Chef Jamie was fantastic. He was very responsive throughout the entire booking process, and he was friendly and extremely capable on the day of my event. The food was great and the vibes were exactly what we were looking for. He provided lunch and dinner for an event of ~25 people, and everyone gave rave reviews. I even had multiple people coming up to me asking for his contact info for future events of their own!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 21 - 35 guests • Lunch • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Barbecue • Asian • Italian • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Unfortunately, did not get any photos of the event. Chef Jaime did an awesome job for 20 men on our cousins bachelor party. He was very responsive, showed up on time, and cooked an awesome meal. I certainly recommend the BBQ Pulled Pork, Smoked Gouda Mac N' Cheese, and Elote Corn. Thanks Chef Jaime!
