Jacob cooked for us and a group of friends for my husband’s birthday. It was excellent! Not only was the good delicious (and the kitchen left spotless) but Jacob was very friendly too. He was happy to have our 3 young children watch him prepare the food and answered their endless questions. It was a wonderful evening thanks to Jacob!
Chef Jacob did an outstanding job. He is brilliant at communicating and I requested all vegan dinner. We discussed my expectations, preferences etc and he sent a menu proposal from which I selected my choices. He delivered stunning food that wowed the crowd. He is talented and extremely personable, so a real asset to your portfolio.
I cannot recommend Jacob more!
From start to finish, Jacob was incredibly professional and kind. Communication was great - shared menu options, had a quick call and we were set. Even when I had to add three guests the night before our event, Jacob was incredibly accommodating. He arrived a bit before the dinner to prep, was friendly and engaging with us (and even our dog Tina)!
Now for the food - five star restaurant quality in your own home. We did the crab & chili beignets and macerated tomatoes for canapés which were a perfect start to the night - and only got better from there. Highlight was the ribeye main - so buttery, probably one of the best ribeyes I’ve had (and I’m from Texas)!
All in all, we’ll definitely be working with Jacob again and will be recommending him to everyone I know - thank you Jacob!
Professional, friendly, really lovely food! Left the kitchen spotless!!
We asked Jacob to do some <a href="https://app.hometainment.co.uk/london/experiences/private-chefs/canapes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration: underline;">canapés</a> for our small wedding reception and we were so impressed. Everything was so delicious and our guests were singing his praises later! The food was exquisite and Jacob was so friendly and professional. If we ever need a <a href="https://app.hometainment.co.uk/london/hometainers/private-chefs" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration: underline;">private chef</a> we will definitely ask Jacob again. We might just make up an excuse to have him cook for us again otherwise!
Jacob was fantastic…… arrived on time, prepared all the fresh produce from scratch…… ❤️
Food was delicious and he has a great,fun personality.
The steaks were cooked to everyone’s liking and that’s no easy task!!!.
I would definitely recommend Jacob and have him again 👌
We had the most perfect evening with Jacob cooking for our event. The food was delicious and as the organiser I've received so many messages about it!! It was truly amazing. Jacob is professional and a really down to earth guy. Thanks for everything!
Jacob was friendly relaxed but professional. Great food and the whole evening went very well
Always a pleasure having Jacob round, so calm, collected and exceptionally polite too. Whenever friends visit the city Jacob is the first person I call as I know his food and presentation never disappoints’
Jacob was a brilliant chef for my dinner party last week. All of the communication up until the event was smooth and transparent - there were plenty of options provided for the menu and Jacob was able to accommodate all my requests with ease. On the night, Jacob was engaging, knowledgeable and he even cleaned up after. I couldn't recommend more highly and will certainly be using Jacob again.
We managed an intimate gathering with professional presentation and service - the food was delicious and Jacob a pleasure to have around
Jacob's communication was one of the reasons I decided on him.
Additionally, he's reasonably priced and his menu showed thought and generosity to client.
He was briefed to be authentically himself, for a fun Executive Leadership (household name) informal BBQ and he did this so well, he was very much part of the evening team of 3 in total supporting.
Food was great and a huge hard worker too.
Jacob was fantastic! He was super helpful and open to creating a menu specific to me and my guests tastes.
The food was phenomenal- some of the best dishes i’ve had in my 4 years living in London. The service is perfect and always with a smile, I can’t wait for my next dinner party with him.
Jacob was amazing to have cook for our event. All the food was so tasty and the presentation was fantastic!
Jacob did a great job and made us feel important from the first communication, which some other chefs hadn't when we were speaking with them.
He was responsive and gave good ideas and suggestions when we spoke, allowing us to make the decisions quickly. He was also flexible when numbers etc changed nearer to the event,
Helping find a server for the day meant we had a lunch that felt extra special and everyone loved the food - with generous portions and good quality food. The lobster risotto was an amazing start to the meal and really set the scene for what followed.
The kitchen was left clean and tidy and the day was a joy.
