Jason created a fabulous and delightful event, all of our guests raved about the experience. All the planning was done from my home on the east coast--Jason couldn't have made it any easier, with his responsive communication and great menu ideas. He created a fantastic menu, which was only surpassed by the beautiful presentation and delicious food. Everything was amazing--especially The Mexican White Shrimp "Gambas Al Ajillo" and the Maple Pecan Bread Pudding, both were off the charts. Portions were generous and leftovers were meticulously stored to enjoy later! Clean-up was impeccable. I couldn't recommend Flavor Affinity any more enthusiastically, Thanks Jason!

After talking to her to get a feel on our likes and dislikes she came up with a great menu! We booked a beach house in Oceanside and Chef Tori came to cook for us! Chef Tori arrived on time and she brought the food. She's so sweet and asked how we wanted the "flow" to go. We told her the kids could be served first at least they'll be taken care of. My 3 kids (10, 8, 4 yrs old) all enjoyed their meal! Everything was DELICIOUS!!! And we are all so stuffed!!! Such a great experience! She even cleans up too!!! I would highly recommend Chef Tori!!!

Each time, Chef Yoann delighted us and all our guests with an exceptional meal that has become a favorite memory. Chef arrived hours before serving, with specialized equipment and fresh, high-quaiity ingredients. He carefully crafted each dish and we thoroughly enjoyed the complexity and fine taste of his top-notch French cooking. He paced the courses perfectly, explained each dish beautifully,, cleaned the kitchen when he was done --in short, he cared about every aspect of our experience. His policies and costs were fair and clearly stated upfront, with no hidden charges. Complimentary extras included custom menu cards at each place setting, fresh-from-the-oven homemade baguettes, and a referral, if requested, to a sommelier for wine pairings. It's extraordinary to celebrate like this in the comfort and privacy of your own home. We wholeheartedly recommend Chef Yoann and plan to have him at our house again.

I'm still dreaming about every dish I had on this day and cannot wait to book him again for our special occasions.
