Chef Voltaire's reviews

6 services

It was the 1st time to try Take a Chef .It was a surprise special birthday dinner arranged for my 26th year old daughter. Chef Voltaire and his lovely Sous Chef were paying attention to even the finest of details. It was a lovely surprise for her. The food was out of this world The presentation was an A++ The way Chef Voltaire explained his menu with love and passion was like listening to a melody of creativity infused with flavor and a story. Our experience is best to describe as Authentic Japanese. Filled with the freshest of ingredients, umami flavor and new tastes. From the starter to the dessert, it was all great. Very warm team and always carrying a nice smile . The vibe was so nice .We took pictures while Chef Votaire was in the kitchen. The best comment I heard from my daughter,the birthday celebrant : The dishes are made with love! Thank you Chef Voltaire and as I told you yesterday, it is the 1st time but not the last . I recommend Chef Voltaire 100%, thankyou for being part of a special evening. Thank you Take a Chef.
