Omg the best work I have ever gotten done! I booked Chef Keyana very last minute(2-3 days before the event) and she just went above and beyond to make sure I have the best food on the table! She gave me creative ideas and suggested I keep a grazing table (and boy, was that a hit!!) it was all so elegant and most delicious and fresh!! She even played with my daughter who was the birthday girl and involved her in setting up the table that she felt precious! I would definitely recommend her service! Will definitely be my top choice for my next event!

Details: Birthday or anniversary party • Cocktail hour or hors d'oeuvres • Italian • Buffet • No, drop off only • Home • Yes, full kitchen • 20 - 29 guests • I'm flexible

Chef Keyana was a total delight! She very quickly understood my needs and suggested the perfect menu. She respectfully took over my kitchen and managed all the needs for my guests at my dinner party beautifully. The quality and taste of her food was outstanding- I’d describe it as elevated while appealing to everyone. She is the perfect combination of an accomplished chef with a warm and sparkling personality- sure to create a memorable experience. Highly recommend!

Working with Chef Keyana in the kitchen was an unforgettable experience! As a former corporate tax attorney turned chef, her passion and dedication to her craft are truly inspiring. Her California cuisine is elevated with unique, bold flavors influenced by her Persian heritage, creating a dining experience that's both innovative and comforting. The dishes are not only beautifully presented but also bursting with fresh, local ingredients that showcase her skill and creativity.
