I truly can not say enough good things about Tiffany. She was so easy to work with from start to finish! I hired Tiffany to surprise my fiance on his bachelor trip the first night. She executed my vision thoughtfully and seamlessly. She went above and beyond to make sure the night was special! She worked within my budget, and even through in tiramisu at the end because I told her it was my fiancés favorite! All of the boys told me how delicious the food was and how awesome she was. If you’re looking for a private chef for your next event…look no further!!
Tiffani prepared a wonderful 4 course dinner for the adult members of my family during our vacation in San Diego. Tiffani was easy to work with regarding menu planning. Each course was beautifully presented and sourced from local San Diego area purveyors that Tiffani has longstanding relationships with. Everything Tiffani prepared was delicious and when she left you wouldn’t know she had been at our house, except for the amazing cookies she left us with! If you’re looking for a personal chef experience, I highly recommend Tiffani!
I hired Chef Tiffani to plan and cook for an intimate Friendsgiving at my home, with 18 family and friends ages 4 to "a lady never tells and you shouldn't be asking." Chef Tiffani and her sous chef Carly took my event to an 11/10! With so many guests who have food allergies and specific diets, Tiffani was the perfect choice of a chef to work with. Her focus on each individual need, along with her passion for hyperlocal farm to table, made from scratch cooking had everyone giving "Ooohs and ahhhs" with each course. Chef Tiffani even helped with phenomenal wine pairing. Everyone was well-fed and happy that I know chef Tiffani! But most importantly, I was able to focus on my guests and just have a delightful event - Chef Tiffani had everything under control.
My husband and I hired Tiffani for our micro-wedding in Joshua Tree - it is safe to say she exceeded all expectations! We have never had a private chef experience before, and the professionalism and skill was second to none. I can honestly say I have never eaten more delicious food in my life, and Tiffani's attention to detail - both when finding out what we wanted, and when preparing and serving the food was an experience neither of us will forger. If I could give more than 5*s I would! Thank you again Tiffani, your food was the cherry on the cake of our special day!!
Each time is better than the last! This is our fifth culinary adventure with Chef Tiff; we could not be happier or more thrilled. We had very specific menu requests, and Chef Tiff accommodated each and every one with creativity and panache. Every course was a visual delight and a savory experience. Plus, she’s a super great person to have in your kitchen. Already booked our next food adventure…
