A pleasure to hire .... Chef Kelly prepared wonderful foods for our bridal shower and taught us so many neat tricks. A very efficient and organized person , he made the night very enjoyable . Balancing between his instruction , prepping and serving he managed a room full of women and what was going on , very nicely. We would welcome him back anytime.

Last evening Chef Ben Kelly prepared and served a delicious Mediterranean, meal . He arrived with everything he needed only thing I had to supply were the plates and cutlery. Afterward he cleaned up the kitchen was spotless. This was our first girls dinner with Chef Ben it won’t be our last! We recommend booking Ben for a dinner you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Chef Ben Kelly .

Chef Ben exceeded my expectations on my birthday. He professionally cooked for me and three other guests in my backyard. He was prompt, friendly, sharing and most of all the food was fantastic. I could not have asked for a more perfect day. Thanks again Chef Ben.....

I’ve hired chef Ben on two occasions. The first was for a 6-person bachelorette cooking class. Chef Ben worked with me to create a unique menu that suited the needs of our group size and experience level. Moreover, the food was perfect for the setting of our class (cottage), and was a hit with all of the attendants. He arrived on time and with all required ingredients/cooking utensils. He was patient with our group; a few errors were made on our part! The best part was that Chef Ben even did the clean up while we ate (this can sometimes be the daunting part about cooking)! The food was delicious, and we were given a copy of the recipes to make after the class, which was a great bonus! Each individual left wanting to hire Chef Ben for another event or class down the line... And so, immediately following the bachelorette experience I decided it would make sense to hire Chef Ben again when my mom was in town the following week. Again, Chef Ben was extremely flexible with timings and easy to communicate with. He created three menu options which all sounded amazing. He offered flexibility with the menus and insisted I let him know if any of the food items weren’t what we were looking for. On the day of the class, Chef Ben even helped to modify some of the menu to ensure everyone in the group was able to eat the food. My mom was thrilled and thoroughly enjoyed herself. We prepared food for a group of four, and it was so nice to be in the comfort of our own home eating a restaurant-quality meal with no dishes, and no need to drive home at the end of the night. I highly recommend hiring Chef Ben for your next event, be it private catering, or a cooking class. You will be impressed by the seamless service he provides and the professionalism he exudes in the kitchen. Be prepared to learn more than just a set of recipes; you will also take home valuable cooking skills and tips which is priceless for the future. I cannot recommend him enough!!! Thank you for making both of these events such a great experience! Already trying to decide the next time to hire you!

Oh. My. Goodness. The meal that Ben and his team prepared for our daughter's wedding was absolutely spectacular! And they did it at her house and served about 50 people in the backyard tent. No rubber-chicken wedding fare that night! I've never had such a delicious meal at an event of that size. Actually, it may be one of the best meals I've had in a long time anywhere. Chef Ben Kelly and his team were outstanding. Applause applause!!

Ben came to our house to do a small dinner party and we couldn’t of been more pleased. He was so easy to get along with and has such a great personality for this job. The food was amazing but beyond that he was organized, reliable and so humble. We couldn’t be happier with our first time experience with Ben! Do yourself a favour and book this guy!

I was planning to host a dinner party for family coming from out of town. I wanted to try something different that included me not in the kitchen the whole time. I had been following Chef Ben on Insta so I reached out. Ben was fantastic to work with and I would definitely recommend him. I asked for a Greek menu and wow, did he deliver. Having a private chef at a dinner party is a cool experience for your guests too. They can ask questions and watch the courses being prepared. Hands down it was such an awesome time! Thank you Ben, can’t wait for our next foodventure!!
