Chef Trang provided an incredible experience for our 18 guests. She went above and beyond to help us setup and make the party amazing. Food was the highlight, from steak, salmon to quail; we felt like we had a full gamut of wonderfully prepared dishes. Chef even helped us with rentals and decor. Dealt with surprises as they came up, really appreciate her making our party magical.

We had a private chef come over last night to cook tomahawk steaks, and she knocked it out of the park. Not only were the steaks spot-on—perfectly seared and juicy—but the sides were just as impressive. The salads were fresh and balanced, and the corn with bacon was addictive. What made the evening even better was her personality. She was funny, social, and made the whole night feel relaxed and fun—like having a friend over who just happens to cook like a pro. It wasn’t just dinner, it was an experience, and I’d absolutely invite her back again.
