Testimonials & Success Stories

We hired Chef Paula and her assistant for a private anniversary dinner at our home and it was honestly one of the coolest experiences ever. We will absolutely do it again. They came fully prepared with everything needed for an incredible Italian meal—fresh ingredients, cookware and even décor. They brought candles, roses for the table, rose petals scattered everywhere, and a beautifully printed menu. It was absolutely stunning. All I had to do was open the door and hand over the kitchen! They handled the cooking, serving, clean-up - everything! We planned for our first course at 6:00 and I literally got a picture of it being served at 6:03. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious!! To top it off, they boxed up allllllll the leftovers for us and left my kitchen spotless! If you’re looking for something unique, romantic and stress-free, I can’t recommend Chef Paula enough!

They took the time to truly understand our preferences and thoughtfully personalized every detail of the menu to suit our tastes. Not only was the quality of the food outstanding, but the level of service and professionalism exceeded our expectations. Every interaction was warm and kind, and it was clear how much care went into every dish. It felt like a truly curated, special experience made just for us. We couldn’t recommend them more highly – a perfect blend of skill, service, and heart. Thank you for making our evening unforgettable!

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Chef Paula Roberta Goncalves in Clearwater, FL for a farewell dinner, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment she arrived, Chef Paula’s warmth and kindness set the tone for a truly special evening. She prepared two delicious starters, two unforgettable entrées, a decadent dessert, and even crafted a custom cocktail for our group of six ladies. Each course was more impressive than the last — beautifully presented, expertly seasoned, and clearly made with love and skill. We were able to completely relax and enjoy our evening, as Chef Paula and her husband took care of everything, including all the cleanup. If you're in the Clearwater area and looking for a private chef, do not hesitate to hire Chef Paula. Her talent, professionalism, and gracious spirit made our gathering one to remember.
