Went to NOLA and Chef Gason sure did bring in the culture. His gumbo and redfish were on point. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

Chef Gason & Charlie prepared an amazing New Orlean meal for me & 4 girlfriends in town for 4th of July weekend. We celebrated my friend's 50th Birthday & made our dining experience super special. Thanks so much Chef. Monique read more

I'm from California and have high expectations on food quality, ingredients used, and technique. My friends had a party of 9 and we came for someone's 40th birthday. They were so easy to book and work with, and what was most surprising, was that he was able to adapt and completely prepare a vegan meal for me. And no, it wasn't just a salad and random sides. He was able to completely prepare a vegan Cajun dish for me, complete with main entrees, and a really good vegan dessert too. It was a brown butter pound cake but wasn't too decadent and just the perfect amount. I know private chefs with experience vegan cuisine is hard to come by, so please to give Chef Gason a shot if you're in the area. You'll be blown away and I dare say, many of my non-vegan friends are interested in the meal that I had and almost wanted to try my dish instead. read more

We were so fortunate to have Chef Gason prepare a four-course dinner for our group of 10 while in New Orleans to celebrate our friend Heather's bachelorette weekend. Chef Gason was wonderful to communicate with, prompt, and accommodated all of our requests and food sensitivities. Everything that Chef Gason and Tiffany prepared for us at our Airbnb was delicious and fresh, and they were so warm and friendly to our group. It was wonderful to be able to relax in our Airbnb and enjoy an amazing meal without worrying about cooking or making a reservation. I would recommend Chef Gason and his team to anyone visiting New Orleans, and hope to eat some of his delicious food again soon! read more

We recently had Chef Gason cook a private dinner in New Orleans for a bachelorette party of 10, and I couldn't recommend him more. From the planning to the execution stage, he was a dream to work with. He was very flexible in terms of timing and budget, and the day of, when our bachelorette had a cancelled flight (and then rebooked a few hours later), he could not have been more accommodating to our changing schedule and needs. The food was delicious - definitely one of the highlights of our weekend in New Orleans. read more

Chef Gason was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Every course was flavorful and crafted perfectly. Our party had so much fun with Chef Gason and Tiffany! We couldn't recommend him enough! Him, his food and his staff are PERFECT! read more

Chef Gason was absolutely amazing! We booked him for my cousin's Bachellor party in New Orleans and he came to our airbnb and made an absolutely amazing meal. Chef Gason is amazing specifically for the following reasons: 1. Quality of the food he makes is awesome. He explains the history and concept behind each dish and he made some of the best food we had throughout our entire stay. Truly traditional Cajun/Creole Cuisine that was mouthwatering at every bite. 2. Service he provides is also impeccable. he prepares the food, plates it nicely, serves it and then cleans up everything afterwards! 3. Chef Gason is also super flexible and was so wonderful about working with us as plans were slightly changing and adjusted accordingly. he even was conscious of dietary restrictions and made a special dish for one person in our group just to help be accomodating. 4. Chef Gason is super fun and creates a fun environment that was perfect for our group of 12 guys. He has so many stories to share, insights about life and food, we could hang out with him for hours! Don't hesitate, book Chef Gason and I can assure you will have an amazing time! read more

OMG!!! The absolute worst! This Chef is one of the most, if not the most unprofessional business persons that I have ever encounter. He was booked to do my sister's bachelorette brunch in New Orleans the past Sunday. 07/31/22. The man did not show up! Instead he sent a representative and some other chef. Gaston did not call, did not respond to email correspondence. When I went to his Instagram page it showed that he was in Los Angeles at Disneyland. He was booked for the experience that he is supposed to provide. The only experience he gave was disappointment. I paid a nice amount of money person and I feel robbed. I would not recommend him to anyone. Dont book him. read more

Chef Gason cooked a dinner for our family during our recent family vacation. The food was superb and both he and his assistant Tiffany were professional, courteous and fun to be with. We were a combination of adults and small children. They served the children in one course, per our request. This dinner was the highlight of the week and I highly recommend Chef Gason! read more

I threw a surprise private dinner for my partner's 37th birthday and I cannot express how amazing Chef Rey and his wife, Katie, were! Chef Rey called earlier in the day to confirm details with me, showed up on time with extra gas burners because we were staying in a tiny Airbnb guest house. The things they did in the little kitchen blew my mind. The food itself was the best we had in New Orleans- and we ate at all the top recommended restaurants. Chef Rey and Katie could have their own cooking show. They were so personable and so informative/patient (we asked a ton of questions) and they really did put all their love into our 5 course meal! Worth every penny and then some- cannot recommend them enough! read more

