  • I highly recommend Chef Collin. His food is amazing - every dish is unique and flavorful, and our entire group was raving about now delicious the meal was. He is creative with his presentation and is focused on the meal being an experience, not just food. The service was flexible to our needs and what the group was feeling, and highly professional.

  • Wonderful food. Chef Collin was prompt and provided a lovely spread and cocktail suggested upon request. He was flexible with timing which was super helpful, and bussed the kitchen when done. 10/10!

  • I highly recommend Chef Collin. He made a delicious 4 course menu for my friend’s 50th birthday for 6 of us. His menu was elegant restaurant quality with ingredient driven options. I looked at 5 total private chefs and Chef Collin had the most innovative choices by far.

  • Planning with Chef Collin was easy going with clear expectations. It was a full service restaurant experience in the comfort of our AirBnB. It was a ‘foodie’ crowd and we were all impressed.

  • Collin was amazing! He did a perfect cocktail hour, apps, meal and dessert for a dinner party. We had a few restrictions (pregnancy, gluten and shellfish) and he was able to curate a perfect meal for all appetites and restrictions. Would recommend Collin and gladly hire him him again!

  • Chef Collin was the perfect addition to our ladies night! He was easy to work with, he provided an AMAZING meal, and had a fun relaxed vibe.

  • This was my first experience for a personal chef and Collin set the bar high. We were visiting from out of town and renting an AirBnB, so we had no idea what the kitchen had to offer. Collin was very creative using what little kitchen supplies there were at the rental. Such a wonderful meal and cocktails to pair. I would highly recommend Collin for any occasion. The food was delicious and Collin was a pleasure to work with.

  • Collin is a fantastic chef! We had a party for eight people and it could not have gone any better. I highly recommend Chef Collin for your most important entertaining requirements.

  • Chef Collin was fantastic - great menu, easy to work with, showed up on time, cleaned up everything before he left - but seriously, the food! Every course he made was perfection and it was easily one of the best meals I have ever had. (Lobster roll, tuna ahi crudo, green thai curry miso black cod, and roasted bananas w/ vanilla cake, coffee ice cream and salted caramel). Oh yeah, and he made accommodations for the one vegan in our group.) Highly recommend!!!

  • We had an excellent experience with Chef Collin. He quickly came up with a wonderful, custom menu for our event. He showed up on time and had everything well prepared so the evening flowed well. We also had a few little kids around that were really interested in cooking and Chef Collin was so kind and generous to entertain them. Food was superb and greatly appreciate him cleaning very thoroughly!

  • Collin was amazing! Bringing the two different flavour profiles together for wedding only 3 weeks before. Our guests are still raving about the food and asked for his contact because the presentation and taste was impeccable. He also brought amazing servers and kitchen staff to help and the whole team made our evening.
