Five Years Later: A Client’s Love Letter to Our Private Chef Service
‘‘Chloé came to us any of the best gifts in our lives arrive, unexpected and beyond anything we could have dreamed possible.
We had reached the stage of growth where clients and staff were part of lunch and/or dinner as we continued deep conversations over meals. We also have clients who come to work with us from around the world. As our home is in the same building as our offices, it was easy to move down to the dining room. I’m skilled and efficient in the kitchen but once we tallied up our combined hours of prep, cooking, and cleaning, it made no sense.
The night we met Chloé, it was love at first sight. This ‘love affair’ has only grown. Now it is love at first bite – and in fact, every bite. Picture this… we begin with a soft creamy pepper soup to stunned silence as guests cannot believe how good this is-- then I serve Chloé’s slightly tart and sweet crisp beet salad, dotted with goat cheese, and feathered with dill, followed by perfectly moist turkey meatballs perched on angel hair pasta, drizzled with Chloé’s homemade tomato sauce, nestled next to a side of green beans. (sigh…)
It has been four years now that Chloé arrives every Sunday afternoon to make magic. This amazing woman leaves our fridge brimming with some of the most delicious food we have ever eaten. We love everything she creates. I follow the detailed ingredient list she messages each week, but the cuisine choices and combinations are a surprise-- unless we have asked for something specific.
(One problem-- she has ruined dining out for us. Doesn’t matter where in the world we are, or what nationality of food we are eating, Chloé’s take on the dish wins almost every time.)
What makes Chloé unique is not just her experience and skill as a Chef, but her utter commitment to creating goodness in and through food. We are glutton free, diary free, and mostly sugar free. We choose to eat organically as much as possible. And at times we have needed to avoid certain types of food. Sometimes, our guests request special diets. Other times we host large groups. Doesn’t matter-- nothing fazes Chloé. She has huge capacity to deliver above and beyond with quiet, joyful ease.
It is all about Chloé’s passion, combined with a deep understanding of every element and every combination. And it’s about attentive creation in every moment. This is how she lives her love.
Chloé brings love to every moment, creating food that nourishes our bodies and delights our senses.
Chloé is a true artist, using her knowledge, her experience, her intuition, and her gifts to combine colours, textures, with the perfect balances of spices to showcase the inherent goodness of food—and Chloé is all about goodness.’’
