I hired Chef Tristan to do a sit-down dinner for 10 at my apartment. The occasion was a birthday party for my partner, who is a foodie and notoriously picky about how a meal should look, be served and taste. Even for him, Chef Tristan exceeded expectations. For me, it's the first at-home dinner party where I actually spent time with my guests, not in the kitchen or loading the dishwasher. So, treat yourself and have Chef Tristan take care of your next party--and sit back and bask in the accolades.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • The personal chef travels to me

Chef Tristan was WONDERFUL to work with during my sorority's 10 year celebration. He made a beautiful meal for our group and worked with a limited kitchen area to make everything happen. Our guests loved the food, especially the chicken marsala. Highly recommend Chef Tristan for his professionalism and quality.
