We hired Corey Stokes and 2 others to cook, serve and clean up for a party of 15 in Hanalei…read more Everything was amazing. Corey and his team were professional and the food was delicious. Throwing a last minute birthday dinner while on vacation was not something I originally planned for. It was so easy working with Corey while in California. He provided a great menu with selections to choose from but was also very open to making other dishes. I opted to choose from his menu and it was amazing. He prepared and assortment of fresh sushi rolls, brushetta w/olive tapenade for appetizers. Dinner was an island version of cesar salad (with seared ahi tuna, nice touch), fresh broiled ono, filet mignon, roasted veggies.. all with an island touch. we had planned to take care of dessert ourselves but unfortunately, the icecream we had was too runny to serve, Corey and his team jumped in by running to the local market to get fresh icecream and they served it with yummy fresh fruit that they brought as a back up. I highly recommend if you are planning an event to hire Corey and his team. The price was very competitive, the food and service amazing. So easy to work with. Wish he was here in the mainland!! Mahalo!

We had Chef Cory cook two dinners during our trip to Kauai and they were spectacular! He was very…read moreflexible in the meals and showcased a wide range of cuisines. We opted for Hawaiian / Pan-Asian for our menu and had some the best meals we ever tasted. We had a group of 15 people, 9 grown up foodies and some children who are very picky eaters. He somehow made food that made everyone happy. As a grandpa himself, he knew how to make kids food and wasn't bothered by the little kids running around while he cooked. As a parent of young kids, it was totally worth it compared to the hassles of organizing, transporting, and dealing with everyone going out to a restaurant with 15 people... this was nice and easy. This was our first private chef experience so we didn't know what we were getting into, but he made it very easy for us throughout the process, from meal planning to clean up.. Chef Cory's pricing was similar to the other options on the island and his initial quote was fairly accurate compared to the final invoice. I will definitely hire him again next time I'm in Kauai!

We had a beautiful charcuterie tray with fresh fruits, prosciutto, Parma ham, seasoned cheeses, tapenade, etc. It was as enticing to look at as its lovely flavors were to behold. Additionally Chef Tom prepared a sashimi grade tuna Niçoise salad tray with jammy eggs, seasoned red potatoes, and a myriad of other complimentary items that we drizzled with his amazing dressing. Ooo la la!!! And to top it off desserts that make your eyes roll back into your head! . I'm googling trying to find a way to recreate!

No worries if anyone has dietary restrictions/allergies, she has lots of tricks up her sleeve in terms of delicious alternatives to fit each person. She is super sweet, thoughtful, & wonderful to work with. We hired her as our chef during our stay, & also had her do some grocery services. Nadia, along with her staff were prompt, courteous, and very professional. We enjoyed the food so much. Let's just say you can kiss your diet goals out the window, because you won't want to miss out on her yummy creations. Not only did she serve us fantastic meals, she also knew a lot of cool things to do on the island, and has good restaurant recommendations as well. She is in high demand, especially during peak tourist season, so book early! I snatched her up 2 months before our 2 week trip, and there were a lot of sad people left out in the rain to fend for themselves. Cannot express enough how highly I recommend her! 100 bajillion stars plus 1 dinosaur! P.S. - she didn't mind working on the holidays at all ;)
