It was just perfect <3 thanks

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Brandon. His food was delicious and very well presented. We would definitely recommend.

Chef Brandon was great. I hired him for a birthday dinner party for my wife. We had 14 guests total and hosted the party at an Airbnb. So Chef Brandon was working with the kitchen at a random Airbnb we had not been to before. And the food was incredible! Chef Brandon and his team were great. The presentation of the dishes was wonderful. The food itself was fantastic. I received a ton of compliments after the event on the quality of the food. I'd definitely recommend Chef Brandon and would look to hire him again in the future.

This private dining experience is very good, we enjoyed the food and had a pleasant time with the hosts. Brandon is calm, creative and communicative. Recommended.

One word - amazing!!!

My first time engaging Private Chef and I’m lucky to have Chef Brandon taking up my request. Food is super amazing and he is very accommodating to my request on the menu. He is very professional and his love for food shown on the food that he served us. We enjoyed the dinner and I would recommend him to anyone that want to try private dining at home. Will repeat again and thanks Chef Brandon!

I hired Chef Brandon Rodrigues from Take a Chef to cook for us on my husband's birthday. We are an American couple, traveling the world, and staying in a flat in KL for 3 months. We have never before hired a personal chef. The experience was outstanding. Both Chef Brandon and his assistant were exceptional at their craft. They were engaging and interesting and extremely nice. The dishes were beautiful and delicious. My husband was extremely pleased as well. We highly recommend Take a Chef, and Chef Brandon, for anyone who wants a fun, relaxing, delicious experience!

Brandon and his team were great! They were friendly and professional. The dishes were delicious and my family and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Our evening was incredible, the plating was fantastic and the food was amazing. One of the best meals we’ve ever had!

Chef was very professional. His food was enjoyed by all my guests

Brandon provided very good experience with this wonderful dinner. Great taste and excellent food.????????????????????????

Brandon provided a top notch experience. He is personable, professional knowledgeable and above all an artist. We were looking for a learning experience as well as the meal and Brandon was amenable with all of the answers at his fingertips. I can't recommend Brandon highly enough. I also can't think of a way to improve the meal experience, and I am a picky experienced restaurant hand.

Brandon and his team arrived on time for my birthday, which I celebrated with my husband and our 3 children. They cooked an exquisite meal in our rented Airbnb in a good humoured and very efficient manner as previously discussed and served it in a pleasant way. We had a culinary delightful dinner. You can feel how much Brandon loves his job. Kitchen was left spotless. Highly recommended.

This was my first time hiring a private chef and the experience with Brandon and his team as amazing. They really went above and beyond to ensure all the guests had a great dinner. From the setup to the presentation, taste and clean up everything was perfect. Would highly recommend!

Would highly recommend brandon! He is very friendly, and passionate about his job. He explains all the dishes in details :)

Hey there! So, Chef Brandon totally nailed it as our private dining chef. First off, he was super clear in his communication and even gave us some great suggestions to make our Father's Day celebration even better. But wait, there's more! He went above and beyond and customized a special cake for my hubby, and let me tell you, he was over the moon with this surprise. And get this, our 8-year-old son was all curious and watching Chef Brandon work his magic in the kitchen. Chef Brandon, being the awesome guy he is, asked our son if he wanted to help decorate his own dessert. Can you believe that? We had an absolute blast at this private dining experience, and Chef Brandon definitely made it one to remember. Thanks again, Chef Brandon! You rock!

It was an incredible experience booking an evening by Chef Brandon. From the get-go, I applaud Chef Brandon's professionalism in communicating using the website, which gave me extreme confidence in booking with him. He was engaging in understanding my needs with smooth communications through the website and then via whatsapp upon confirmation - as I booked this experience for both my parents birthdays. From his punctual arrival at our house - 5 minutes before the discussed time! To the set up in the kitchen, and ensuring the meal began on-time for the breaking of fast. Presentation of the meals was extremely innovative, engaging. My parents had a wonderful time, with my mother still speaking about his dishes days later! Decided to book this during the month of Ramadhan, which made it extremely comfortable, being able to take a few moments to do prayers in between. Meals were delicious mixture of local delicacies. My parents themselves enjoyed this unique experience in the comfort of their own home. I would highly recommend booking with Chef Brandon! Thank you for this experience.

Our first time to have in house fine dine with "take a chef". Definitely a memorable with my wife valentine and birthday date. Brandon and his assistant jason did a great job for us to enjoy, well explained on the menu and clean our kitchen after session.

The experience was unforgettable! Chef Brandon made amazing dishes, truly something everyone enjoyed. Each dish was so unique and an explosion of flavours. It was the perfect mix between the lovely traditional local flavours and a fresh innovate finishing touch. I highly recommend the chicken masala tacos...phenomenal! This dinner was for my mom's birthday and he made this a wonderful birthday evening for all of us. The chef was attentive, fun, professional and made sure the menu was personalised right down to the last detail! Not only did he serve exquisite food but he went the extra mile to make this a truly memorable experience for my moms birthday and for all of us. There is no doubt that we'd love to have many more private dining experiences with Chef Brandon and his team.

Brandon is an amazing chef. The food presentation is also incredible. I highly recommend him and take a chef services.
