Chef Blake came to our house and made a wonderful meal for us. Multiple appetizers, 3-course meal, everything was excellent. He was friendly and we recommend.

We had an intimate wedding and a reception dinner at home. We changed the menu with a week's notice due to dietary changes and Chef Blake worked with us no problem. The food was DELISH! I am so so so pleased with the experience.

We had the pleasure of the owner being our chef for my birthday! There was nothing he served that we did not enjoy. When it was all done, he packed up our leftovers and cleaned the kitchen! If I could give 10 stars I would!

Questions? We've Got Answers

“Isn't a private chef expensive?”

Often less than a night out for the same group once you count drinks, tax, and tip — with zero cooking or cleanup. You get an all-in quote up front, no surprises.

“Is my kitchen big enough?”

Almost certainly. We bring our own tools and prep on-site; a standard stove and counter space is all we need. No kitchen at your venue? We bring portable equipment.

“What about allergies & diets?”

Every menu is custom. Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, vegan, halal and more are no problem — just tell us when we build your menu.

“Who cleans up?”

We do. Complete setup and full cleanup are included every time. You wake up to a clean kitchen.
