What guests loved about their private chef experience in Pasadena
Heidi J.
Booked the menu Custom Surf & Turf Creations with Chef David S. in Los Angeles (Palms)
Chef David came to cook us Thanksmas! The Surf & Turf meal he prepared was divine! The crab cakes moist and flavorful, the tenderloin cooked to perfection, the flourless chocolate cake simply decadent. Not only was dinner a highlight, Chef David himself is a joy to be around. You can feel how much he enjoys sharing his gift of cooking with the people he serves. Thanks for making our holiday celebration extra special!
Anna B.
Booked the menu French-Inspired Romantic Dinner with Chef Mo in Los Angeles (Mount Washington)

Brett B.
Booked the menu Custom Surf & Turf Creations with Chef David S. in Pasadena
David was great. Excellent food and a good guy to have around
Rafael Q.
Booked the menu Vibrant Latin Flavors with Chef Jasmin in Beverly Hills
We had an incredible experience with Chef Jasmine. She arrived looking professional in a very nice chef's uniform and came fully prepared with everything she needed—including her own serving ware—which made the whole process completely hands-off for us. From the moment she stepped into the kitchen, she took charge with ease and confidence. The food was absolutely delicious, with multiple generous courses and a lovely dessert that rounded out the meal perfectly. Beyond her culinary skills, she brought a fun, energetic spirit to the evening and was incredibly polite and engaging. After the meal, she even took care of cleanup and loaded the dishwasher—truly above and beyond. She's more than just a chef; she’s like a personal food guru. Highly recommend!
