Dylan customized our menu based on my family's preferences for fresh, clean naturally flavorful dishes and he delivered an epic 5-course dinner that tasted as incredible as it looked. Truly fine dining in the comfort of our Airbnb home. I also appreciated how laid back and flexible Dylan was the entire time - he's a true professional and rolled with the punches. His 2nd chef couldn't make it last minute but Dylan made sure this didn't affect our experience by shopping for half of his ingredients and swinging by to check out our kitchen the day before so that he could maximize his time the day of. The presentation of each course was also perfectly timed, allowing for room to breathe in between and each new course was brought to us hot and fresh off the stove. (Anyone who's hosted Thanksgiving dinner will know it's not easy to time the cooking of multiple dishes at once - I've tried and failed ). Additional bonuses that were meaningful to me: All produce was organic, and the seafood/meat was purchased fresh the day of from Whole Foods (tender grass fed rack of lamb, melt in your mouth sea bass, and truly the biggest scallops I've ever tasted). FYI Dylan is also fantastic with nosy kids who like to ask silly questions and/or get involved in the kitchen. Can't wait to taste his cooking again in the future!

There are limitless menu options and Chef Angela is willing to design menus that fit your specific wants and needs.

I will absolutely work with Chef Angela for any and all catering needs in the future and recommend that everyone do the same!

I found Eat Your Heart Out Edibles after a long search on the internet for someone to come and replace our previous personal chef who had moved on to other pursuits. Absolutely the best decision we could make. Angela is a motivated, inspired, and a very creative chef. Her menu is vast and ever changing. She caters to all types of diets and is very flexible with scheduling when it's time for a cook date. Angela handles all of the grocery purchases, brings her own pots, pans, and utensils and cleans up everything when she's completed or, if needed, will cook off-site and deliver...very accommodating! Look no further if you're looking for a personal chef.

CozyMeal is a national brand seeking to directly connect us with local professional chefs and…read morecaterers. Whether it's for cooking classes, team building activities, or catering services, it's a great way to enjoy a night out with loved ones or new acquaintances. Instead of the typical dinner at your everyday restaurant, why not go behind the scenes in a relaxed atmosphere and directly engage the Chef? Better yet, you'll find yourself cooking and picking up tips along the way. Chefs are vetted and come from a diverse range of culinary backgrounds. Hosted at their place or yours, you're able to choose from variety of experiences. They've recently expanded to Philadelphia and Chef Renee Weigel is one of their brightest stars. She was awarded the James Beard Scholarship and will soon graduate from the Drexel Culinary Arts program. But don't let the fresh face fool you. Her experience in the restaurant industry starts from a young age. With local Pennsylvania Dutch roots, she's worked in numerous restaurants and has a passion for sustainable agriculture and sourcing ingredients from local farmers. She's also involved with LocalStove, which provides subscription-based meal prep planning or catering. For CozyMeal, Chef Renee's base of operations is the open kitchen at Good Food Flats. With a gorgeous tablescape and place settings all ready, I knew all I had to do was pop open a bottle of wine and relax. After a brief introduction, Chef had us join in on the prep for the meal. My friend Sembat got to work on chopping up some shallots while I went after the onion. This was all for the base of a nice red sauce, with both fresh vine-ripened and canned tomatoes. Touch of sugar, salt, and herbs and it was good to go. There was also plenty left for us to take home in several jars! Chef Renee then cooked up some arborio rice to make risotto. With this cooled, we helped roll out some rice balls with bread crumbs, which were then deftly fried to give us our first course - arancini with homemade red sauce. Delicious! I was excited for our next dish. Having had Vetri's spinach gnocchi several times, I actually attempted a recreation a few months back. That was definitely a fail, with the gnocchi turning out rock hard. But having Chef Renee provide me with proper instruction, we were able to create a rustic and fluffy iteration, with ricotta and fresh spinach coming through. The browned butter and Parmesan helped to create a salty bite that was simply delicious. Definitely helped myself to seconds of this. For dessert, a quick 15 to 20-minute baked olive oil cake was all we needed. Crispy on the outside and fluffy within, we had a lot of fun plating our own dishes. We even made homemade whipped cream and topped it all with powdered sugar and slivered orange slices. Bellisimo! Be sure to check out the CozyMeal options available in Philadelphia. Apart from the Italian Recipes cooking class with Chef Renee, she also has cooking classes for Dim Sum, Mexican, and French fare as well. CozyMeal is expanding quickly and appears to be a great way for folks to amp up date night or provide a creative way to host friends.

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!!!

It took away from the overall look. If you're going to allow outside catering, you should allow some space in your kitchen. Also, it was very hot in the hall, and that was before the dancing started. Not sure if the air was off or set at the incorrect temperature. Thankfully there's a nice set-up outside so we were able to go outside to cool off. Parking was also an issue, not much at the venue.
