Jason S. says, “Best Thanksgiving ever! Love my new friends, can't wait to have them over again. They did such an awesome job my family is still talking about it.”
Brandon P. says, “I recently worked with Chef Julius over the weekend planning a Retirement Party for my aunt. From start to finish Julius has been a pleasure to work with.
Upon requesting a quote, he got back to me, providing me with a clear proposal and detailed scope of service. His follow up and availability to my every inquiry was handled professionally and without delay.
Upon signing with him, I had additional requests when I've learned of dietary restrictions of a guest. He was quick to accommodate.
On the day of the event, he would keep me updated on arrival time and arrived. He prepared delicious appetizers and entrees, my personal favorite being the beet bruschetta. Also, for his main dish, his lemon pesto was incredible. For dessert lovers, his homemade tiramisu was better than that you'd find in restaurants.
The best part of the experience was just his human-ness. He treated my guest of honor with such grace and throughout the evening spent much of the time chatting with her. He had the punctuality and structure of a larger corporation but felt like an extended member of the family.
The day couldn't have gone more seamlessly and the entire experience was stress free. Appreciate you Julius!”
Melinda H. says, “NOR kitchen provided a private chef experience for my sister’s bachelorette at our AirBnb. I cannot say enough good things about Christiann and NOR kitchen. From the first interaction, Christiann was enthusiastic about my project and transparent about pricing. There were plenty of menu options to choose from and everything they served was exceptional. The bride said “best broccoli I have ever had!” NOR kitchen was more than just great food though, they provided a relaxing, fun experience for guests with paired cocktails and table service. They even deep cleaned the kitchen when they left!
I was especially impressed at their professionalism. The oven at the AirBnb wouldn’t work and they problem solved the issue without our help so we could relax.
10/10 unforgettable! Thank you Christiann and team!”
Jenny W. says, “I had hosted a girlfriends 40th birthday in Malibu and thought it would be a lot easier to have a personal chef come to us than have to find transportation out. I’m so happy I came across The Crain Experience I could not of been happier with my decision. First of all, they were very prompt with responding to all of my questions. Their website has many options to choose from which was probably the hardest decision of all . On the date of the event, Chef Jason and and his assistant Jazz showed up on time and with everything they needed, and got straight to cooking . We started with a large charcuterie board for the group that we all got to graze on while they prepared the dinner. To start we had a garden salad with a delicious dressing. Our main course was filet mignon on top of wasabi mashed potatoes with a side of perfectly cooked asparagus to finish with dessert we had the most delicious banana pudding that everyone loved he even accommodated our gluten-free friend. I could not have been happy with my decision to go with The Crain Experience. I was so happy that we did choose the full catering service because we didn’t have to do anything else like clean a dish or clear the table I’m sure I will be seeing them again, my friends could not have been happier with their meal. Thank you so much for the happy memories and delicious meal.”
Patrycja E. says, “The hibachi chef was not only an amazing cook but an incredible entertainer—everyone was laughing and engaged the entire time. The show was phenomenal, and the food was absolutely delicious.
It was the perfect way to celebrate a 40th birthday with friends and family. The combination of great entertainment, fantastic food, and a fun atmosphere made the evening truly unforgettable. I highly recommend this experience for anyone celebrating a special occasion. We would absolutely book again!”
