Custom Surf & Turf Creations Review Photo from Private Chef in Los Angeles
Heidi J. Heidi J.

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!

Chef David is fantastic. The meal was obviously great, but he was just a fun addition to the evening. He gave us concise explanations of each course and posed in photo op's! We'll be using him for our next event.

Booked the menu South American Kitchen Essentials with Chef David S. in Malibu

Chef David was funny, personable, and an excellent chef and teacher. The end result was the best ceviche and lomo saltado we have ever eaten. It was an evening we will remember forever.

Booked the menu South American Kitchen Essentials with Chef David S. in Malibu

Chef David’s class is an experience in tastes. He is so knowledgable about how various ingredients add to the final total flavor. We learned a lot from him, information we will bring home and try to incorporate into our own cooking. Plus he’s a very warm and friendly man. We enjoyed the entire experience with him!
