       Chef Yllan did a wonderful job preparing a meal for a joint birthday party of ~30 guests this past weekend. Highly recommend his services. The food was outstanding, he connected us with incredible wait staff that helped our evening run smoothly. Furthermore, Yllan was 100% dedicated to making sure that we had the best experience possible.

      Yllan prepared an incredible meal at our home in Brooklyn for a small wedding celebration. The food was exceptional and the service was flawless. We wouldn't hesitate to book him again for an in-house five star fine dining experience.

      Our dinner at home for 8 people was fantastic. We and our guests have eaten in the best restaurants all over the world and found Yllan's food and service as good or better. We savored every morsel and added our own gran cru wines that the food deserved. We hope to have Yllan back again soon and recommend him to our friends. Expensive but worth it.

      We have worked with Yllan twice and each time the meals were delicious and beautifully plated.  He worked with us each time to put together a great menu. He is very accommodating, professional and a pleasure to work with!
