Chef Amber was a great addition to our trip to Highlands. She reached out to me well ahead of our meal to talk about options and was communicative the entire time. She arrived on time and had everything she needed with her- including flowers for the table and cloth napkins. Her meal was cooked perfectly and plated nicely and she took great care of us. After dinner, she cleaned up and there was no trace of a big meal cooked in the house, other than some full and happy people and some leftovers! Very happy with Chef Amber and her food and service.
Amber was clearly an accomplished chef that took such pride in her homemade sauces and quality of products. The food was insanely good but to top it off, Amber was an amazing person and a fun time to be around. Would highly recommend!
Chef Amber was incredibly talented and extremely sweet! She explained how she was cooking our delicious meal, related to us on a personal level and taught us how to fold napkins into beautiful flowers! She was definitely the highlight of our trip!

Cooking is the only thing I’ve ever really done for work. I happened upon a summer job as a prep cook at the local country club and just never managed to stop cooking. I have participated as the opening Executive Chef for 3 restaurants, I have also consulted for the rebranding and opening of two others. I believe in vibrant, bold, and flavorful food that makes a statement with just a touch of whimsy and some charm to boot. While I enjoy learning and exploring all cuisines, my focus is a healthy combination of Mediterranean and New England/New American, though admittedly, being a Chef in the south, I can make some mean southern food with a colorful twist.
