This Caribbean-themed meal pulls from full-of-flavor cuisines from the islands.

Let Chef Kymberly take you on a culinary adventure to the Caribbean islands in this private chef experience. You'll enjoy unique flavors with regional flair from the comfort of your location. Begin with steamed mussels with sweet-sour tamarind and fragrant basil. Next, enjoy a wilted greens salad with a cashew-ginger dressing. For the main dish, try the gently braised lamb shanks with mashed sweet potatoes and pan-fried cabbage on the side and for dessert, indulge in apple bundt cake with rich cider caramel.

We absolutely loved Chef Kym! The food was amazing and we had such a blast talking to her. We made sure to get her card to book her future classes in Manhattan and the two of us are already talking about hosting another event for a small group of our friends. 10/10 experience.

Kymberly was most accommodating to me— the only vegetarian in our party that night. She has a lovely manner and cooks with a wide smile!!

Chef Kym was funny, warm, and made us feel like we were hanging out with an old friend the whole night. Not to mention that she makes the best shrimp I’ve ever had. Fantastic experience and would recommend for anybody looking for a fun date night or just great homemade food :)

Chef Kymberly was phenomenal. She is incredibly knowledgeable about her craft and did a thorough job explaining the cooking process. We had such a great time having Kymberly over for valentines day that we invited her to come back 4 days later to celebrate a friends birthday with us. All of the dishes she prepared were delicious and the menus was thoughtfully crafted.

Food was delicious. A fantastic blend of sweet and savory with a wonderful kick to each dish. Kymberly was very easy to talk to and a whiz in the kitchen. One point for improvement would have been a discussion about the African culture as it relates to the food, and possibly a more hands-on experience.

Absolutely loved having Chef Kymberly teach us how to cook West African dishes! It was so much fun, she has such great energy and is super knowledgeable. The food was DELICIOUS. I surprised my girlfriend with this experience for her 30th birthday and it was one of the best gifts I've ever given her. Big thank you to Chef for such a great time!

Chef Kim brought great energy and fantastic food into our home! I booked this as a birthday present to my mother & it was one of the best presents I have gotten her. Chef Kim is very knowledgeable and fun to be around. I have been thinking about the potato appetizer we made for weeks.

Chef Kym came with the fire. She was very professional, prepared, personable, and knowledgeable. I love the intentionality and thought put into the entire meal. Every ingredient had a purpose. She’s definitely living her purpose because the energy in my house after was even more positive and lifted. I’m definitely going to ask for her service again.

Chef Kymberly prepared an absolutely delicious meal that was (for me) a totally new culinary experience! In addition, she was extremely friendly and was happy to answer our many questions about cajun cooking. I would happily recommend Chef Kym as well as this particular menu, especially for people who are looking for something that would otherwise be hard to find in the Bay Area.
