“My family and I are extremely pleased with Luleta’s Personal Chef
service. Her attention to detail and willingness to cater to the varying needs of our family
does not go unnoticed.  She welcomes feedback and tries to please my youngest
son, a fussy eater and great critic. We are thrilled with her meals and
especially enjoy her banana breads and blueberry muffins.

Thank you Luleta for the nutritious meals and leaving our kitchen sparkling clean!”

“We would recommend My Secret Chef to anyone! We give Luleta 5 stars! When I first contacted her for my 1-year wedding anniversary, I was apprehensive at what the cost would be - but to my surprise it costs just as much as going out for dinner to a fine dining restaurant. The food was vibrant and fresher then any restaurant. Luleta paired all the flavors together; from the beautiful caramelized onion appetizer with crème fraiche, to the palate refresher, right down to the main course. My husband’s sweet potato soup recipe that I gave her, she made better then my husbands! My husband was very, very surprised when he walked in the door. Luleta helped with every detail to make a magical and wonderful evening for us both. Her warm and caring personality comes through everything she does from the moment you contact her about your special event until the night is over. She leaves your home looking and smelling better then it did before she came; you would never know she was even there. Thank you Luleta for making out 1 year wedding anniversary so very, very special.”

“Thank you so much for the magnificent meal that you prepared for us. We found both the sea bass and the lamb to be wonderful while everything else from the soup, to the vegetables to the dessert were delicious. It was so nice to have someone else prepare such a great meal in our home while we were able to spend time with our friends. We also enjoyed your company throughout the evening. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it and we would highly recommend you to others. Thank you again.”

She planned every detail impeccably and impressed everyone with her exceptional gourmet cooking and artistic presentation.  Luleta allowed us to enjoy being host and hostess while she did the preparation, cooking and serving efficiently.  Her warm, cheerful, upbeat manner enhanced everyone’s enjoyment of the evening.  We look forward to having Luleta be our “chef extraordinaire”again for our next special event.”

“The birthday dinner you prepared for us was fabulous!!  The table setting and presentation were beautiful.  My husband and I enjoyed all of it from the quail salad to the black sea bass.  The wild blueberry mini upside down cake was an exquisite ending to a wonderful meal.  Who knew one could experience such fine dining at home. We highly recommend My Secret Chef!!”

LABOUR OF LOVE

"When you watch Luleta in a kitchen you know immediately that you have the privilege watching an artist working in her studio and creating art. Being an artist requires knowledge about the process of creation, the tools needed, and the quality of product/ingredients  used. Luleta, being the artist in the kitchen, embraces slow cooking based on fresh products, delivered by seasons, from local markets, her own garden and well researched (and tested) specialty stores.

Tasting Luleta’s culinary creations is a wholesome experience which is extremely hard to describe.  How does one describe sensations in one’s body when looking at exquisite painting or sculpture?

What kind of expressions does one need to capture the touch of incredible music?

I can definitely say that once you witness Luleta in her studio you know you have encountered an Artist who loves creating her art and, once it is spiced up by love, sharing it with people.
Loving people is part of it as well.  Her art is an expression of love for people as they find themselves feeling nourished, nurtured and deserving the freshness of a symphony of colours and flavours.
I feel so privileged to be exposed to Luleta’s love in action.
Exquisite Artist!
Incredible Chef!
Extraordinary Woman!
Beautiful Human Being"

“It’s a joy to write a testimonial when it comes straight from the heart, with full conviction and without reservation.

“The dining experience by Luleta is unforgettable and wholesome!  Luleta is a Goddess—experiencing her cooking is transcending us to spiritual experience of blessings, pure joy and love!

Starting with the purest and freshest seasonal ingredients our senses are awakened!  She creates celebration of senses with her cooking, through touch and texture, beautiful visual presentation, frequent sounding of movement and dynamics, and most importantly heavenly taste.

I have been privileged to dine with the chef on many occasions. I taste my memories and remember them as a full sensory celebratory expression of passion and love! 
She can make basically everything!  I actually remember my first meal created by Luleta...  She made her famous fish cakes and mango salsa for appetizer as we sipped Jamaican cocktail she made from scratch.  The cakes were hot and crispy and just a perfect bite with frequent fresh mango salsa…A feast for the palate, the eyes and the heart... Yes I would have been perfectly happy if this on its own was my meal!  Was I ready for a surprise, next came sweet potato soup; it was harvest and Luleta picked them up at her local organic farm...Sweetened and thickened with fresh coconut milk and freshly grounded spices, I ate it very slowly savouring every drop...My energy was lifting and I was feeling warmed and happy...A bottle of perfectly matched wine from Niagara region that Luleta suggested I purchase was opened. (To my shock it was delicious; the pairing was perfect, I am a French wine snob and I loved it!).

For the next part she made wild mushroom crepes…she let me clean the mushrooms (for a moment only, I was not doing the best job with them...)—I knew I visited heaven when I ate them...they tasted like the forest…so pure—with fresh herbs, arugula and chevre—it was perfection served with a salad of crisp leafy lettuce, yellow cherry tomatoes and chives, with a kick dressing. It was heavenly! It melted all the stress I carried. It was an experience of full joy and love.

Luleta finished this heavenly experience with her freshly baked zucchini loaf and ice cream and a pot of heavenly coffee. It was a meal that I will never forget...A meal for the soul.  Thank you Dear Chef.”

I meant to send this sooner. Even though it has been a few weeks since you prepared that wonderful birthday dinner, the tastes and flavors still resonate with me. Your creativity was an exceptional treat! I am still salivating from what you prepared!

The caramelized onions tartlet with crème fraiche appetizer was terrific; it stimulated my palate in excited anticipation for the main course, which was a perfectly prepared rack of lamb. My favorite dessert food is crepes. Your crepes with fresh berries and orange brandy jus were to die for. I had to restrain myself from licking the plate. The presentation was impressive. The high quality of the food came through. A fantastic and unforgettable meal!

Well versed in quality food and its preparation, I was pleasantly intrigued with your offering of familiar and new ingredients. I was especially pleased with the emphasis you placed on using only fresh quality ingredients for the meal.

Also your professional and engaging personality was a bonus and added that extra touch to the food and the service. You did an amazing job. Thank you My Secret Chef! I will definitely recommend your services.
