Our birthday celebration was made extra special by the amazing culinary skills of Christine. She arrived the day before the event and meticulously prepared everything in a timely and organized manner. Using only fresh ingredients, she delivered delicious dishes that were perfectly tailored to our request for less spicy food. Mila, who worked with us to create the menu, did a fantastic job and everyone enjoyed the food. Although there were some minor logistical issues leading up to the event, we understand that we were squeezed into their already packed schedule with just a few weeks' notice. Despite an assistant who initially had the wrong event time and was hard to reach, we resolved any issues together and the gathering was a resounding success.

A month ago, we began availing the services of Girl in the Kitchen for weekly personal cheffing. Our experience with them has exceeded our expectations on all counts. Apart from relishing the delectable cuisine, we were impressed by the streamlined procedures, tailored services, and exceptional customer support. Mila adeptly managed everything right from the beginning, guaranteeing a hassle-free experience. Further adding to our satisfaction were our chefs, Nicole and Rachel, who were obliging and professional. Having someone to take care of meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning for a family of five is truly a boon. In conclusion, this service is an investment that you will certainly not regret!

For my husband's 60th birthday celebration, we engaged Mila and her team to prepare a plated 4-course dinner for 14 guests. We were blown away by the excellence of each dish as they surpassed our expectations in terms of quality. It was truly an upscale gourmet experience. We thoroughly enjoyed Amy and Piph's company as they cooked all day in our home. They possess the knowledge and skills necessary to create a delectable and unique dining experience. We enthusiastically recommend them.

My inaugural experience with Girl and the Kitchen was simply amazing, and I'm already looking forward to future collaborations! I wish I could choose every single option as outstanding! Mila was incredibly responsive to my initial inquiry and gave me a step-by-step walkthrough of the event planning process. From their promptness and professionalism to their scrumptious dishes and delightful personalities, among other superb qualities, Girl and the Kitchen has certainly earned my highest recommendation as a top-notch catering company for any occasion.
