What a wonderful experience. Our daughter gave us a night in a treehouse and a wonderful chef to make us dinner. Hayley Hunter made the most amazing meal using only two little burners. We enjoyed her company as she cooked. Everything was perfect.

The experience with Chef Ferguson was outstanding! As part of my wife’s 40th Birthday, chef prepared an amazing dinner for 11 and he brought provisions for a heat and eat brunch the following morning. His food was delicious, the service exceptional, and the memories will last a lifetime! If you are looking forward to an amazing experience that is sure to surprise and delight, connect with Chef! He is a star!

This was an amazing experience with an amazing chef. I highly recommend giving it a try. George and LePriest were both helpful and wonderful. The food was so good! LePriest was very professional and kind. We plan to book him again for another upcoming event.

What an absolutely perfect addition to our little event! Chef Coleen was amazing, the food was delicious and it truly made it memorable for all! I could not be more pleased and can not recommend CookinGenie enough and if you are in the Tampa Bay Area check out Chef Coleen, she has such a great menu for so many occasions and her attention to detail is incredible. She can also customize and personalize the offerings. I can't say enough good things about the entire experience from ease of the site to outcome it was all flawless.

We recently had the pleasure of having Chef Elysa Moses cook for us, and it was an incredible experience! My fiancé, who can be quite selective with food, was thoroughly impressed and loved every single dish. Chef Moses crafted a Caesar salad from scratch—no pre-packaged ingredients here! The croutons were freshly made, adding a perfect crunch to the fresh greens. The garlic mashed potatoes were a creamy delight, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. However, the real standout was the buffalo chicken nachos, creatively topped with shaved carrots and sliced peppers, which added a fresh twist to a classic dish. The spinach artichoke dip, served hot and fresh in Chef Moses’s own skillet, was simply irresistible. Instead of typical chips, she sliced and seasoned bread to dip, enhancing the flavors and textures even more. Chef Moses was not only a fantastic cook but also maintained cleanliness and organization throughout the cooking process. Her polite, professional, and friendly demeanor made the evening even more enjoyable. We couldn't have asked for a better culinary experience at home!

We had the pleasure of experiencing Chef Heather Block’s cooking in our home and would highly recommend. She was so personable and the food was phenomenal. This experience exceeded our expectations.

I was excited to learn that cookingenie is now in the DMV area. I had previously experienced this in my friend's place in Ohio. Registering on the app, viewing the menu and placing the order was super easy. I decided to try chef (Dashawn Toppin) last weekend. He was extremely professional and food was all freshly cooked in our kitchen. We ordered Thai salad, Fish tacos and Blackened Salmon. All the food was excellent. My friends were amazed at the quality of food, personal chef-like experience at such a nominal price. I thought I would have some left overs, but I was wrong. We are looking forward to experience more of Dashawn's and other Chef's food.

Had an amazing experience with Chef Eddie on Friday night! We picked the picanha with sides and he delivered. My kitchen is small and challenging but Chef Eddie made it work. Thank you for a great night!

The experience was top notch! Our Chef, John Geschrei, prepared a fabulous meal for our family. It was served promptly and beautifully. The family style service worked so nicely -- as soon as the dishes were served, Chef John said his goodbyes. The food was top quality--we'll be doing this again!

We loved working with cookingenie. The chef was very professional and likeable and honestly left the kitchen in way better shape than it normally is after dinner. The food was delicious, served warm, and was a good value!
