    Thr yummy spread. Everything was so good, no really...
    Humam T.

    One of the nicest food cart owners. Almost everything we had was very tasty. My Shawarma wrap was so good I could not stop eating it. Even the fries were one of the best that I've had from a food cardt. The chef has been in the business for over 30 years he used to be a chef at high end restaurants in iraq. The prices were also reasonable. We will definitely be back. Unfortunately, he wasn't very busy because the owners of this Gresham food cart are not taking care of it, and people don't want to be here. That's unfair for the food cart owners who are working their butts off to make ends meat.

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.

Upon my initial email, she responded within 24 hours with a request to set up a phone conference to discuss the details of my event and my group's dietary preferences. Within the next couple weeks, we spoke by phone and she was asked many questions about the group, the event, meal preferences, etc. We spoke so long the conversation become very personable and I then explained to her that I was looking at other chefs, as well. She emailed me within 48 hours a nice menu including appetizers and dessert. I was very impressed. I had two ladies within my group whom were vegans and vegetarians and she ensured our meal would work to their palette. When I made the decision to work with Michelle, the professionalism continued. Me and Michelle kept in contact and right up to the event to confirm the menu details, the deposit, etc. On the day of our dinner, we entered the home and the aura of the food and the presentation was amazing. We started our meal with a fruit pico de gallo mix with fresh fruit that was absolutely devine. She also arranged a charcuterie board with fresh hummus, variety of cheeses and crackers. There was also a salsa tray with blue chips, fresh made guacamole and two different types of salsa. Our main meal included tilapia, blend of chorizo potatoes, rice and beans and mix of corn and flour tortillas. She ensured everyone's needs were met and me and my friends enjoyed every bit. Michelle ensured the kitchen was clean before she left. Michelle is a gem to work with and her attention to detail is amazing. It shows through her work ethic, food display and taste that she has a sincere passion for this work. If you are in the Portland area, please do not hesitate to book Chef Michelle for your culinary needs as you will not be disappointed.

    I was in Oregon for a girls wine trip weekend and one of my friends found Michelle from extensive…read moreinternet research. I'm so happy she did! While we were touring Oregon wine country, Chef Michelle and her assistant Gina were busy preparing us a feast for our return. As soon as we opened the door, we were met with glorious smells and smiling faces from them both. We started our meal with finely chopped mixed fruit that I would say was reminiscent of a fruit salsa. The fruit was sweet and refreshing. Then we fantastically arranged charcuterie board that had all types of fruits, cheeses, crackers, dips and breadsticks. We didn't know where to begin because we also had blue corn chips, salsas and fresh made guacamole on the table. Deliciousness at its finest! Our main meal was tilapia fish for tacos, a blend of vegan chorizo potatoes and spices for a vegan option, rice, beans and a mix of flour and corn tortillas. When I say all the food was fresh and flavorful and all the flavors just engaged so well with each other, that would be an understatement!!! This was a culinary party at its finest and I'm so happy I was able to have this experience while visiting Oregon. Both Chef Michelle and Gina went above and beyond to assure we were well taken care of and Gina even played shoulder shaking music to keep us grooving while we enjoyed our meal. If you are ever looking for a personal chef with very personal touches, Chef Michelle will not disappoint.

I knew that has to change in order to have a healthier lifestyle. So I hired Personal Chef to help me prepare my daily meals. At booking, she sent me a short list of questionnaire to help her understand my food preference. I constantly experienced indigestion and bloating probably due to the foods I ate and how (fast) I ate them. Understanding my concerns, Personal Chef Mia helped me design delicious menu options to address these issues. On the day of the meal prep, she arrived at around 930 am and was in my kitchen for the whole day to help me prepare these delicious meals. Before her arrival, I had an empty fridge & freezer, when she left, they were full of healthy and delicious gourmet prepped meals & they are all properly labeled too. Thank you Personal Chef Mia!! I highly recommend using her services.

    We were excited to hire Sage. Unfortunately we had a very bad experience and learned that the…read morecompany doesn't take responsibility for the chef's they place in your homes. There were a couple of things that happened, but the worst of it was our chef served us raw chicken. We were told the chicken was fully cooked so we didn't think twice before sitting down to eat it. It was heavy sauced and the chicken was in small pieces so we couldn't tell the meat was raw until it was too late. I immediately contacted Sage and they were much more concerned about a review than they were our potentially getting sick. On that same cook date, the chef broke our stovetop. He used it the entire day cooking and at the end of the day I heard him trying to start the ignitor a couple of times, so I checked it after he left. It only partially ignited so I contacted him and asked about it. He said there may be some "debris in the passage" and included a DYI video link on how to fix it. It's a gas stovetop so I'm not comfortable DIY'ing it and hired someone to come out and fix it. I mentioned this to Sage and sent them the $428 bill, which is hardly a big ask given they broke it and just exposed us to food poisoning. Sage refused to pay for the stovetop repair, saying we couldn't prove the chef broke it. It's $428. The chef cooked that day and it worked, he left it didn't work AND more importantly you exposed us to food poisoning. Are you serious? Twice we got emails from Sage implying that they might cover these expenses if we removed our review. Doing the right thing and taking responsibility should not be tied to a review status and their request should be kept in mind when reading the other reviews. We did not agree and have since gotten word that they aren't covering the stove, as mentioned above. The only thing they did in the end was not charge us for the cook date when we were given the raw chicken. Even that they implied was a favor since the bad chicken only represented 1/4 of the meals we got that week. Who on earth is going to eat dinners prepared by someone who gave them food poisoning? I think Sage is a great business concept and I'm sure they have some good cooks, but it seems hit and miss and if you get a miss, good luck to you.

    The food was great, however, did not meet my nutritional requirements. They sent instructions in an…read moreauthoritative tone, like an order. and generally the tone of communication was usually sharp. And dare I raise a concern, either I don't get a response and the concern is addressed by the skin of their teeth (just enough that i can't complain) or I get a long list of my shortcomings and how i didn't provide enough supplies for the job when I bought everything they said they needed from the list they provided. all in all, the food was good and probably we could have worked on the nutritional requirements with a little back and forth, but with the hostile communication style, it was not worth losing my mental health over.

    Take Home Chef Experience with Bay Area native: Joseph Hodgkinson…read more Last October 2006, our director organized a cooking event with Joseph and our department. This gave me the opportunity and encouragement to get back in to cooking through this one on one experience. Although, the food was delicious, I couldn't believe that I cooked it. Thanks Joseph for helping me. For some time now, I've ran out of dinner selections for my personal gatherings at home. Now being single, I have much more confidence to experiment with new dishes and ingredients when i invite guests for dinner. Highilights: Joseph introduces Vegan dishes. Gougere (cheese appetizer), Nicoise Salad (Mediterranean salad), Potato Gratin, and Peach Creme Brulee. Note: I served the Peach Creme Brulee last Thanksgiving and my family enjoyed it very very much! And my father is very selective with his desserts.

It was so good it nearly overshadowed the proposal.. He is stellar- just.. stellar.. You *have* to try his new style sashimi but everything was fantastic- from salad, to thai duck noodle soup to rib eye (omg- a basic rib eye should not taste that good-- it felt aged but wasn't) to Mango Ice Cream to Cardamon tea with cinnamon. And besides meal- the service.. everything was set up, put down, whole kitchen was cleaned, even better then when he arrived, the food was served on time, was hot, but not too hot, he kept refilling our glasses, stayed out of conversation, but then would join in if asked or at the right time.. It was.. amazing.. if i could afford him, I would hire him every day. We have already agreed to hire him at least once a year. And he made a menu for us to keep as a momento....