It would have been nice to know in advance that we were not receiving Chef Gason. We received Chef Ray and his wife and they are simply adorable. Since I was unaware Chef Ray was assigned to me, I had to verify who he was as I was expecting Chef Gason. I've had personal chefs in the past so my expectations were a bit high. I had a party of 7 and none of my guest had ever experienced a personal chef so this was my gift so I was excited for them to have this opportunity. At 90 per person, I would have expected linen napkins and tablecloths as opposed to a bare table and paper towels. Chef Ray and his wife were excellent. The food was delicious and they were very personable. The other guest felt they could have dressed the part more as opposed to dressed in back yard bar-b-q attire. The food was delicious, we were lacking in presentation from setting the table to chef attire. read more

Chef Gason and his assistant are a legit New Orleans treasure. You can tell he has a true love for cooking. Chef Gason cooked for my family of 6 for my husband's birthday. He made a special dish for our two children and another menu for the adults. My mother was so impressed by the salad dressing, that she requested that it be bottled up and brought home (it was really that good!). Every course was enjoyed by all and included many wonderful New Orleans favors. You will not be disappointed if Chef Gason cooks for you! read more

What am amazing experience Chef Gason provided our group of 9 recently in Nola for a Bachelorette party! His cooking is absolutely phenomenal and even the pickiest of eaters enjoyed the traditional New Orleans fare. It was also a nice break not to have to brave the crowds of Bourbon Street to get to a restaurant. We had a 5-course dinner in our PJ's while listening to music one evening. He catered breakfast the other two days and it was such a wonderful way to start the day. He and his assistant Tiffany are so friendly and personable and know so much about the area. They were by far the highlight of our trip and I can't recommend them highly enough! read more

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Chef Gason for brunch. He opened his home to me and my family and friends! The food was impeccable and delectable, not to mention the uber friendly staff. I felt like I was home. Thanks Chef for the experience! I will be booking him for my wedding! read more

I just threw a bachelorette weekend with 12 girls staying at an airbnb in New Orleans. We came up with a meal plan real quick over email which would be within my price range. We got Chef Ray and his crew -- they did a wonderful job with our 3 course dinner. The food was absolutely delicious and well presented. I am still craving some of that dirty rice !! Chef Gason's staff made everything look super easy while we sat back and enjoyed spending time together (while not having to worry about restaurant reservations for that many people...). Highly recommend. read more

We had an amazing time celebrating our 26 years of Sisterhood at a AirBNB in New Orleans. To top our experience was the amazing tasteful meal prepared by Chef Rey, his wife Kathy, and Tiffany with Full of Flavor private Chef services. We can't say enough about our delicious meal. Chef Gason the owner of the company and his staff was very professional, prompt, and exceptional throughout our booking. We will definitely use their services again when in the area!!!! The ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. ~ Spring 1994 thank you and your staff for taking our weekend to the next level! read more

Chef Gason and his team prepared a delicious in-home dinner for my friend's birthday. He was great to work with, understood our needs and special requests, and designed a wonderful menu for this festive event! We had a nice crisp salad with regional berries, decadent crab quenelles, and superbly prepared redfish with a sauce to die for. And to top it all off, he put on a delightful presentation while preparing our bananas foster for dessert! It was an amazing meal and an overall fabulous experience. I very highly recommend him. read more

Chef Gason's team came to our rental and prepared a meal for 11 of us who were in New Orleans celebrating a couple of 50th birthdays. The food and the service both were outstanding - Chef Ray's gumbo was the best any of us have ever had! And the Bananas Foster was ridiculously delicious- Thank you so much for making our special trip that much more fantastic! I highly recommend you give them a try. read more

Chef Gason and his team were great to plan with. I was looking for a home cooked meal that a group of 10 could either assist with or sit back and relax in our Airbnb. Chef Kevin and Tiffany arrived right on time with all the equipment needed. We had soup, salad, and a delicious red fish with jambalaya that was to die for. Followed by creme brulee. They were really fun to have cook for us, I highly recommend for a group dinner at home! read more

Chef Gason was the highlight of the trip. He was responsive and worked closely with us in creating a custom and authentic brunch menu. He had all the bases covered and the food was served right on time. Made our fantasy draft for bunch of guys that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend and will procure his services every time. Enjoy! read more
