Khalyne

Was lots of fun. Was great to talk to. He made a great meal in a timely manner and cleaned up everything before leaving. Made a delicious batch of tea and left the rest of the bag of tea leaves for us to enjoy. He reached out ahead of time and offered to pick up other grocery/miscellaneous items we may need at our Airbnb. He even worked with me to reschedule the experience when visa issues delayed my trip a day. Would 100% do again.

Chief Stanley creates a fantastic ambiance with a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. The food him and his team prepared was exceptional, showcasing their culinary skill and attention to detail. Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented, making for an unforgettable dining experience. The tender loin steak slapped major and the deserts were so well presented I almost couldn’t not believe the value for money I got. I highly recommend. Complements to the chef 5/5
