I requested a special dinner for my family to celebrate my sister's upcoming remission from leukemia and my mom's support and love through it all. Kim reached out immediately and was warm and genuine. The dinner was lovely. Kim was great in the kitchen, and we all felt very relaxed and comfortable with her cooking for us, like she was a long time friend. Her menu has great options for a delicious four course meal, and she adds beautiful personal touches from place names to a print out menu. Kim even went the extra mile to provide special gluten-free options for myself. My family was so grateful for Kim. We are recommending her to more family and friends.

Kim came to our home to teach us three Thai dishes and it could not have gone better! She was professional, engaging, interesting, instructive and personal. She even stayed later than scheduled to complet the last meal. She brought everything and made it so easy on us. I will look forward to hiring her again.
