Chef MoJo was fantastic. He came a little bit before time and set up everything with beautiful flowers. He served food right on time and even packed up the extra food into tupperware to be saved for leftovers. He cleaned the kitchen wonderfully and even collected all of the trash that he generated and put it in a separate bag to be taken out. He was very professional and it was super easy to book and customize the menu. My parents absolutely loved the blend of cuisines for their 28th anniversary. Thank you, Chef MoJo! We hope to hire you again for another group event soon!
