Our Reviews
"Hiring a private chef while our four little ones were asleep upstairs was the best decision! Chef Yannick not only cooked and served us, but he also kept us entertained. But the highlight was undoubtedly the quality, taste, and presentation of the delicious dishes, which made the evening feel like dining at a 5-star restaurant. If you want to elevate your vacation experience, we highly recommend Yannick!"

"I wish I could give 5 stars for the food and another 5 stars for Chef Yannick! We had the pleasure of enjoying two meals prepared by him during our stay in Tamarindo. Our welcome dinner was beyond exceptional, and our breakfast left everyone scraping their bowls clean! Yannick was punctual, presented each dish beautifully, and cleaned up in no time. He was professional, resourceful, and always had a big smile. Plus, he has some incredible stories about his culinary journey and the places he has been. Book him—you won’t regret it!"

"Chef Yannick prepared a fantastic meal for us on our first night at Casa Islita in Tamarindo. He came highly recommended by the villa concierge, and he certainly lived up to it. After a long day of travel, we were greeted by Yannick with homemade tortillas, guacamole, fresh salsa, and incredible ceviche that we devoured instantly. For dinner, he prepared a ‘Taste of Costa Rica’ meal for our group of nine. The food was exceptional! Yannick took great care of us, from serving to cleaning up, and even left leftovers for us to enjoy the next day. The booking process through Tabitha was simple, and Yannick was accommodating of our dietary restrictions. Besides being a talented chef, Yannick has a great sense of humor and an easygoing personality. It was the perfect way to start our family vacation, and we’re still talking about that dinner!"
