I couldn’t be more happy to have had Chef Arielle at my event. From prep to set up to clean up and everything in between, she was an absolute delight with my group - nothing short of magic. And on TOP of that the food was absolutely spectacular! She was kind enough to adapt the menu to the dietary requests of several group members and ensured throughout the meal that everything was up to standard. I can’t wait to work with her again soon!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - formal • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • Asian • French • Dairy intolerant • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I hired Chef Arielle for a brunch for my bridesmaids and it was perfection! The food was absolutely delicious and so fresh, her display of the food and all the antique silver platters were so cute my girls kept complementing the displays and were so impressed by the quality of the dishes. I didn’t have a single worry, she was punctual, and immediately got to work, left the kitchen cleaner than she found it and the whole event went perfectly smooth. Not to mention she’s a lovely human herself and very friendly and kind. I would and plan to hire her again for my next function. 10 out of 10!!!

Details: Brunch / dinner party • 6 - 10 guests • Breakfast / brunch • Lunch • Premium (high end ingredients) • French • American - formal • American - casual • Southern • Vegetarian or vegan • Gluten free or celiac • Nut allergies • I'm flexible • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Chef Arielle was absolutely fantastic! We had a bachelorette party of 17 people, with a gluten free bride-to-be, and Chef Arielle knocked it out of the park. She was very communicative throughout the whole process, helped us navigate through the many menu options she provided and was even able to work with us to get the bride her absolute favorite appetizer - crab cakes - in gluten free form! The food was delicious and the bride-to-be could not stop talking about it to anyone who would listen for the next week. The ladies at the party have now decided they will need Chef Arielle at all their events! I cannot recommend her enough for your next party or gathering - no matter how big or small. You WILL NOT be disappointed!

Details: Dinner party • Dinner • Italian • Mexican or Latin American • Plated meal • Yes, full service • Home • Yes, full kitchen • Fewer than 20 guests • Serving and warming equipment • Standard (basic ingredients)
