We had a great experience with Matt as an in-home chef for our wedding weekend. His price was very reasonable and I love that he prioritizes sourcing food locally and has a real passion for it. The food was amazing and everyone had a great time!

Matt made us a delicious Mexican dinner. Amazing taco salad and the most delicious burrito. 10/10 would recommend!!
NYE with Chef Matt Wow! What can I say? Chef Matt provided a delicious NYE & 40th birthday celebration for 16 of us! He developed an outstanding kids menu for the kid guests that they all raved about (and they are a picky crowd). The adult menu was perfection. Everything was not only beautiful but also delicious. Matt was so easy to work with- he was flexible and even up for a challenge. When the house we were renting at Okemo had the oven go out- he came up with a great plan to utilize some air fryers and the party was saved. He made us the most memorable night and did everything from start to finish including leaving the kitchen spotless. I can’t recommend Matt enough - we all felt truly spoiled and memories of this special night we will have forever.
Matt prepared a perfect meal for our “girls golf getaway “. His plated presentation was inviting and the food was scrumptious. We would definitely hire him again.
I am writing to share with you a positive experience I had with Vermont Foodie Stand, Matt, he provides a delicious, custom and accommodating meals for myself and 6 other females that have a palate for food. In working with Vermont Foodie Stand, Matt, I recall this past weekend, May 2021. I remember explaining that there was a slight vegan, seafood and lactose allergy. He was able to modify on the go and custom meals to accommodate each guest. Upon the initial meeting of Matt and his young assistant Nate they have always been readily open to change and friendly. The meeting of two minds building custom meals. In addition to the meal preparation and planning in the rental home, Matt as a personal chef was a delight. My dealing with him and his staff has given me cause to state the following: 1. That we view him with respect as he has shown that he is responsive to change. 2. That he is doing everything with amazing professionalism. I hope you will readily see the merit of this review and will act accordingly. As I am highly recommending Vermont Foodie Stand for your most intimate or grandeur social events.
Chef Matt cooked a private dinner for my group on our weekend away and everything was delicious! We didn’t want to go to a restaurant as a group since we were all covid tested and wanted to stay safe, so having a private dinner at home was perfect. Highly recommended!
Matt was a tremendous help from the start. I had arranged for him to cater a small dinner of 5 people as a gift and we went though the several menu options. He worked with me on what I wanted and offered his expert input. He offered a very fair price, showed up on time, and the meal was a big success! Thank you again, Matt!
Would highly recommend!!!! Matt was very responsive from the time I reached out to the time he arrived! We were all very happy with how punctual and nice he was! He made us an AMAZING three course meal! The flavor and the presentation of the dishes were absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend him for your next event!
Matt was so friendly and easy to work with. He was so knowledgeable of the origins of his farm to table food choices, and created dishes that were outstandingly delicious and pretty to look at! He took all of our food requests and diet options into consideration and we appreciate that so much. We can't wait until the next time we go away for the weekend in the area so we can hire him to feed our taste buds and full our bellies!!! Great job :)
Chef Matt was just incredible!! To start, he was very responsive and professional. I was looking for a personal chef for a small, private birthday celebration and he was very accommodating - just a pleasure to work with and plan the day’s menu with. Check out his Instagram page/portfolio (Vermontfoodiestand) - just one beautiful dish after another. And they taste as amazing as the look! Chef Matt created a wonderful brunch with omelettes, crepes, meats, muffins, fruits - and a few surprises! All fresh and farm to table. Later in the day a beautiful charcuterie platter with Jasper Hill VT cheeses and meats and then dinner! We are still in heaven over the dinner - A Boston Bibb salad to start with butternut squash, pomegranate, VT chèvre, Apple cider vinaigrette And then pan seared and roasted pork chops (cooked to tender and delicious perfection) over VT cheddar cheese grits with apples, candied walnuts, acorn squash, red Swiss chard, maple jus. YUM!! Birthday dessert was incredible Root beer floats, Orange Julius and a cupcake display! Sailor Jerry and apple spice and chocolate pumpkin spice. And a final wonderful surprise - mulled cider. Everything just perfect. We found him reasonable for the quality of his work and attention to detail. He left the kitchen spotless. And we will definitely hire him again. What a find! Don’t even think twice about it. You are in for a culinary treat!
