Nicole is a talented and highly efficient chef who makes some very tasty food. She is able to make just about anything you ask for, across all different cuisines, and is able to accommodate dietary restrictions and nutrition plans while also cooking 4-5 meals in under 2 hours. Nicole will do the shopping for ingredients, too, which is a huge time saver! It's a testament to Nicole that her customers, myself included, continue to book her months in advance.

Reviews
I asked her to teach me several ways to cook chicken, which she did: on the stove, in the oven and in a slow cooker. She was on time and had skills as a cook. I didn't really like how salty the food was or how much oil was used. I think it could have been improved if we had had a conversation in advance instead of just emailing. So I'd suggest that as a possible way to go in the future. Also, i didn't get the shopping list until the day before, which didn't give me much time to get all the food and necessary cooking tools.
Nicole was great to work with. Flexible with our schedule and her availability, also with her menu, she made us some amazing food, a nice variety, was very responsive, and left the kitchen in good condition. Also the food was clearly labeled, all around a great experience
Nicole came to our house and prepared a week’s worth of food for my family. She was responsive, collaborative and her food tasted great!
Great food and fun for a small group of teen girls. Thank you!
I utilized Nicole’s meal prep offering and was very content with the service. She allowed me to customize the meals to my preference and was efficient when it came to preparation, storage and cleaning up after.
Nicole is great!!! You can either provide recipes you want to try or she’ll give you suggestions. The food has been great!!! She cleans up and does the shopping for you which is a huge puts the food in what ever container or set up you want! It’s very easy to get in touch with her to. I Wish j had photos but definitely worth the money.
Nicole taught us how to cook and prep our own meals. We wanted to cook at home for health instead of ordering out every day, and we finally achieved our goal. We tried to YouTube recipes and whatnot before Nicole, and we were getting overwhelmed by the sheer number of ingredients and steps and whatnot. Nicole taught us tricks to prep food and reuse them and how to segment the work / multitask as to not get overwhelmed, all while making delicious food. Highly recommend Nicole!
We had a cooking lesson with Nicole and had an amazing experience! Nicole taught us a lot of new, healthy recipes, cooking skills and versatile ways to approach meal prepping. Nicole walked us through everything while we prepped. Overall the experience was incredible and we are so thankful that we found her for our lesson. I would absolutely recommend Nicole if you're looking for a personalized cooking lesson. We had so much fun!
Asked for a review before we had a session. She is extremely booked and will only fit you in between her regular clients. It will take up to 2 months or longer to get in. Also will only communicate thru email. Asked several times to use text and said she can only use email because there was too much information. Unfortunately I don’t have a review for her actual cooking.
Nicole was a tremendous addition to a special birthday celebration meal for my partner and 8 guests. She was prompt, helpful, and a wonderful chef who made the night that much more enjoyable. She took time to think through the menu and prepared everything so well.
Nicole is your go-to person for meal prep, all the way to learning the basics of cooking. She taught me to cook, from buying groceries to deciding the menu to conducting a cooking class at home. Nicole was enthusiastic, and the perfect blend of direction and flexibility made us comfortable. She has a keen ability to connect with people and makes them feel at ease, creating the ideal learning environment. Nicole is warm and welcoming, and she is warmed and welcomed to our home. I unequivocally recommend Nicole for any of your cooking needs. She is a rare gem.
Nicole is a fantastic Chef! We have been using her for a couple of months now - her food tastes great and her menu is fully customizable! Thanks for feeding our family Nicole!
Nicole was great! My husband and I had a cooking lesson with her. We learnt how to make vegan lasagna, vegan eggplant parm and black bean burgers. From the start we found her to be very responsive. She gave us list of things we needed a couple days before. She got all the groceries and pantry essentials that we didn’t have at the time. It was super fun working with her. We learnt so many great tips and tricks in cooking. She guided us through the entire process of making the dishes. She taught us essentials of meal prepping, how timing and planning is important. We loved her teaching and cooking style. She made cooking feel so effortless. We finished all the cooking and cleaning in less than 2 hours. All our dishes turned out amazingly delicious. The lasagna was so delicious that we couldn’t wait to dig in! I highly recommend Nicole and would definitely work with her again!!
We hired Nicole to help our daughter learn to cook some vegan meals. Nicole met her at the grocery, then they came back to our place to cook. In 3 hours we had 3 delicious meals prepared, stored, and the kitchen cleaned up. It was impressive! Nicole took great care to organize this beforehand, so everything would work efficiently and to really suit the needs of my teenager: for instance, the two of them emailed and planned the meals based on taste and preference. I can’t say enough about how helpful this was, how lovely Nicole was, and how valuable the lesson was. Highly recommend.
Chef Nicole prepared my husband and me a delicious meal in our home.
Nicole was great. Prepared a wonderful birthday dinner for my sister and her husband. Followed directions and made them feel very comfortable in these troubled times. It would be a pleasure to work with her again
I hired Nicole as a 30th birthday gift to my wife. I thought it would be fun to have a personal cooking lesson and learn some different vegetarian recipes. Nicole communicated very well, was very professional and came very prepared; brought everything we needed including the ingredients. We had a great time!
Before our meeting Nicole stayed in contact with me to insure I was a part of her process. I was able to approve the menu, and make changes if need. I was also given a CHOICE of buying my own ingredients or letting her shop for me. Nicole arrived on time, and ready to cook. I was very happy that she took time to educate me on the process, and ingredient choices, she was very nice, and professional. We made enough meals for a week! Delicious, healthy, plant based, home cooked meals! My husband (avid meat eater) came home and devoured dinner. Thank you Nicole for opening my eyes to plant based alternatives that taste amazing!
Nicole is definitely a keeper. Right from the start, was quick to respond to my request and absolutely no procrastination on her end at all. She made sure to call me, explain how she works, and a week before my cooking date was quick to check in with me and communication was open & quick. She made some amazing delicious Keto meals for us. It’s was so helpful for us since I have an adult disabled son who required a lot of care. So having these meals prepped helped out a ton. The meals surpassed my expectations a I thought I might not like one or two things, just because it was my 1st time working w/her but NOPE. Every single bite of each meal was amazing.
