What brought me to consult with Donna was the desire to lose some menopause weight. Through our…read morefirst appointment, a full health history was taken and discussed. Issues such as my autoimmune condition, acid reflux/GIRD, and lifestyle led to a recommendation to test for food sensitivities. I decided the testing would be an investment in my health. I had experienced these issues for more than 15 years and wanted solutions. She recommended the LEAP program after seeing my test results. The elimination/add-back plan was hard to follow at first, but I was determined to be successful. Within three months, I was off my medication for acid reflux/GIRD. I am working toward the weight loss aspect by following a Mediterranean-style plan which includes the food I am able to eat without reaction. I would recommend this program to others as it is an investment in your overall health and well-being. Please be patient to see results. To be successful, I am finding I need to change my mindset and slow down my expectations. There is no quick-fix to being healthy.

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!

So now she comes and cooks for us on a regular basis The food is fresh and flavorful and Chef Judy accommodates all our dietary preferences (we are gluten free) and adjusts her meals so they are exactly to our liking. Her portions are generous, but we asked her to make just a little bit more and now my husband, daughter and I share two servings and itt is enough for an entire meal! It's a wonderful convenience to have someone do all the shopping,cooking and clean up and all we have to do is heat and serve. We especially love her dry-rubbed ribs, her scallops in orange-ginger sauce and her chicken Marsala - so flavorful! Chef Judy is also a genuinely nice person and we love having her in our home.

We found Judy because we…read morewanted healthy home cooked meals, and we just did not have the time, with both my husband and I working. The food is amazing, lots of flavor and healthy. There is no other way we would be able to consistently put healthy meals on the table and we don't have to shop for the groceries, cook or even clean up. The service is a time savor and a real value, and she can adjust the menu to our likes and dislikes. My husband really enjoys being able to take one of the meals to his office for lunch every day. Chef Judy is kind, trustworthy, and a pleasure to have in our house and our 11 month loves her! I highly recommend Chef Judy!
