Excellent Personal Chef Service

by EggMom007 at Citysearch

We have been consistently happy with our personal chef service. Chef Heather is an amazing cook and a wonderful person. After the birth of our second child I needed a way to feed healthy meals to my family. I was overwhelmed with the care of my children and had no time to even think about preparing dinner. Thanks to Chef Heather I do not have to shop, chop, and prepare dinners anymore and this service allows me to spend the precious little free time I have with my family! Chef Heather is extremely professional and makes amazing food. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family and her prices are extremely reasonable. Enjoy!

Best gift I ever gave!

by SueEarle at Citysearch

I wanted to give my busy, stressed-out, pregnant daughter-in-law something that would REALLY help her. Black Radish to the rescue! Chef Heather Mader showed up with a 2-week, family-oriented package of meals that has been praised for both quality and quantity. Now, my daughter-in-law can go off to work in the morning and know that dinner will be ready when she gets home. And, for me, the price point was a welcome surprise. I expect to use Black Radish again and again.

Great Vegan food!

by lizole at Citysearch

This was our first time using a personal chef service. What a treat having delicious and healthy Vegan food prepared for us for the week ahead! The Jicama salad, the Indian curry, and the special huckleberry cobbler were the first casualties of our appetites. We have not enjoyed eating at home like this in years. Thank you Heather!

Amazing Food! Amazing Service!

by iylarose at Citysearch

Being an extremely busy working mom I was having such a hard time with having dinner at home (we were eating out at least 3-4 times per week). I am so thankful we have found Chef Heather, I get off of work and come home to wonderful, healthy meals that my whole family enjoys. I also get more quality time with loved ones since I am not spending time at the grocery store or cooking! Heather is an amazing chef and takes the time to make sure everyone in my family is happy with the meals she cooks. I would recommend Chef Heather to anyone that is looking for healthy, amazing meals for themselves or their family.

Incredible food, even better service, overall FANTASTIC!

by erigiand at Citysearch

Heather helped us put on a surprise party. The party was for adults and children. Heather prepared food that was fantastic and very appealing to the eye. The kids loved her food as well. She was super organized, had everything prepared ahead of time and the party was a smash! This will not be the last party Heather does for our company and we would recommend her to anyone for any situation.

  • Pros: Incredible food

Chef Heather here - thanks for the kind words about the party. I can't wait to do the formal, seated holiday dinner party in December for your company! With Braised Shortribs over Garlic Mashed Potatoes as the show-stopping main course, and a decadent Chocolate Oblivion Truffle Torte for dessert - its going to be fun!

best onion tart, great steak and salmon

by nanphillips at Citysearch

Chef Heather and her staff created a fabulous dinner for 30 people. The hors d'voures were delicious as were the main entrees. The entire dinner was a treat, especially the onion tart, steak and salmon. We also enjoyed the chocolate brownies and strawberries with creme.

Chef Heather was very professional in the manner she presented the food and in her interactions with the guests. I would highly recommend her.

Exceptional food, superior service all at a great value!!

by caeliridge at Citysearch

Anyone looking for the ultimate in personal chef service won't need to look any further than Black Radish and Heather Mader- Heather was our personal chef for over a year, and in that time our family ALWAYS enjoyed Heather's delicious and healthy meals. I can assure you that Black Radish will exceed your every expectation!!

You can have it all!!

by bonnieod at Citysearch

This is the first time that I have written a review, but I feel that strongly about Chef Mader and all that she offers. As a busy mom with two young children, dinner did not come easy for us. Chef Mader changed that. Imagine this...you don't have to think "what is for dinner?", you don't have to run to the grocery store at the last minute, you have more time with your family, and you sit down to a meal that tastes "out of this world", and is healthy!! Do you know how much time she has given back to me? And I haven't even stressed how great her meals tastes....Extraordinary!! Give a gift to yourself, and your family?call her. You can have it all, time with your family and a great dinner to sit down to.

Best filet ever!!!

by cbonth1 at Citysearch

Hands down the best meal I've ever had! My fiance and I had a Black Radish meal for his birthday, and the steak was so tender we cut it with a butter knife. Unbelievable blue cheese mashed potatoes. The chef is a pro -- she finds her way around your kitchen so you can just relax while she's cooking, and then enjoy the meal. I would recommend this extremely highly to anyone looking for a chef for family meals, catered events, or romantic dinners for two. The chef is extremely creative and very professional. Am recommending Black Radish to everyone I know. Absolutely the best meal ever!

  • Pros: Delicious customized menu, professional service
  • Cons: none
