I took a chance in hiring her because she was not one of the caterers the church had recommended to me. (They hadn't previously had any experience with her.) Well, she did NOT disappoint! She might be young, but she cooks like an old soul food veteran! Everything on the custom menu that we selected was cooked to perfection and delivered on time to the church. When we returned from the cemetery, the church staff was ready to serve the awaiting guests within minutes. We received many favorable comments on the food. I hope she left some cards with the church, because I'm sure other folks will want to hire her. I highly recommend her and would definitely work with her in the future.

We decided to have it catered. However being from Philly we had no idea on who to use. Search the internet for black caters and The Flavored Chef appeared. Made the call, decided on the menu, setup the day and time. Just like magic the food was delivered to our Vrbo location. To some very hungry people. To our surprise the food was absolutely delicious. Chef Tawanda aka " The Flavored Chef", delivered a great meal, reasonably priced and delicious. If anyone is in the Hampton Va area and needs to hire someone to cater we highly recommend her and her team. Instagram @theflavoredchef Website https://www.theflavoredchef.com/ Best regards Chef T!

I was so looking forward to this dinner based on the reviews. Unfortunately I was let down. The…read moretables were entirely too close. We had a family with two toddlers in a stroller placed right beside my family. They were never taken out of the stroller, just coughing and touching our table the entire time. And saying Hi the entire time. I was not there to entertain these two children. I was surprised the host/hostess didn't notice or ask the family to put the children at the table. The server had to maneuver to get around them. As far as our meal, the rib eye was great! Beautiful cut of beef, yet the butter was way too much and over powered the taste. Way too greasy. This does have the potential to be an amazing restaurant but the other factors really do come in to play when dining. And adding 20% tip to a 4 top was a bit much. The server would have received a larger tip if it wasn't added. Without telling me. I would like to try it again and hopefully not have the negative factors ruin the experience.

This was our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last. We were fortunate to grab two seats at the bar--our favorite place to dine--and from the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We started with the Oysters Rockefeller, which arrived piping hot. The oysters were large, flavorful, and perfectly prepared--a wonderful way to begin the evening. Our Caesar salads followed shortly thereafter. Crisp romaine, fresh ingredients, and a well-balanced dressing made for another excellent course. For our entrées, we both chose the steak and lobster tail. My wife paired hers with the grilled asparagus, while I opted for the loaded mashed potatoes. Every component of the meal was cooked exactly as ordered, seasoned beautifully, and absolutely delicious. To top off the evening, the staff surprised my wife with a complimentary slice of cake garnished with fresh strawberries and mixed berries to help celebrate her birthday. It was a thoughtful gesture that made an already memorable evening feel even more special. Prime 757 delivered exceptional food, outstanding service, and a warm atmosphere that made my wife's birthday celebration one we'll remember for a long time. We left impressed and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended.

The tacos had that…read moreslow-smoked flavor you can't fake -- the chicken was tender with a slightly charred edge, tucked into warm tortillas and topped with just enough sauce to bring everything together without making it messy. Each bite had a nice mix of smoky and tangy. The buffalo wings came out hot with a crisp outer layer that held onto the sauce really well. The heat level was just right -- enough to notice, but still easy to enjoy without reaching for water every second. You could tell they were made fresh, not sitting around. What stood out was the consistency between both items. Nothing felt rushed or thrown together. The setup itself is simple, but the focus is clearly on getting the food right.

We were fortunate enough to receive a recommendation from our wedding venue, Norfolk Botanical Gardens, for an incredibly talented rentals team, Big Top Entertainment, who exceeded our every expectation! We interacted with a few different team members from Big Top Entertainment, and what struck us most about their team was their ability to capture, transform and bring to life the ideas we had for the vision of our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception without missing a beat. Their attention to detail and artistic eye brought out the smallest, most tender moments that may have otherwise been overlooked. We received so many compliments about the beautiful set up that was completed by the Big Top Entertainment team! It's 52 days later and our guests haven't stopped raving about how beautiful the entire night was! The Big Top Entertainment team are not only masters in creation, but they are also true professionals. They arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made every small detail look perfect. The level of communication provided by the Big Top Entertainment team is impeccable as they were always willing to answer an email or call whenever we had a question, so we knew we were in good hands the day of the wedding. They were also true champions to set up many different rentals (clear top tent, wrought iron cocktail hour tables and chairs, and our hanging chandelier to name a few) through an outdoor wedding, on July 12th, in Virginia! The Big Top Entertainment team provided many different ideas and suggestions to make sure we could bring our vision to life in the best and most efficient way possible while staying within budget. They asked an abundance of great questions throughout the process to get a feel for what were our absolute "must haves" and even suggested some things we hadn't thought of. Working with the Big Top Entertainment team has been an absolute pleasure from first contact until the end of the wedding day. Their exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft makes them a stand out choice in the world of wedding rentals! We wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking an extraordinary wedding rental service! - The Canavoses

Storybook Bakery

Chocolate chip cookie review …read more.. This past Saturday my husband and I and two other couples had brunch in the area and saw an event taking place in the Downtown Suffolk Festival Park which was within walking distance from where we just finished brunch. I wanted something sweet. I walked around and found this food truck Storybook Bakery. I checked out the menu and saw they had a simple chocolate chip cookie which my husband loves chocolate chip cookies and the cookie wasn't your normal size cookie it was pretty much a big cookie that could be broken in half and shared with another person especially if you're watching your calories or carb intake. Nevertheless for $2 I decided to give this place a try and glad I did the cookie was excellent yes it was a simple chocolate chip cookie but you know all cookies are not created equal but for $2 this was definitely well worth it. If you come across this food truck definitely check out the menu there are plenty things to choose from but if you want to keep it simple and order a chocolate chip cookie 10 out of 10 I recommend. I spoke with the owner Jessica and she informed me that the cookies were made the day before perfect timing... just the right amount of crunch and softness that you would expect in a cookie and definitely the right amount of sweetness. Overall very good job! This food truck will be featured in the same area on May 16th at the same location ... save the date. Have fun and enjoy life. :)

But something was different this time. The donuts didn't seem as hot and fresh as the first time. They were kinda dry and crumbly. The s'mores had mini marshmallows and chocolate chips that weren't melted. So this was my least favorite. It felt like it was missing something. Hopefully it was just a off day and next time will be just as good as my first visit. The owner was friendly and the order didn't take to long to make. They have several other flavors I'd like to try next time, like the Oreo and fruity pebbles. They come with 6 mini donuts in a small order. You'll find their food truck at different events.
