Yhangry Reviews from verified customers

Food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. Thoughtful planning of the menu to meet our requests and very kind and lovely in person. Would recommend 100%.

Julieann hit the brief right from the start. Feeding fourteen 18yo boys is no mean feat, but Julieann created a menu that got her a standing ovation at the end of the night! It was perfect. The addition of home made focaccia was such a nice touch, and I haven’t seen bread get eaten that quickly in ages! If you are looking for a relaxed, engaging and incredible chef, I cannot recommend Julieann enough.

Marco went above and beyond for the incredible dinner we had. I booked Marco for my 30th birthday dinner with my best girlfriends. Everyone loved the food, how lovely Marco was and whilst we were enjoying the amazing food Marco was cleaning as he went along. At the end of the dinner the kitchen was spotless. I will most defiantly be using yhangry again and booking Marco. Thank you Marco!

Really lovely dinner for a family celebration. Paul prepared scrumptious food for us at our Airbnb. We didn’t have to lift a finger for the entire evening and he made our evening very special

We had a brilliant evening thanks to Katie! Her cooking was incredible - we had the Asian menu which was all cooked from scratch and the portion sizes were very generous. Katie is extremely warm and friendly, we very much enjoyed her company as well as the food. She cleared everything up without leaving a trace behind! Thanks so much for a great evening, we would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of hiring a private chef! X

The issues I would like to raise are as follows: * The chef was not communicative before the event. A number of messages I sent went unanswered. When the chef did reply, I was simply reassured that everything was "100% all in hand", so I took him at his word. * Our final menu to be delivered was never made clear. I had asked for clarifications regarding dietary restrictions (detail below), but these were not forthcoming. I was told "all menu options can be alternated to accommodate all food intolerances and allergies" but it was never made clear exactly how this would be achieved. However, again I took him at his word, assuming that he would make suitable alterations to the menu. * On the day of the event, I heard nothing from the chef. I had to find time to get online to send a message to ask what time the chef would be arriving. I only received an answer 1.5hrs before anyone arrived. * The chef himself did not attend the event. The two people who attended were very nice, but this was not expected or agreed with the chef beforehand. I was expecting the chef I had booked to be there, but he did not. * The chef who did arrive, along with an assistant, was very nervous and anxious. He had difficulty communicating with us as his english was not very good, and also seemed unsure of everything. He did not seem to have enough information relating the dietary requirements I had sent to the chef I had booked with. He seemed unsure about what food he was serving, and had difficulty telling us what it was that we were eating. * I had informed the chef that I had booked with that one diner had a nut allergy that includes pine nuts, and a diner who was pregnant and could not eat certain cheeses. The proposed menu contained pesto (contains pine nuts) and goats cheese (unsuitable during pregnancy unless cooked). I was sure to mention this to the chef during booking more than once, and as I have already mentioned, he simply told me that it was all fine and would be taken care of in the final menu. On the evening, all plates served contained pesto and goats cheese - it was only because we took care to notice this that they were avoided by the diners with dietary requirements. Furthermore, the canapes served were not what was listed on the chosen menu, and one of these also contained hummus (pine nuts) and burrata (unsuitable during pregnancy), so two diners were unable to eat these either. * Having seen the chef who attended and his assistant working in the kitchen, and what they had brought with them, it was clear that almost all the food had been pre-prepared off site and mostly warmed up or plated in our kitchen. The food was ok, but not freshly cooked or prepared. Overall we were disappointed by the quality of what we were served. I know that there is nothing yhangry can do in terms of payment at this stage, but I would appreciate as much help as you can provide in mediating a resolution with the chef. I have messaged him more than once but have so far not received any reply from him. I attach a photgraph of the menu that was served, and can provide all the messages sent and received in communication with the chef in evidence.

Very charming & accomodating chef. Delicious food.

We had a great evening thanks to Kevin! We have a very small kitchen and he was able to create amazing 2 course meal for 9 of our guests.

Excellent evening. Chef Terri was great food delicious
