Introduction

She was responsive and professional and friendly on top of being a great chef 😃

I would hire Abby again in a heartbeat! I hired her to provide appetizers and to bartend at a 60-70 person birthday party I threw for my partner last weekend in Jamestown, RI. I received raves about the food she provided and she was highly competent and personable as a bartender. She is an excellent chef and bartender! Thank you Abby for doing such a great job at our party!

Could not have more positive things to say about Abby! Our 4 course meal for a bachelorette party of 11 was absolutely perfect. Abby was extremely responsive and easy to work with during the planning process. She helped us curate a fantastic menu that everyone would enjoy. Abby was very timely the evening of our dinner and proved to be even easier to work with in person! We did not have to lift a finger. The food was absolutely delicious and enjoyed by everyone. Would definitely hire Abby again for future events!
