Let’s talk about last night’s surprise birthday dinner for 2!
Honestly, I love a good surprise meal!!
There’s nothing like seeing someone’s face light up when they realize a private chef is at their door — and an entire evening has been planned just for them.
This birthday feast was filled with her absolute favorites — all inspired by dishes from restaurants she’s loved over the years:
– Whipped ricotta toast (yum!)
– Summer panzanella (double yum!)
– Handmade pasta with mushroom truffle sauce (the lightest pasta I have ever tasted!)
– And the grand finale: molten chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream
As I left for the evening I got the best compliment a chef could ever receive… “I think that might have been the best meal of my life!”
Now that is a good birthday present!! The simple pleasures of the private chef life, creating these glorious moments with food! #suprisechef #privatechef #montecito #santabarbara #birthday
