I was celebrating a milestone…read morebirthday and didn't want to take everyone to a restaurant so thought this might be a fun experience. WOW was I right! From the first few emails I knew that Josh was going to be great to work with. He listened to all of my ideas and together we came up with a delicious menu. He had so many amazing dishes as inspiration and really created the perfect menu for me and my guests. Josh answered all of my emails promptly and with such a kind attitude. We all absolutely loved the amazing food and the entire experience! Honestly, everyone was talking about it for days afterward. It was such a unique experience for each of us. None of us have ever been treated to such a special meal in a private home. There were many great comments about each course but the Oregon Mushroom Soup was the favorite for many! My sister doesn't usually like mushrooms but convinced herself to try the soup and then decided it was her favorite course ~ of course she loved everything else too. Josh and his assistant India were just so pleasant and approachable. That made a huge difference to the experience. We loved having both of them in our home. And... they cleaned everything up! I'm very particular about my kitchen and they didn't disappoint in that respect either. I could go on and on but really just want to say that Josh exceeded all expectations. We hope to have another occasion to work with him in our home.

Brittany and the two bartenders were professional, kind, and worked together as a team to take care of everything - table settings, bar setup, taking orders, cleaning, taking the garbage out, etc! Our guests had a lovely time, and we were able to enjoy it with them. Everything was easy, I really appreciated that. The meal and the presentation, were absolute perfection. We even had some leftovers waiting for us in the fridge the next day. Working with Brittany was a great experience, we look forward to curating future events with her!

The price was extremely reasonable when compared to what a meal like that would have cost in a top restaurant. We will most definitely recommend chef Rachel to our friends and family and we will certainly keep her number close by for our next event. An absolute home run from beginning to end. It's nice to know that there are still people in this world that deliver on their word.

I no longer have to rely on takeout or fast food to fill in the gaps - which is a huge money saver for us. My only disappointment is that I can't afford to have her come and cook for us a few times a week!
