Chef Franco and Nicki came to our vacation rental last night and cooked dinner for 15 of us. They made everything perfect. From menu selection to the day of the party, it was all easy and perfect. Chef Franco showed up on time and brought everything he could possibly need. We picked out a gulf shrimp appetizer, followed by crab cakes. When I tell you these were the best crab cakes I have ever eaten.... I am craving them right now !!! We also had sautéed crab claws, which were plentiful and delicious. At that point, we were all full, but went on to have a Caesar salad, which again was perfection. Throughout this whole eating frenzy, we delighted in watching chef cook every part of the meal. He is not only a phenomenal chef, but so knowledgeable about the area and other parts of Florida. It made for a great dinner conversation. The main course consisted of filet mignon, and a grilled lobster tail. Accompaniments included green beans, and a homemade Mac and cheese. Just watching him make the mac & cheese, the entire room was salivating. Every aspect of the meal was beyond delicious. The meat was cooked to perfection to everyone's personal liking. Finally, we barely had enough room for dessert, but managed to get it down. Dessert was a bourbon bread pudding with vanilla ice cream. Again, this was exquisite. I am a bread, pudding, fan, and some may even say, an aficionado, and I can say this was among the best !!! Chef and Nina then proceeded to clean up the kitchen and package up all of our leftovers into the refrigerator. They left the kitchen cleaner then we found it when we got the house. Every aspect of this evening was fantastic !!!

Chef Brandon from Plate to Plate was our chef and he made an absolutely delicious dinner. We had two appetizers, a salad, main dish, and dessert and all of them were exceptional. Brandon arrived about three hours prior to the start of our dinner to get everything prepared. He was very friendly and polite, and explained to us about all the courses that we were about to eat. After the meal was over, he cleaned up all the dishes, ran them through the dishwasher, and left the kitchen cleaner than when he arrived. We also worked with Dani, who was the coordinator, and it was a pleasure working with her. The price was reasonable for such a wonderful dinner, and there were no surprise additions to the proposal. We would highly recommend Plate to Plate, and especially chef Brandon for any occasions if you are traveling in the 30A region.

She accepted over a thousand dollars and confirmed to bring dinners to our family in Cape San Blas while on vacation for the week. We received our first meal, missing one of the sides and after requesting the missing item be delivered and also questioning the quality of the food, we were told that we would be getting a refund and no more meals. So our family is stuck on vacation without allergy friendly food (not great choices in PSJ) and if I had know Colleen was going to screw us over I would have brought our food to cook from home. When you agree to feed a family that has dietary restrictions and say it can be done, don't screw them over and leave the whole family hanging including children! We have never been treated so horribly and I would not want anyone else to go through this.
