Everything about our meal with The Kitchen Door was perfect and could not possibly have been better. The planning was no-fuss and responsive to our guests' dietary needs. Everyone was wonderful to work with and unobtrusive. They brought everything they needed since we were in a rental house and the supplies were unknown. Most importantly, the food was incredible. Every single dish was delicious and cooked to perfection. I will definitely use The Kitchen Door again and highly recommend them.

Details: Regular meal • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • I'm flexible • Dessert • American - formal • Vegetarian or vegan • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

We had a fantastic dinner thanks to kitchen door! The food was beyond amazing and she was so kind and helpful, answering all sorts of questions, and even teaching and explaining the tricks and techniques she used. My group enjoyed every second, from before the beginning and hearing her explain and teach, until well past the desert where we all were in a food coma and she handled clean up. Overall lived the experience

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - formal • Italian • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • French • Asian • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I come from three generations of chefs. I am certified with the National Restaurant Association, The International Sommelier Guild and The Institute for Integrative Nutrition
