Chef Matt took care of the our holiday party this year with a fabulous sit down dinner for 10. The food was awesome and my guests felt very special having a professional chef cooking for us. Thanks you Chef Matt.

Chef Matt put together a private dinner event for my family and did a phenomenal job. The food - great flavors and healthy. Tropical Gazpacho was outstanding - I love gazpacho and it was the best one I've ever head. Matt was the best private chef we've hired - he took the time to understand our likes and dislikes and then served a meal that exceeded our expectations. Multiple small plates - everything very flavorful and fresh. Matt was very professional - flexible and punctual. We will definitely be hiring Matt again!

We recently hired Matt to cook/prep meals for our family. We are a family of 5, with 2 working parents, and time is of the essence. Matt came to the house last week, and not only did the house smell wonderful, we had the best meals. We had ready to eat, along with prepped veggies for the grill. We grill out often, and to shave 30 miin off the prep, is amazing. We could enjoy more time with the kids. To all you busy, working families, you must hire Matt! We'll have him back as soon as the food runs out...probably in 2 weeks!

We hired Chef Matt for a private party for 12. This was the first time we have done something like this and we will definitely do it again. Matt was easy to talk to and fit right in with the group. The food was delicious and my kitchen was all cleaned up when he left for the night.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For my personal chef services : Cookdates--$275.00 plus groceries---usually 30-45 meals every 3-4 weeks.I can do weekly cookdates with clients signing on for 6month contracts. I work with my clients to customize menus to meet various pricing requests.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I had a family that was very food minded....I was catering with my dad as an adolescent and our first family restaurant at 15. I went to the CIA out of high school and have since spent my life working in all facets of the restaurant business. Mostly I just love to cook for friends and clients alike...good fresh food is meant to be shared and has the ability to make an impact in our daily lives. I strive to fill that role for my clients.
