Chris has been doing private cheffing for well over a decade( before it was cool) I was lucky…read moreenough to be on Chris's Podcast where he speaks to others who do the same thing a few years back and in our continued professional/personal relationship was able to bring Chris up to New Jersey for a dinner. Now you are probably thinking "that's weird you know this person outside of their business" and that's somewhat true though it's more of as a competitor though located far enough away our tribes don't clash so it's a alliance almost. Anyway the reason I felt compelled enough to leave this review was working on this event I feel like I hired Chris and got to be on the other end of things. And in that awesome almost out of body experience I wanted to leave a review for Chris due to his dedication and professionalism that he displayed in partaking in this event. He cooked 4 excellent courses and outshone me as a host with his guest interaction and knowledge of the dishes he prepared. Chris is a champion to all private chefs and I just wanted to leave this review, if you have never hired someone to cook for you and are in the DMV area (I think that's what they call Maryland/DC/ lower Pa) you should reach out to Chris!

The crab cakes were so delicious along with the sauce. It had barely any filler with large lumps of crabmeat. This was my favorite. The pork chops were perfectly cooked and were so tasty and tender! That was a favorite for a couple. The salad was so yummy with a lot of great flavors that came together beautifully. Our salmon was the entree which had a beautiful glaze and a nice crisp on the edges. Our apple crisp dessert was a perfect ending to our delectable meal. Honestly, it was perfect and nothing I would change. She was also such a pleasure and cleaned up EVERYTHING! You can't go wrong with her! I have had other private chefs and she has been the best so far!

The food is farm to table and always arrive in neatly packaged containers every Sunday evening so we have dinners stocked to enjoy the following week. I have had meal services with others before and this is by far the most skilled cooking of farm to table meals. I think it's a good value. One recent review I read was really not fair about "scam". That's just not true but I understand the frustration that led to a misunderstanding. I know the owner/chef was busy and working to try improve their marketing, ordering app, and communications. It's a small business so you just have to contact her directly if there is an issue and she will take care of it. I did that every time and I was patient because I want this good cooking to last to feed my family. Seems like great people. I've spoken to her and met the staff who deliver food to my house. We look forward to ordering each week!

This business owner is a scammer! Don't be deceived by the older reviews left for the past owner of…read morethis business. The new owner is a scam artist! I made a mistake of signing up for 4 weeks of meal delivery, and now I am out of hundreds of dollars. The first delivery was 2 days late and required multiple attempts to contact the merchant to get the ordered meals. Week 2 meals were delivered but be aware, if you happen to be in the shower when they show up with your delivery, they won't leave your meals on your secure porch and will just drive away with your order. Week 3- NO DELIVERY, NO CALL, NO EMAIL. Again, I had too contact the merchant to try to figure out where was my food. Days later got a response that they had an issue with their refrigerator and simply neglected to let me know!!! With over a thousand dollars already tied up with this merchant, I had to scramble to purchase food for my family elsewhere. Due to the "NO CALL NO SHOW" for the week 3 delivery, I politely asked the chef to immediately refund me for the remaining 2 weeks worth of food that wasn't delivered. I explained that because they failed to honor their contract, I had to make other arrangements for the meals. The merchant NEVER REFUNDED me for the remaining 2 WEEKS worth of food that they NEVER DELIVEREDA. I ended up having to contact my credit card company, and guess what? The merchant is lying to my credit card company, claiming they delivered all 4 weeks worth of meals! I am reaching out to the Office of the Attorney General and filing a fraud complaint next. Stay as far away from this thief as you can!

We sat back, enjoyed some wine, and it was like they weren't even there--except we quickly started smelling the most delicious aromas wafting from the kitchen. We enjoyed bacon wrapped dates and arepas to start. Then dinner was a mixed green salad with fresh strawberries and goat cheese and a huge bowl of seafood paella to share (topped with her secret green sauce). We had more than enough food for the 8 of us, and enjoyed leftovers for the rest of the night long after Chef Loly had left. She cleaned up as well; the kitchen was spotless. Cannot say enough good things about Chef Loly. So professional and responsive (key when you're planning an event). The food was DELICIOUS!
