger project, I usually do a free consultation and give you an honest answer for how much servics and purchased products for organizing will cost. I love doing these jobs, please consider me for turning your space around!

Nichole's service was a terrific cater selection for our family's birthday celebration/ gathering. The food was delicious, items were a nice variety, and all felt like the perfect amount from a variety standpoint. Nichole stepped in and "joined the party" with an approachable personality. She took over the kitchen comfortably, which achieved one of the main purposes for hiring her catering support altogether! We'd be more than happy to reach out for her services again. The only drawback: the main meat menu item was rather dull tasting. Overall, we highly recommend Island Chef.

Nichole put together a delicious birthday brunch menu for me and 5 of my girlfriends. The dishes she prepared were creative and fresh. For example the Mediterranean Cucumber Cups were a perfect appetizer, and the Mini Spinach & Feta Frittatas were a hit. Nichole also made a Chocolate Guinness Cake with Coconut Frosting that was a big hit at my party! She arrived on time and took care of the clean-up after everything was done. She's very detail-oriented and organized. Everything was perfect! I highly recommend Nichole to anyone who considers hiring a private chef for their event.

I've been fortunate enough, to have eaten at several events catered by Nichole's Island Chef Services, and have been really impressed by the quality of the food and attention to detail. Everything was healthy, wholesome and tasted delicious. Highly recommended!
