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!

I am a busy, working mom of 3 young children as well as an adult student. Preparing and cooking meals became a big chore for me that was getting harder and harder to fit into my schedule. I wanted my family to eat healthy, home cooked, fresh meals but couldn't find the time, so I began my search for a personal chef. I was so lucky to find the Flavorful Fork. The menu the owner develops is customized to fit your families taste and dietary needs. She takes the time each week to review the menu choices and let me tell you we have never been disappointed. Each meal is prepared fresh, packaged beautifully and ready to serve. The meals prepared by the owner are so delicious and filling! Some of our favorite meals have been Chilean sea bass, sesame crusted Ahi Tuna and Chimichangas! Having a personal chef through the Flavorful Fork is the best decision I have made. It has helped me tremendously so I can better balance my schedule during the week!
