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.

Chef Arielle went above and beyond for my mother’s special birthday dinner! She was excellent communicating throughout the last couple months prior to our dinner. She worked with me from start to finish to completely customize a special menu with items not even offered to create such a special and unique dining experience. She brought the most gorgeous flower arrangement and set the table perfectly with personal menus. She was so personable and friendly and engaged in conversation, she truly felt more like a friend we had known for years. “The best dinner I have ever had” was echoed throughout the room. The marinated skirt steak hors d’oeuvres are what dreams are made of. We will be talking about this dinner for years to come. Cant wait to book her again in the future!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • Dessert • Standard (basic ingredients) • Dessert • American - formal • 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.
