Other Infomation
Hello my name is chef Tiana. I am a private chef in the DMV. I am a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America. I have owned several restaurants and have been the private chef to many high profile clientele. Although you have asked for only a few courses, I felt that you and your party should have a true chef experience with multiple courses. The first two courses can be served as a buffet or family style appetizers as your guest walk in the door. We can serve the cheese and charcuterrie board, along with shrimp cocktail or crab cake spoons. We can arrange it so that you have a multiple appetizers to serve your guest. If you should choose to not do a dessert course we can change it so that you have a pasta course instead. As you can see from my reviews on the site and google, I go above and beyond to ensure your event a true success. I would love to speak to you about assisting you in your needs
