Chef Livi of The Painted Olive gave us an unforgettable dining experience for my best friends and…read moreI's 40th birthday dinner. From start to finish, everything was exceptional! She curated a Caribbean inspired menu that was so thoughtful. We began with papas rellenas, perfectly crisped potato croquettes stuffed with beautifully seasoned curried lamb. They were so flavorful. Next was a vibrant Caribbean salad with leafy greens, dried tropical fruit, prawns, and a delicious honey-lime dressing. It was fresh, bright, and perfectly balanced. For the main course, she served jerk cornish hens with rice & peas and mixed vegetables. The flavors were incredible!!! To end the evening, we enjoyed a refreshing dragon fruit and mango sorbet that was the perfect ending. May I also add that Chef Livi was incredibly accommodating, thoughtfully adjusting dishes for allergies and preparing a beautiful vegan substitute for one of my friends without compromising flavor or presentation. Every dish was prepared with care and love. You can truly tell she enjoys cooking for others and takes pride in her craft. I would absolutely book Chef Livi again in a heartbeat!!!

If you are looking for authentic French cuisine, Sylvie is it. Working with Sylvie is an…read moreabsolutely amazing experience. We've known Sylvie for almost 5 years and all dinners were always absolutely incredible. And due to Coronavirus we needed an alternative to inviting our friend eating out for her birthday. Sylvie pays great attention to detail and the presentation is stunning. If you are looking for a private chef who cooks at your house, look no further. She is it.

Do I know Sylvie? Yes. Am I friends with Sylvie? Yes…read more Did the friends or the food come first? Maybe the food. Would we still be friends if her food wasn't delicious? Possibly, but it would be hard. Are we great friends because her food is delicious and she's French? Mais, oui. Did she cater the most important surprise event I've ever thrown in my life, for my wife? Yes, and she knocked it out of the park!!! Seriously, Sylvie is an excellent chef. Her French food is (and my wife and I lived in France) is truly wonderful and authentic. And while she COULD cook frou-frou heavy cream Lyonnaise food for you, you'd rather that she cook the food from where she grew up in Normandy. Truly talented - hire Cuisine de Sylvie as your personal chef or for events. Magnifique!

By the time I got the dishes reheated to serve we did not sit down for our Thanksgiving dinner till 8:30pm. My Thanksgiving dinner was ruined! They were not apologetic at all and avoided answering my calls only responding via text. And they only responded when they missed each deadline they missed at 5:30, 6:30, 7:30pm. While the food was tasty no one really enjoyed it because it was so late and my whole holiday was ruined because I was not able to serve anything to my guests.

The menu she developed was off the charts spectacular. She arrived on time with her helper Kim. They were very mindful of social distancing and wore masks the entire time. She brought EVERYTHING to include tablecloths and plates. All food was prepared fresh and perfectly. Chris presented each plate and gave us a description of each course. We really felt like we were transported to a fine dining restaurant in another country! AND they cleaned everything up before leaving!! We will truly be talking about this experience for a very long time! I highly recommend letting Christine be her creative self. Let her know your likes and dislikes and she will come thru for you too! We had an 8-course tasting menu and i have to say it was actually too much food! When does that ever happen?!
