Chef Michele made my husband’s birthday (private dinner) a phenomenal experience. He guided me through the menu creation process and the evening was so seamless that you would swear he also was a party planner. The food was delicious, presented beautifully, and unique. He even entertained my nosey toddlers who were desperate to “help”. At the end of the night, Chef Michele felt more like family than a hired chef, which is exactly the vibe we were looking for. I would highly recommend this chef.

Chef Michele is as authentic as it comes! My wife and I hired him to do dinner for two on Valentine’s Day. Chef Michele walked us through some of the best tasting Italian food ever. He even threw in some Italian limoncello after dinner for desert! 10/10 would hire again 👨🏼‍🍳

Chef Michele was absolutely fantastic! We hired him for our New Years Eve dinner party, where he created and served a four course Italian dinner. The food was delicious and inventive. He made the whole process incredibly easy and stress free - from providing menu options, bringing all the tableware, arriving and serving on time, to meticulously cleaning up afterwards. I highly recommend Chef Michele!

Michele was fantastic to work with. He happily worked within my limited budget and proposed many alternatives; showed up early and set a beautiful table; served drinks; and produced delicious and classic Italian food. The reception was a great success, thanks to Michele. My art gallery-hostess took many of his cards, and I will be working with him in the future. Thank you so much, Michele.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Standard (basic ingredients) • Cold beverages (non-alcoholic) • Cold beverages (alcoholic) • Italian • I'm flexible • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Michele came to my home and taught my family a private class on pastry. He was personable and funny and the food came out great. It was a blast.
