Jamie was phenomenal. She came out our Airbnb and cooked for a difficult to please group of women. Everything tasted delicious and was beautifully presented. She was kind and warm. Thank you chef!

I used Jamie for a private dinner on Cayuga lake and it was 5 stars across the board. From the start she was very easy to work with and our communication was great. She was able to accommodate all food preferences and I was extremely happy with our menu. She showed up to the house promptly, brought all her own plates and had a delicious charcuterie board that we snack on while plying a game as she prepared the dinner. Her presentation of each plate was beautiful, and the food was delicious! We had a delicious summer salad, a seafood bisque that everyone absolutely raved about, spinach and goat cheese ravioli in pesto and shrimp and cod in a beurre blanc sauce over mashed potatoes. I beyond recommend her!

It was an amazing experience for our bachelorette dinner and everyone's favorite part of trip visiting the finger lakes! Jamie made everything flow seamlessly and had everything cleaned up for us afterwords. Each part of our five course meal felt like an elevated experience. The charcuterie hour to start too was perfection and a gorgeous set up. Best crème brûlée I've ever had by far! Will forever be thinking about this dinner and cannot recommend enough. read more

This was my first experience with a personal chef & it was a 10/10! I had the honor of experiencing Jamie's fabolous food on a bachelorette trip of 18. She was so wonderful to work with and even priced out 2 different options & menus for me to look at! Not only was her cooking amazing but her energy lit up the kitchen! Can't recommend her enough! read more

Jamie was absolutely AMAZING. She set up, cooked, and cleaned up for 15 girls at a rented property. She brought fancy looking plates, made the aesthetic beautiful, and her food was to die for. She was so friendly and pleasant and made sure we had an amazing night. I highly recommend using Jamie for special events/nights you don't want to go out. She was also so accommodating with food allergies and let us pick our menu. The amount of food was MORE THAN ENOUGH. We were all stufffffed after. I highly recommend Jamie!!!! read more

This is my first time using a personal chef business, and Jamie made it worth while. I hired Jamie for my best friend's Bachelorette weekend at the Finger Lakes - it was perfect. Let me tell you why. 1) I am a person who likes prompt responses, and that person was Jamie. Every email I sent, she was able to respond within hours. She even would let you know that she saw your email and that she would respond the next day. She never left you hanging. 2) She works with you to customize the menu. She is inclusive to those who have allergies. I know this is a common thing amongst dining experiences, but she made sure to double check with us even during the day of. Even though a girl in our group was allergic to fish (not shelfish), she made sure to let me know what dishes contained potential fish stock so we wouldnt choose it. 3) Her presentation is amazing. She made sure everything looked perfect especially for my best friend's special day. The food was so delicious that we had to do laps because we wanted to eat more and save room for her amazing dessert. 4) Her personality is amazing. She made us feel comfortable. Within 5 mins of talking to her, she was literally one of the girls. Thank you so much for a great experience. read more

I hired Jamie for my first time hiring a private chef for my friends bachelorette party at an Airbnb on Oneida lake. The bride requested a chef and as her maid of honor I wanted the best and Jamie sure delivered !! Everyone raved that it was the best meal of their lives, and it was a great highlight of our trip. Jamie went above and beyond by helping me make menus to match the party theme and being flexible with vegetarian options and other aspects of the party. She was very professional and friendly as well to all of the guests. My favorite was her mushroom ravioli ! I would recommend her to anyone !! read more

Jamie is an incredible Chef! She did an in home chef experience for my parent's 70th birthday meal and everyone LOVED it! She brought everything mostly prepared and then cooked it up fresh from starters to dessert. Everything was beautifully plated and served to us so all we had to do was relax and enjoy! Everything looked as great as it tasted and the best part was that we were in the comfort of our own home! She created a local, fresh, elegant, and most importantly delicious 5 course meal! She listened to me ramble on about what my family likes to eat and then worked hard to customize the menu based on everyone's preferences/allergies/restrictions. And at the end there are zero dishes, she left everything really clean. It was such a great experience that I ended up hiring her for another in home chef experience and that one was also amazing! It was the perfect way to make a special event really memorable! Thanks Jamie! read more

I ordered for 18 people, for a weekend event at The Ohio State University. Everyone loved the food, from the foodies to the non-adventurous eaters who'd never had Ghanaian food to vegan and gluten-free guests. I ordered a chicken curry, red-red (a hearty dish with black-eyed peas), saffron rice, egusi (a yummy spinach dish that was vegan but tasted like a better version of American creamed spinach), a blend of carrots / cabbage / other root vegetables, fried plantains, and a vegan rice pudding. The vegans and gluten-free eaters did an actual happy dance when they saw that a) Kuukua had listed all ingredients for each dish on the catering lids and b) other than the chicken curry, most of the food was vegan and gluten free. You could tell that everything was made from scratch, with love and attention. My guests loved all the dishes, but the chicken curry, egusi, and saffron rice were the biggest crowd pleasers. Everybody, including the meat eaters, cleaned their plates and went back for seconds. It was also affordable, very comparable in price to catering from local Indian and Chinese restaurants. In case you couldn't tell, I couldn't be happier. I've already recommended Asempe to my day-job company for a future event, and I look forward to visiting Kuukua at her pop-up at The Hills Market Downtown.

Jamie helped make my parents' 50th anniversary a memorable and very special occasion! She is a seasoned pro--and it shows. I especially appreciated her excellence in customer service. When I was searching for a personal chef for a specific date, at that time NOBODY was available, including Jamie. I must have called at least 8 chefs. But about a week later she reached out to let me know of a cancellation and that she was available. I was so surprised and really appreciated that. Because it was such short notice, she even made sure to get the contract/pay terms updated to accommodate--sign of a true pro! She was very open to our ideas for a personalized menu, and offered suggestions to make it amazing. Everything was homemade, gourmet, and delicious! And to top it all off, she managed this in the tiniest of Air BnB kitchens! Bravo, chef! Thank you for making this an occasion my family will be talking about for years to come. And thank you for handling every detail perfectly, it allowed us to just relax and enjoy precious time with my family! read more

I would like to share an outstanding review of a chef Jamie who orchestrated an exquisite and unforgettable six-course dinner for a bachelorette party of 16 women. The experience was nothing short of magical! Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and creativity. We are still raving about the incredible food and can't stop reminiscing about how delightful every bite was. A special shoutout to her wonderful sous chef, who was an invaluable partner in creating this culinary masterpiece. Together, they made the evening truly remarkable. We're all still dreaming about that delicious culinary journey and can't recommend this talented duo enough for any special occasion! read more

Jamie was our chef for a 7 person dinner while we were visiting Skaneateles in May. From the moment I contacted her she was incredibly responsive, professional, and so kind. Jamie had a variety of menu options that we selected in advanced. She prepared an incredible five course meal for us (plus charcuterie) that was flavorful and filling. Each plate was beautiful as it was delicious. She was accommodating to our food allergies, preferences, and was on time and professional. I would highly recommend Jamie for your private dining needs! Thank you again, Jamie! read more

If you are looking to hire a personal chef, Jamie exceeded way beyond our expectations. Because of pandemic we decide to surprise our parents with a personal chef experience for their 25th wedding anniversary in the comfort of our own home. From the menu planning to the execution of our dinner, desert and drinks, everything was over the top. The quality, presentation, taste and service for each course can compete with any 5 Star restaurant. If you are looking for an amazing personal, small event chef, Jamie is the one. She is FANTASTIC! read more
