We had a wonderful dinner prepared by Drea! Every single dish looked and tasted amazing and was cooked perfectly. A really hard thing to do by yourself, cooking multiple dishes for a lot of people. Our group loves to eat and has had plenty of fine dining experiences and has eaten all over the world, and we would gladly dine with her again. She was so great to work with from the first time we messaged to her final clean up at the end. She arrived on time, diligently prepared the meal and met our desired service time, and worked effortlessly in the kitchen, needing very little from us even though it was an unfamiliar environment. She was super meticulous in the clean up too, doing a far better job than we ever would. We’re so happy to have met her and look forward to hiring her again in the future!

I had a private dinner catered for my birthday with Chef Drea. She was attentive to detail and incorporated all my dietary preferences and requests into the menu. It was beautifully executed and everything was soooo yummy!!!! I highly recommend her for intimate occasions and dinner parties.

I was so pleased with Chef Drea. Her food was simply amazing, and my family was completely blown away! She was always available to answer questions or accommodate any menu changes. Her sweet potato gnocchi was to die for along with everything else. She was on time, and cleaned everything up. Her helper Christian was an amazing young man. I highly recommend Chef Drea for any dinner party. You won't be disappointed.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing varies by the size of the event, menu choices, and location. A private dinner for 2 will start at $250+ per guest. An event from 3-5 guests will start at $200+ per guest. Parties with 6-10 guests will start at $150+ per guest. Meal prep starts at $350 + groceries for 3 unique meals with 3-6 portions of each. With one week of meal prepping, you'll receive 6-24 portions depending on your package. Private cooking classes start at $100 per student. They will be held in your home or vacation rental.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We will schedule a call to chat about what you're looking for with your event, I'll write a menu proposal with options for you to choose from and you'll make a deposit to secure your date.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have worked in restaurants since I was a child. I've learned a lot and now I pass that knowledge on to my students. I did go to culinary school and I've worked in 4 diamond hotels and fine dining restaurants.
