Booked the menu From the Contemporary Kitchen with Chef Autumn in Indian Trail

If we could have Chef Autumn come cook every single night we would! We did the Contemporary Kitchen cooking class to celebrate our anniversary at home and it was truly one of the best meals Iâ€™ve had in awhile! Chef Autumn is so kind, talented & it felt like we had known her for years! I cannot recommend enough! 100/10 stars! It was amazing!!!

Booked the menu Classic Asian Takeout with Chef Autumn in Charlotte (Providence)

This was a birthday gift to my 13 yr old son who loves to cook. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening learning how to prepare some amazing Chinese dishes that Autumn made with lots of practical advice and time-saving recommendations. The experience was even better than I expected, and we will look for opportunities to work with Autumn again!

Booked the menu Modern French Bistro Fare with Chef Autumn in Sherrills Ford

We had Autumn's Modern French Bistro Fare and it was soooo yummy! The goat cheese and caramelized onion puff pastry tart was flakey and beautifully balanced. The hangar steak wonderfully tender and paired perfectly with the parsnip puree and broccolini which our taste buds loved. Finished off with the Chocolate pot de creme with espresso cream and candied pistachios, rich and decadent. The espresso cream topping had such a light hint of espresso that even this coffee hater thought it was fantastic! Such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be coming up with more excuses to have Autumn back for wonderful meals in the future!

We had the absolute best experience with our private chef! She came to our home and guided our group of six through an incredible, hands-on cooking experience. Together we prepared a fresh panzanella salad, Parisienne gnocchi, shrimp scampi, and the most amazing bourbon caramel bread pudding. From start to finish, she was extremely knowledgeable and fully prepared. What we appreciated most was how personally she interacted with our group. She didnâ€™t just throw instructions at us, she truly coached us through every step, making sure we felt confident and comfortable along the way. She created such a relaxed, fun atmosphere that made the entire evening feel special. The final dishes were absolutely delicious, and the overall experience was truly top tier. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an intimate, elevated, and interactive dining experience at home!

Autumn did an outstanding job. She's a great chef and is exploring new options. She has a great presence and interacted well with our group. Would have loved more hands on, but the meal and experience was good.
