Private at home chef

I hired Stanley for a romantic dinner as a birthday dinner for my parents. They were absolutely amazed with his impeccable food and 5 star service. He went above and beyond! Listed below are their final comments. ‘Wow! Thank you Stanley for an amazing experience!! We felt like a King & Queen being waited on with the most exquisitely presented and delicious world class cuisine. A feast for the eyes, palate and the soul. Stanley gave us an amazing experience that we will hold with us forever.’ If you are contemplating working with Stanley, you will not regret it. His presentation was flawless, the food was mouth watering and memorable. Last thing I’d like to mention is when you’re working with Stanley - he approaches any obstacle you might encounter with a ‘how can we fix this’ attitude. I highly recommend working with Stanley. - Dom
