    I am so lucky to have found Jamie-Claire and Meal Mate DC! With three small-ish kids, finding time to cook a well balanced meal while juggling after-school activities, over-booked schedules and the chaos of weekday life has proven next to impossible. But with Meal Mate DC, we are actually sitting down for a DELICIOUS, home cooked, family dinner by 6:30pm!! Jamie-Claire makes it so easy. She takes care of the menu planning, the grocery shopping, the cooking, the cleaning and leaves all of the meals with preheating instructions and pairing suggestions neatly organized in your fridge. I couldn't think of a better way to treat myself and my family. Every single meal has been absolutely divine - from the main course down to the sides. It's also been wonderful for my children to be exposed to an array of cuisines and flavors. We can't wait to see what Jamie-Claire cooks up next! Additionally, we hired Jamie-Claire to prepare an array of appetizers for a neighborhood party in our home last weekend. She could not have done a better job. Once again, the food was beautifully prepared, immaculately displayed and everything tasted fantastic. Jamie-Claire's incredible talent radically elevated our event - she made us look so good!! Hosting events can actually be fun when you let Jamie-Claire take the wheel! We already can't wait to hire her for our next event. Final note, Jamie-Claire embodies the grounded, calm, loving and warm energy you want in your home, in your kitchen and preparing your meals. I wholeheartedly believe that the energy of person cooking a meal flows through their fingers and into the food. Their energy is thus absorbed by whomever eats the meal. If that person can't always be me (which it can't) I couldn't think of a better human being to take that role than Jamie-Claire.

    Tiramisu for my momma, it was delightful. The plates were all licked clean this evening!

You feel like you're in such a welcoming and relaxing environment, and Chris is generous with drinks to make people feel at home. Her style is really approachable, and she tries hard to offer tips that will stay with you when you're cooking at home. I've learned so much from her: I use old T-shirts to dry my meat, I never salt my potatoes before roasting them, I crank up the heat real high to roast chicken, and I make my pizza outside on the grill. She has helped me expand my food horizons and feel comfortable experimenting in the kitchen. She's also an all-around amazing individual who has been around DC a long time and has good stories to tell. In short, it's a great activity for a night out with friends or even as a couple, and she offers useful recipes that will make you more comfortable in the kitchen to boot. I wish I still lived in DC so I could take regular classes with her.

For my wife's birthday, Chris put together a customized menu with a focus on local, organic, and healthy. Her "slow food" approach has long been a staple in her instruction, long before it became cool to go green. She walked us through a five course meal, teaching new techniques while entertaining topics on food and life. We particularly enjoyed the roasted butterflied chicken with fresh sage. Our afternoon session ended with a simple, yet divine treat of strawberries with balsamic and whipped cream. Just Simply... Cuisine is one of the best kept secrets in DC. Let Chris host you in her lovely home and delight you with recipes that you'll want to try on your own over and over again.

I felt like I was at a black tie event at the White House the service was that good, I'm not even exaggerating. I wish I could post pics of the food, but I forgot. The brunch consisted of made to order omelettes, French toast that was out of this world, fresh bacon and sausage, these amazing has browns that were absolutely divine and the presentation was killer! They also served GUACAMOLE DEVILED EGGS that were just pure absolutely delicious! There was an amazing watermelon salad, shrimp salad, and a few other amazing dishes! Just when I didn't think things could get any better, out came trays of some of the most tender and well marinated steaks you could imagine. I'm a garlic lover, and they were drenched in delicious garlic and herbs! That's about all I got for the review. Please believe me when I tell you that I've traveled the world in the gourmet food business and I know when something is very special such as Pure Kitchen (PK). I didn't want to post this review, because I kind of wanted to keep the secret about how amazing they are!!! The staff was 5 stars. The food was 5 stars. The service was 5 stars.

He was very easy to work with--he shared his thoughts for a menu: Appetizers -Red wine poached pear blue cheese salad -caprese basil salad Entrees -chicken Milanese -red onion jam salmon Sides - french ratatouille - grilled sweet potatoes and cranberries Dessert -assorted of cookies, cupcakes and fruits Everything sounded so yummy but I wanted one of the salads to be vegan. Chef Serge told me that he can swap the caprese salad with green beans cherry tomato and grapefruit salad (I wanted the red wine poached pear blue cheese salad!). I approved that change however, there was some confusion. I later asked if rice comes with the entree and he said that it's extra and asked if I wanted it, I said to keep the menu as is without rice but he thought that I meant to keep his original menu. When he came with the food, it was too late to get the vegan salad. I should have ask for a confirmed menu. Chef Serge and his assistant came on time to setup and offered to stay for the entire lunch but we just want buffet style and members serve themselves. My favorites were the red wine poached pear blue cheese salad and the red onion jam salmon. It was the first time that I've ordered salmon from a caterer where they've kept the skin on. I love the skin on my salmon but caterers don't keep it on. The ratatouille was tasty but some people didn't know quite what to make of it. One of my colleagues said that it has some Caribbean spices--I mentioned it to Chef and he said that he's from Guadeloupe, go figure. The desserts were okay, some mistook it for Entenmann's. He told me that he works with local bakery for desserts. Personally, I don't care too much about the desserts, my main focus is the food. I recommend Chef Serge but I think he's best for private parties. I've referred him to someone who was looking for a caterer for a holiday party. He was very flexible, positive and reliable. If you go with Chef Serge, you won't be disappointed.

The Chef/Instructor - Paula was amazing, very detailed and full of cooking tips to inspire you. The class offered was a Pasta Making class which was something I always wanted to do. I consider myself a great cook but pasta making has been something I have not mastered. Welp, I can honestly say after taking this class I left with the tools and skills to definitely hone-in on making exceptional pasta. The technique was well explained. W e even got a chance to produce two full meals to go with the pasta. Pesto Bow Tie Pasta & Pappardelle Pasta w/ Beef Ragu were the recipes of choice. The recipes were super easy to follow along and it was fun to work in teams, while mingling with other foodies in the class who enjoy food like yourself. Not to mention, the finish product was delicious!! In all, the cooking class was outstanding. It's a great date night or place to go with friends. Also, Sur La Table is an excellent store to find any and everything under the sun for the food enthusiast and inner-chef looking for inspiration to create great dishes and cuisines. I highly recommend the cooking class and checking out this store location.

Prior to working with Linda of Simple Well Being I struggled with my diet and nutrition to get down to my goal weight for my triathlon and bike racing. With Linda, I got practical and very helpful advice to help me work towards my personal goals. I learned a lot about the foods I should be eating more of and some eye opening food errors on my part. I have since made several small tweaks to my eating and meal preparation that have paid big dividends. Linda has helped me focus on my meal planning, basics to have in my kitchen, and foods to avoid. I have since lost weight, increased my energy level, and friends are asking me what I am doing differently since the changes are so pronounced. If you are looking for someone to help you tweak your diet and get you into living a healthier lifestyle then I strongly recommend Linda and Simple Well Being.
