Chef Nirva came to the Poconos and provided my family and I with a wonderful experience. I didn’t realize how much time it would give me to connect with everyone by leaving things to a professional. I didn’t want to have to think about anything and chef Nirvas creativity made that possible. The menu options she provided were expansive, creative, and also seasonal. Everyone raved about the food, said it was worth the experience, and said they would absolutely do it again. She was also able to accommodate for a flax allergy and gluten sensitivity. I would highly recommend!

We hired Chef Nirva for a small wedding dinner (party of 12). We had cocktail hour, apps, main course and dessert. The food, flavors, sauces and presentation were AMAZING! We had a couple vegetarians and I was afraid they’d have bland options, but they loved her creations. I can’t say enough good things about Chef Nirva - her professionalism, her menu options won’t disappoint. She took the ordination extraordinary. I look forward to working with her again!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dinner • Dessert • I'm flexible • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I contacted Chef Nirva just two days before my event to prepare a dinner party for a family birthday. She was available, responsive and so easy to work with! She created a menu for 11 people within hours. We had a lovely, calm, and absolutely delicious meal! The duck ragu gnocchi was to die for!! Can't wait to have them back!!
