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!

He brought all the ingredients and taught us tips like how to cut an onion without crying and the right way to cut a mango! The best mai tai of my life started us off. Then he made mahi mahi with chutney, and a Caribbean themed main dish of mango sauce marinated ribs and slaw. Dessert was bananas foster due to time, he had other options including flan, but flan takes too long. Generally, it's a 4 hour night with eating at the end, so plan accordingly. The perfect Friday evening hang out with friends and learn something new. Highly recommend, especially as a gift to friends.

Chef Matt takes care of everything -- the food, the cooking utensils and cookware and the cleanup. All you have to do is select a menu, pick a date for the cooking session in your home kitchen and decide how active you want to be during the class. I chose a Spanish theme so we made patatas bravas, Gambas al Ajillo (Garlic Shrimp), Serrano Ham, Manchego, Pear and Carmelized Onion Puff Pastry Bites, and Vegetarian Paella. I cook and bake a lot, so it was great being able to pick Chef Matt's brain for tips and tricks to improve my skills. If you have a foodie in your life this is an awesome gift/experience for them!

We love Chef B's weekly meals. Food is so delicious and just perfect for my family as we are all…read moresuper busy and don't have time to cook. 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!

She was incredibly accommodating and made the whole process seamless. We ordered the meat paella for 15 people, the portion size was unbelievably generous to start, and the flavor was absolutely out of this world. It truly tasted like a trip to Spain. We also ordered the tortilla Española, and it was exquisite! A few of my guests have traveled to Spain, and they kept saying the food took them right back to their travels. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was. I honestly can't wait to find another excuse to order from Yvette and The Wooden Spoon again! ------ Español ------ Decidí organizar una fiesta de último minuto para ver el Mundial y me puse en contacto con The Wooden Spoonm. Yvette me respondió casi de inmediato. Fue increíblemente amable! Ordenamos la paella de carne para 15 personas, y la porción fur supergeneros. El sabor estaba de otro mundo. Fue como saborear a España directamente. ¡También probamos la tortilla española que quedó exquisita! Algunos de los invitados han viajado a España y compartieron que la comida los transportó por completo a sus viajes. Ya estoy buscando excusa para volver a pedir de The Wooden Spoon e Yvette!

It was the best in home private chef experience I've ever attended. The food was fantastic (the short ribs were the best I've ever had, the salmon caviar appetizer was incredible, and he served three small bites for dessert!). Everything he served was a conversation starter at our table. Truly a world-class dining experience. If I have one critique it's that Chef J is a little too soft-spoken. He's not going to blow you away with his presentation, but he more than makes up for that with his awesome cooking. After the meal I purposely found him to tell him how great the experience was, and he asked if I would write a Yelp review, and I gladly said yes. This is my first ever - hope you find it helpful!

What an evening! What a dinner!…read more We were in from out of town and had rented an Airbnb house for the week of Christmas 2020. We kicked off our first evening there with a Birthday Party for our matriarch's 80th. We decided that having a professional Chef come to the house to prepare and serve us a restaurant quality dinner would make the evening so special and take the load off of us on our first night. Chef J was so accommodating and easy to communicate with regarding our desires and needs. He helped us in creating a pleasing menu that everyone raved about. He and his assistant, his lovely wife, were so friendly and professional. They cooked, served, did the dishes and cleaned up completely. We only had to be hungry, dine and enjoy the people around the table, which was the point. Yiayia enjoyed her birthday party so much that she is still talking about it and the incredible meal. The happy hour passed hors d' oeuvres started us off followed by a surf and turf of filets topped with Chef's special version of crab cakes and on a bed of the most delicious mushroom risotto! The sides and extras finished off the meal to perfection! We highly recommend hiring Chef J for your next special event. Keep it safe and keep it at home without sacrificing any luxury in your dining experience.
