Amazing food!
Crystal and her team were amazing! She did horsd’oeuvres, entree, cake, and wine for my micro wedding and everything was perfect. Seriously some of the best food I’ve tasted in a long time! She offered plated dishes which were served by her team. The cake was gorgeous! I can’t say enough good things about Chef Crystal!

Highly Recommend Personal Chef Crystal for your wedding catering needs!
Highly recommend Personal Chef Crystal as your wedding caterer! Crystal was amazing to work with from start to finish. Responsive, timely, knowledgeable, and communicative. She curated a span of menu options based on our list of desires, pricing, and dietary needs. She was flexible based on our needs, and made the decision to work with her a no-brainer. Her prices were fantastic too- especially for the quality of both the service and the meal. The food itself was amazing! We had family members still commenting 3 days later on how great Crystal's food was. Her team delivered the food right on time and ready to go. We decided to serve buffet style- she provided very generous servings per person. She ensured we had everything we needed to have a successful event- going above and beyond. So thankful for the opportunity to work with her- highly recommend for those in the Carmel/ Monterey region!
