Marcus was great! He coordinated everything very well, from inquiring about any dietary restrictions to getting our meal delivered. The food was excellent and he even included dessert which we were not expecting. This was a fabulous dinner to kick off our stay in Pasadena

Marcus is an absolutely amazing chef!! We couldn’t stop talking how great dinner was!
Highly recommend.

Ponder was a joy to have in my home. He brought so much personality, creativity, and heart to the evening...and the food was fantastic. We had Southern dishes with French technique woven in, and everything was packed with flavor and beautifully done. The croissant peach pudding was next-level.

He took the time to customize the menu and made sure everything reflected our preferences. He’s someone who clearly loves what he does, and it shows in every detail. My guests were impressed, the vibe was relaxed and fun, and the whole night felt like something special. As an employee of Airbnb, I get to try out new services as a perk. I will book him again.

Chef Marcus was fantastic. He made one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time—creative, thoughtful, and seriously delicious. The salad with seasonal stone fruit was unreal (maybe the best salad I’ve ever eaten), and the dairy-free dessert was so rich and creamy you'd swear it was full of butter and cream, but it was coconut-based. What really made the night special was how Marcus riffed with us—he even worked a local jam I’d just bought into the dessert on the fly. Just an incredible experience all around.
