Lena’s food is absolutely delicious! My husband is gluten and dairy free and she has had no problem handling his dietary restrictions. The menus she creates are creative, varied and incorporate flavors from many types of cuisines. She uses high quality and fresh ingredients and the dishes change with the season. She is truly a pleasure to work with as well – such a lovely and kind person and very responsive to our ideas and feedback. I would highly recommend working with Lena for your private chef services!
