Chef Yaakov was amazing!!!! I give him 10 stars out of 5 stars! He was very professional and courteous. The menu he came up with was exactly what I was looking for, for our 50th birthday BBQ at our home. Chef came with everything he needed to cook, I just provided the dishes I wanted to use. He arrived early and after a quick Q&A about the home, etc. he was off and cooking. The food was absolutely DELICIOUS! Everyone was ranting and raving. They even took leftovers home. If you are thinking of booking a chef, look no further than this guy, Yaakov!!! I will definitely hire him again in the near future.

Yaakov was so amazing. He prepared a cooking party with his Sous Chef Galee for 20 of my friends. We made the most delicious pesto gnocchi, chicken piccata and black tea crème brulee. We were hands on and learned a lot from Chef. We plated family style and both went above and beyond to make the kitchen spotless after our party. Thank you again Chef Yaakov and your team for making a great experience for my friend’s birthday celebration

Chef Yaakov did an amazing job of bringing my vision to life. From the first messages we exchanged, Yaakov expressed a true sense of excitement for the cooking competition that I had envisioned. From that point, he continued to showcase his creativity by adding to the birthday party's theme his unbelievable true life experiences traveling and living around the world. This being said, the menu was also delicious and well thought-out, combining his varieties of culinary and cultural backgrounds to create a global experience. Throughout the process, Chef Yaakov and his sous chef Jeri were there to guide us whenever needed so that every meal was a true success. Overall, Chef Yaakov provides an exciting and flavor-driven experience that incomparable to the average chef!

Chef Yaakov and his Sous Chef Shannon were amazing in every aspect; punctuality, communication, presentation, and of course the food itself. Chef Yaakov took the time to set the table immaculately while he prepared the three course Kosher meal for eight people. Chef Yaakov made our holiday extra special by adding a level of personalization to the menus and desserts, adhering to strict Kosher dietary rules. Highly recommend and would use again.

Chef Yaakov helped me to plan a delicious children/adult menu for my son and our family. Taste and presentation of the dishes were amazing! My son and his friends thought the food was “perfect,” combining Israeli dishes with American dishes. We loved the falafel and the racks of lamb. My husband was practically licking the plate after his lamb and honey/garlic roasted eggplant. He was very friendly and engaging with all the kids as he prepared our dinner!

Dinner party - plated for 8 – Haifa, Israel - 2019 Chef Yaakov did a beautiful dinner for my mom's birthday and included my aspiring chef 8-year-old daughter in the preparation and cooking process. He was very knowledgeable and friendly, brought high quality ingredients, plated everything beautifully and created a very memorable experience. I can't recommend him enough. Fantastic.

Plated Meal – 16 people – Denver - 2020 I hired Chef Yaakov for a 16-person dinner for a bachelorette theme party. He was incredible to work with from the beginning and cooked up a creative and delicious meal that everyone loved. Throughout the process he was extremely responsive. He was very flexible and accommodating as I requested several rounds of menu changes. My group had a few dietary restrictions and he provided alternative courses for those people and worked with me to tweak the menu until it was perfect for our group. He showed up promptly, was super friendly, and the food was delicious! Everyone was impressed by every course and raved about the food and experience. You will not be disappointed with Chef Yaakov!

Chef Yaakov was fun and informative! His class kept me intrigued and entertained! His knowledge and experience in the food industry was apparent but his fun personality made the class enjoyable and memorable, especially the history behind what he was cooking. I can't wait to try again on my own! I would absolutely recommend his class.
