I LOVE Your Gourmet Chef. Claudia really knows how to put flavors together and her Artichoke Lasagna is soooo good! I highly recommend her to cater your next party. You will be just as thrilled as I was.

Claudia takes the time to source the best ingredients and prepares true to form the types of dishes from the country you have requested. It was Italy in the case.I have known her for a few years she is delight to work with and she always exceeds expectations for any client, as was the case this past Sunday for my friends house warming party.You are always my first choice.Don Ward, owner, Taylor Tasting Tours, Seattle

Our enchanting afternoon yacht cruise, on Lake Washington, curated by the remarkable Chef Claudia of "Your Gourmet Chef," was nothing short of magical. I simply must gush about the lamb chops, which were divine, and a true testament to Chef Claudia's culinary wizardry. They melted in our mouths with each succulent bite, leaving us craving more long after they were gone. And then there was the cypress salad, a delightful surprise that added a burst of freshness to our feast, showcasing Chef Claudia's ability to balance flavors and textures masterfully.What truly made this experience unforgettable was Chef Claudia's radiant personality. Her warmth and infectious enthusiasm turned our dining into an unforgettable celebration. It felt like we were welcomed into her own home, and her genuine passion for her craft added an extra layer of flavor to every dish.The halibut dish was another masterpiece, perfectly cooked and adorned with a medley of fresh herbs that danced on our taste buds. And let's not forget the grand finale - a molten lava cake that was pure decadence. Its velvety, oozing center was a sweet note to end our night of culinary splendor.In closing, our time with Chef Claudia and "Your Gourmet Chef" was a heartfelt experience. From the delectable lamb chops to Chef Claudia's radiant personality, the divine halibut, and that unforgettable molten lava cake, every moment was a testament to her culinary prowess and the warmth she brings to her craft. If you're searching for an authentic, heartwarming culinary journey, don't hesitate to entrust Chef Claudia with your dining dreams.

Claudia catered for an event of mine that had 70+ people. She had amazing communication and made the entire process so simple. Claudia showed up extra early on the day of and had everything under control. She also made clean up so easy.She made gourmet handmade caesar salad with handmade dressing, hand made pasta for the lasagnas (meat and vegetarian option with artichoke & spinach), and Tiramisu for desert. It was all absolutely delicious and her prices were very reasonable.Above all else- she is such a fun and kind-hearted human. The type of person you can trust to do the right thing, and who goes above and beyond to help her clients. It’s clear she loves what she does and the people she serves.Thank you Claudia!!!

Best decision I made for my baby shower! All of the food was delicious and displayed beautifully. I was looking for a fun experience, and Claudia and her partner we're able to have fun cooking and serving for guests. Afterwards, everything was cleaner than they arrived and all leftovers were meal prepped for when baby arrived. Extra points for stellar communication.

I had the most enjoyable dinner evening this last weekend with Chef Stritmatter who prepared dinner for 14 of us celebrating my cousin's birthday. I have had the pleasure of utilizing personal chefs previously so was able to compare preparation, quality of the ingredients, presentation and clean up. The salad and accompaniments had me taking much more time than usual to savor the ingredients, the Cioppino was prepared with the freshest ingredients and time was taken to ensure the live shellfish had the sand and grit flushed out prior to their inclusion. The Chocolate Souffle was almost sinful in its' decadence. Although a friend had made the recommendation of this Chef, I will undoubtably utilize her in the future for my own events.

I greatly appreciate all Claudia's hard work. She mixes art and science to make a wonderful culinary experience. I know Claudia put her heart and sole into her work and it showed! Our event raved about the food and the attention to detail.

Claudia catered a friend’s birthday on Sat and by my count there were at least 4 categories of eaters/diet. With vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian and meat dishes, there was a wide selection for all tastes. It was the second time I had her squash soup and I’m going back for more!

Chef Claudia was an absolute pleasure to work with. I explained what I wanted and with her input and ideas, she brought to life a vibrant display of elevated “snacks” for my boss and his guests. I look forward to working with her again in the future! Thank you, Claudia!
Katie Holtman
The BEST! Claudia was very responsive, informative and prepared us the best meal ever with very little guidance from us. All of the guests and myself were raving about the food for days! I wish I had more photos to share ?
The protein guacamole, artichoke lasagna, & vegan lettuce wraps are to die for! Reasonably priced “home cooked” meals. I love love love. Would recommend to everyone! There’s something for everybody on the menu. The chocolate lava cakes melt in your mouth. Order now!!
