The meat, seafood, and cheeses were of the highest quality and so fresh tasting. Cooking it as a group is such a fun and unique experience; each person can cook it exactly how they like it. All the mouthwatering sauces were the cherry on top. Speaking of cherries, the s'mores dessert was a perfectly sweet ending to the night. Alex and Lindsey were professionals and extra warm and friendly, it felt like your closest friends were preparing the food for you. And they do the dishes too! We will without a doubt be repeat customers in the future. You are doing yourself a disservice if you do not try this out!

Since I hosted the event in my home this year, I got to work directly with Adam. The menu he suggested was perfect! He and Seth arrived and took control of getting everything prepared and out buffet-style for people to eat. I was delighted and pleased that Adam understood my dietary restrictions and made portions that fit my needs and kept them off to the side for me. Everyone raved about the food and the friendliness of both Adam and Seth. After the event, they cleaned up the kitchen, stocked our refrigerator with leftovers and follow-ed up to be sure we were pleased with everything. This is the way to host a party! We'll use Double Diamond Chefs again and recommend them to others.

What a wonderful and pleasant experience with the chefs!…read more My cousins and I (13 of us) took a trip out to Breckinridge, Colorado for fun and we decided to hire a private chef to cook dinner for us one of the nights. We had two chefs arrive completely prepared with their own cookware and food to cook. They were very friendly, professional, and respectful. It was such a pleasure to welcome them into our Airbnb. They really made sure that we were comfortable and served well. The leader in me tried to help deliver the plates to the correct people, but they did not let me haha, which was a pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend booking a private chef through this company. It was such a great experience and let me tell you the food they prepared was PHENOMENAL! Every dish was prepared so well!! I was so impressed and satiated by the end of the meal. We had appetizers, main, and dessert. Even all the dressings and sauces on the meat options were great. I did not get a photo of the appetizers but they were so delicious as well!

Everything was so delicious and the process of working with Shelby was completely painless and could not have been easier. She sent over a list of menu options with so many great choices that it was difficult to narrow it down. In the end we settled on crispy pork belly and eggs for breakfast, beef and lamb birria tacos for lunch, and a three course dinner including elk empanadas, oxtail osso buco, and pistachio tiramisu. We could not have been more happy with the experience. The food was spectacular, Shelby was a joy to work with, and it's clear she really loves cooking for people and takes great pride in what she does. It was fun to watch someone who is so good at what she does execute on some of the best meals we could have asked for. Highly recommend Eat Dank Food and will definitely work with Chef Shelby again without hesitation.

After Congnac, we knew it was not possible for life to get any any better. We found pure heaven. It was Chef Daniel that lead us to heaven. We can not thank him enough.

As good as it gets!…read more Chief Daniel Theme has been one of the best French Gourmet Cuisine Chefs for over 30 years as far as I remember! [...but still looking fabulous!] We both meet at Regine's Miami in the 80's-- for the younger generations, this was the place to be for the jet set, celebrities and politicians. I was a waiter who became a 'Chef de Rank' in a few months by studying Daniel behind the line and interacting with the guests in the dining room. One night, Daniel came to the floor and recommended the "soup du jour" to one of the Spaniard royal families, and I followed him to the kitchen, to see how he created the most exquisite cream out of a few vegetables. Later, I served the cream soup to the marquise who delightfully enjoyed it and asked me to bring Daniel back to personally tell him how delicious it was! His menu is full of eccentricities carefully measured to massage the palate and discover the flavors of a fusion cuisine, full of bursting flavors covering from the Patagonia to Alsace while dwelling in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean creole with Asian reminiscences. " Le canard a la'orange flambé" gives him an opportunity to make his own show in the dinning room playing with real fire. He does that again with his famous Baked Alaska - Ganache and Raspberry Cardinale for dessert. The Salmon Mousseline with Lobster Bisque is to die for! His Jumbo Prawns with Mango Tequila-cilantro Salsa reminds you of a memorable Tex-Mex story, while the Lamb 'Lollipop' Chops with Dijon Mustard, Green Peppercorn, and Cognac Sauce takes you to a fairy tale land below the Sahara line. Daniel knows how to entertain the patrons while becoming a celebrity chef in the dinning room, kissing and hugging the guests that come to the restaurant following him as repeat customers, and the new ones who happen to fall in love with him the first time they visit. He is a true celebrity since he was one of the first Chef to entertain a TV program with Telemundo, if not the first with Cocina Crisco in the early nighties, and other spaces in Univision, and later in PBS. He is sought after the Moroccan royalty and other Caribbean tycoons to entertain their famous guests on their boats featuring his 'haut cuisine'. In a nutshell, I consider that Chef Daniel is BIG among the best chefs in the world. This is not an oxymoron: It is history that has been recorded during many years in the media and he remains trendy and up-to-date, like the Mexicans put it, " y sigue siendo el Rey"!
