Kim was very easy to work with. She arrived on with a great energy. Her passion for her work is obvious. She made a lovely presentation for our buffet for 20 people. Food was delicious!

My sister and I hosted a 90th birthday dinner for my father. From my initial contact through the completion of the event, Chef Kim was responsive and available for any questions or concerns. Despite a snafu on my part, Chef Kim was able to pivot and handle the situation with professionalism and grace. The table setting was beautiful and the food was delicious. Thank you Chef Kim for helping make my father's birthday memorable.

Kim’s amazing - she was patient when the stove didn’t work for some time and her food was delicious! I’m so glad I found her, my guests enjoyed all their food

Kim was absolutely amazing! She made a fantastic 3 course dinner for my parents anniversary. We started off with a charcuterie board. Our entrees were Peppercorn Flank Steak with scalloped potatoes, and we finished off the night with cheesecake over her homemade crème brûlée pudding. Kim is such a kind and talented chef and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future! Thank you for the wonderful evening you provided for us.

Kim was excellent! My husband hired her as a surprise for my birthday. Her food was absolutely delicious! Everything was cooked to perfection. She even tried out a new dessert, and we were the first to taste it! A fried strawberry shortcake, it was delicious! Kim was professional and kind. It was the perfect gift. Thank you Kim!

I found working with Kim easy to plan event. She planned a beautiful tablescape & menu & executed them wonderfully. She was friendly & professional but not intrusive. The kitchen & dining areas were left in tip top condition.

Hired Kim to cook for my parents as a Chanukah gift, and they can’t stop RAVING about her. They’re already planning for when we can bring her back. Menu was as follows: - Maple Cinnamon Butternut Squash Soup - Braised Short Rib with Sherry Port Reduction over Garlic Mash and Sautéed Asparagus - Creme Brûlée with Salted Caramel Sugar Cookie

Kim did a phenomenal job with my 30th birthday brunch. She was a joy to work with and most of all the food was delicious! I’m from the South and her shrimp & grits were just as good as back home (if not better). My guests also loved the vanilla brioche French toast. I’d recommend Kim Kooks to anyone! I’d love to work with her again in the future. Thank you Kim!!
