WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE PERSONAL CHEF EXPERIENCES in Jacksonville
Already tipped in person. Price of the meal was pretty high on its own.
Bought this as a gift for my parents. They loved the food and said Chef Kelsie was really nice! However, we were all a bit disappointed that the food was served all at once, rather than individual courses like we expected from the description, which would have made it more of an experience. Also, she used our kitchen utensils/pots/etc, which is not a problem but surprised us. The main issue we had is that she left some dishes unwashed, and my parents then had to wash them at the end (not what you want when you pay this much!). Many things differed from the description here on Cozymeal, so double check timing with her.
Chef Kelsie was so nice but because the instructions were not clear from cozy meal (so not her fault) we ate at 9 pm instead of 6:30.
Additionally - the food lacked seasoning and the steak was a very fatty cut of meat.
