Chef Jen was quick to respond to my unique request. I wanted a personal chef experience for my elementary school teachers to show our appreciation for that they do. Chef Jen was able to create a sumptuous menu that allowed each teacher to have their choice of food prepared by Chef Jen in a time limit of 1/2 hour for each of 3 lunches. All the food was prepped before she arrived. She cooked an individual, delicious omelette for each teacher on request. Teachers were very impressed with the variety of items prepared for the brunch. The waffles were a big hit as well as the fried chicken. The presentation was beautiful. Chef Jen brought all the supplies to make this experience first class. Her personality shown through with how she interacted with each of our teachers. She was prompt with the clean up. I believe she left the kitchen in better shape than we she arrived. I would not hesitate to hire for any occasion.

Details: Regular meal • 21 - 35 guests • Lunch • I'm flexible • Dessert • Mexican / Latin American • Southern • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Asian • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I can’t say enough good things about Chef Jen! She came to my house and cooked for me and 4 of my friends that were visiting from out of town for my bachelorette weekend. She was super professional and easy to work with when we were picking out a menu. She was also very flexible about accommodating any dietary restrictions! We had bruschetta to start, caprese stuffed chicken for the main course, sweet potato gnocchi for the vegetarian main course, and tiramisu for dessert. Everything was SO good. A million times better than any restaurant we could have gone to! My friends are still raving about the food! The presentation was also really pretty. She also packed up leftovers for us that made for the perfect midnight snack! 😊 Not only was the food amazing, everyone loved hanging out with Chef Jen! She is so personable and fun to be around! The price was very reasonable and she left my kitchen so clean! If you’re thinking about hiring a chef for your event, you won’t regret hiring Chef Jen! I can’t wait to hire her for future events. She would be so perfect for bridal showers, baby showers, wedding celebrations, birthday dinners, etc.!

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • Italian • Southern • American - formal • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I contacted Chef Jenn to celebrate my husband’s 30th birthday. She was very responsive and helpful every step of the way. After agreeing on the menù she provided all the details of the service. When she came over to cook for us and our friends she was amazing! The food was perfect, she explained the menù to the guests and she answered all the questions they had. She worked around us and provided the best meal ever! All our guests were impressed and we just really loved the experience and the Chef! Highly recommended!!!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I’m happy as a business owner to work with Lin budgets , I don’t include tips as this is preferred at final payment but never expected. As it should be left to the consumers as an appreciating gesture of gratitude.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I’ll ask about allergies and intolerances then build menus custom for all my clients ensuring to cost the menu asap to accommodate and allow for deposits to be paid in time prior to the event. We exchange messages or emails and work diligently to keep open lines of communication with my clients.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
A.S in Culinary Arts
