    Just hosted my annual holiday party and we decided to level up and hire a chef this year! This professional duo, Monique & Monica, were great communicators, and catered to our groups desired menu & gluten allergies. I was impressed by the presentation and flavors of each dish that we served family style for dinner! As the host I loved being able to relax and enjoy my company knowing the cooking and cleaning was in good hands. 10/10 would recommend hiring Where the Flavors Go for your next event!!

    Engagement Dinner: Ribeye, asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes.

    Chef Mo was absolutely amazing!! I am so happy to have found her to cook for our special day. Since Chef Mo arrived her great vibes and warm smile added to our day. She went above and beyond to accommodate us with our dinner and location set up. Our dinner honestly has been one of the best cooked Ribeye I have ever had. The quality of meat and vegetables that Chef Mo cooked were perfect. Dessert wasn't far behind. I have already started recommending Chef Mo to all my friends. If I could give 10 I would but 5 will suffice for now.

    Monique made an amazing meal for our group of 15! She was professional and left our house clean with tons of leftovers! Highly recommend!

    We hired Chef Monique for a dinner in San Diego and it was beyond amazing! The food was incredibly delicious, and working with Chef Monique was very pleasant. She modified the menu to work for us and it was so perfect. She was the highlight of our weekend!

    See all

    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!

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.

I left with two salads. And I don't regret it! My goodness the steak salad is to-die-for! The steak portion and flavor--amazing! As well as all the fixings! Nutrient-densed, well-balanced, and tasty! The 2nd salad I picked up was the Salmon Peach Salad. Ahhhhh!!!! I don't see peach in salads a lot so I'm very excited to devour it!!!!

    We've been ordering meals from Alec/Deeply Nourished for years. I was first referred by a friend,…read moreand when I found out Alec uses organic/clean ingredients to make the meals, I had to try it! Since that first order we've ordered many, many times from Alec during busy weeks when we don't have time to make meals at home. I love how delicious and nutritious all the meals are, and Alec is always coming out with new and interesting dishes. Everything is organic, meats are grass fed/wild caught, and oils are clean (no seed oils). My favorites are the beef rendang, salmon chimichurri and pomegranate chicken. I like to get these in "family box" sizes so we eat the protein with either salad or rice we make at home, the food lasts longer this way. His entrees are also delicious and we sometimes get these for my husband to take to work with him. I also love the pesto and garlic chili sauces - we get these in the 8oz jars and they go so well with the proteins (or other meals we make at home)! For dessert I love the peanut butter bars and currently, the mochi cake (new item)! Delivery is always prompt. Alec is also really kind and very quick to respond to emails or texts. I have asked him about the surfaces food is cooked on and appreciated that they only cook on stainless steel and parchment paper, as this is really important and often overlooked! He also packs the meals in eco-friendly/sustainable boxes and is always updating packaging with the next best option. I also love that the big jar sauces come in glass mason jars. Thank you Alec & team for making healthy nutritious meals we can feel good about eating!

Each time, Chef Yoann delighted us and all our guests with an exceptional meal that has become a favorite memory. Chef arrived hours before serving, with specialized equipment and fresh, high-quaiity ingredients. He carefully crafted each dish and we thoroughly enjoyed the complexity and fine taste of his top-notch French cooking. He paced the courses perfectly, explained each dish beautifully,, cleaned the kitchen when he was done --in short, he cared about every aspect of our experience. His policies and costs were fair and clearly stated upfront, with no hidden charges. Complimentary extras included custom menu cards at each place setting, fresh-from-the-oven homemade baguettes, and a referral, if requested, to a sommelier for wine pairings. It's extraordinary to celebrate like this in the comfort and privacy of your own home. We wholeheartedly recommend Chef Yoann and plan to have him at our house again.
