Customer Reviews

Chef Nils is fantastic! He is an artist and food is his medium. His level of professionalism, his creativity, the attention to detail all come through in everything he does. I’m looking forward to working with him again. 1
Chef Nils catered a personal event of ours a few weeks ago and we still think about that meal! You can tell he has a passion for cooking, and we were stoked to see his creative use of locally sourced ingredients. We did not do a wine pairing, but might consider it next time. Am trying to convince my office to replace our boring lunch caterers!
