Before she left our area we stocked up on "anika food" via freezing and canning her creations. It was a sad day when we finally ate that last jar of carrot ginger soup.

Anika and her cooking are great!!…read more I really cannot say enough good things about our experience with Anika and her amazing food. If you are a busy professional or family who is trying to stay fit and eat healthy, but lack the time or creativity to come up with fun and tasty meals, I would highly encourage you to reach out to Anika. Anika was able to work with some tricky dietary restrictions and make outstanding meals, each and every time. Value wise, the time she saved us in the kitchen, at the grocery store, cleaning up, etc., was worth more than what her very reasonable fees are. All in all, if you have ever considered hiring a private chef for yourself or for your busy family, look no further than Anika!

There are no shortage of great things to say about Chef Josh. We've used him twice now for…read moredifferent celebrations and he has knocked it out of the park each time. In fact, after his latest visit we all agreed we needed to start bringing him in quarterly. Chef's cooking style is best described as transformative. He takes ingredients you'd never dream of being the star of the dish and makes it the most delicious thing you've ever tasted. Our last dinner we reqested to be completely vegetarian and he did not disappoint. Even the non-vegetarian at the dinner was blown away and left being the perfect amount of full. My husband avoids certain veggies in our day to day (texture) and the way Chef Josh cooks - well we've never left a plate bare, I can tell you that much. And when Chef Josh isn't looking.. we may have licked our plates clean. Pickling, crisping, pureeing, caramelizing - everything he puts in front of you "WOWs". Besides the food he serves, which is well worth the money, Josh's service is unparalleled. He is prompt, friendly and wonderful to chat with. He brings everything in and does all clean up as if he was never even there. Whether it's a date night, an intimate gathering or a group to impress - I would recommend hiring Chef Josh 110%. If you're even considering a private chef, look no further because there truly is no better!

4.999 stars. Chef Josh made my 40th birthday party memorable and amazing for 22 people at my home…read more We asked a few questions to start and knew he was the right chef for us right away. He doesn't have a set menu, but sources the ingredients the morning of depending on what looks good and what's in season. We had three or four passed appetizers, a salad course, a grouper / risotto course, and a caramel bar for dessert. Everything was so delicious and all of the guests raved. I have no idea how he was able to cook all of that food for that many people in our home kitchen and make it so flavorful. To keep all of the food at a perfect temperature must have been extremely challenging. Chef Josh was such a cool person also, entertaining, always happy, and so respectful of our home. Thanks so much, Josh. We hope to have you help us out again at our next event.

From the first phone call, Chef Ty was a pleasure to speak and work with. We spoke several times before the event and he went above and beyond to satisfy all of our event needs. He was on time, the food was served hot and delicious, and he left our kitchen as clean as he found it. THE FOOD - We had four passed around small bites during cocktail hour. It was all absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend the apple and blue-cheese turnovers! I think about them often. The Lamb lollipop was crazy good. The shrimp appetizer was great as well as the mushroom one. Dinner courses were presented so elegantly and tasted as good as they looked. We began with a fabulous pumpkin soup. It was honestly the best pumpkin soup I've ever had. That was followed by a tasty root vegetable salad. We then had Filet Minon over risotto with a demi glaze sauce over it. Wow! It was truly spectacular. I HIGHLY recommend Chef Ty for any special intimate dining experience you are thinking about. Our party was of twenty three people. He made it a wonderful and memorable evening for us. Thank you, Chef!‍ amazing experience!

Every other chef I spoke with would only do a 5-7 course menu, which is not what I was looking for. Chef Joe was happy to do 3 courses for us, and all of them were amazing. Coordination of the evening (menu, services, price, location, etc.) was seamless from start to finish, and he was very responsive and flexible any time I had a question or needed to make a change along the way. He left the kitchen of our Airbnb better than he found it, boxed up each person's leftovers if they had any and labeled the boxes for us by name, and even washed our plates and flatware when we were finished with dinner so that we would have them for the cake we planned to eat later in the evening. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, Chef Joe was also very personable and kind to our whole group. Reasonable prices, above and beyond service, and amazing food...I cannot recommend Couch Potatoes enough. Thank you, Chef Joe, for a wonderful meal and for making my 30th birthday better than I could have imagined!

Well he did not disappoint, from the appetizers to the desserts, each course was a hit. I am still getting compliments about the food served. I guess the best part of my experience with Perfect Chef was how easy they were to work with, nothing was too hard or complicated. Their staff were efficient and polite and did it all with a smile. Did I mention their cost was less then the other catering companies. I guess my experience was like the other reviewers....EXCELLENT. I would use them again and definitely recommend them to family and friends.

Chef Ron pulled off an amazing menu for a group of 14 adults with a wide range of dietary needs…read more (We had a few shellfish allergies, gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, and pregnant menu needs.) This was for my husband's 40th birthday dinner. I was so excited for each course that I forgot to take many photos. The food was outstanding in taste and presentation. For example, my husband likes spicy food but the rest of us don't like the same extreme level of spicy. I in particular am a huge wimp when it comes to spicy food. But Chef Ron took this information and made a spicy dish that we all could enjoy and it didn't burn my tastebuds off. The vegan and vegetarian guest were especially appreciative that the dishes they were served were not just side dishes, but rather proper whole dishes very similar to what everyone else was eating with some brilliant alterations. All the guests had a great time and raved about the quality of the food, cooking, and presentation, but the way I know for a fact that they weren't just being polite in their words, was that after every single course the plates were practically licked clean. When I reached out to Chef Ron for this special birthday dinner I was looking for something that was restaurant quality and fun and wasn't stressful. Chef Ron checked all those boxes and then some. He was extremely easy to work with on the menu and was beyond professional and fun during his explanations of the dishes. I will be looking for another reason to hire him in the future.

We had applause break out a few times-- when does that happen with adults? Not often. But they really liked making pasta and I was here for it. Because we had the event outside at Coastal Roots Farm in January, it was a bit chilly. But both Julia at the farm and the whole Cucina Migrante team pivoted well and made the best of the whole experience. I really liked that this felt like an experience and not a class. It felt fun and not forced. AND it was delicious. I think that's what you can expect from this company, so I highly recommend them.
