“I booked Chef Ricky for my birthday party, and I couldn't be happier! The food was amazing, and he was so friendly and professional. My favorite was the Miso Chicken. It was my first time trying it, and WOW, it was delicious! I truly enjoyed the entire experience and would definitely recommend Chef Ricky to anyone looking for a great private chef. I'll absolutely be booking him again!”

“Chef Ricardo was lovely to communicate and plan with. He was so patient and accommodating to what I needed for the night's meal. We had some dishes from his jamaican menu and they looked and tasted great and his wine pairing was perfect too! He was great company on the night, great to have conversation with and also gave us space to enjoy conversation amongst ourselves.”
