How the Service Works

My service is for busy people who want to eat healthy, tasty meals without out having to take the time out from their busy schedule to prepare the meals themselves. I will consult with you in your home and determine what you enjoy eating and what dietary needs you have.

After our meeting, I will create a two-week menu of entrees and side dishes from my large collection of recipes. After your approval of the menu, we will schedule a cooking day.

On the day I come to cook for you, I will shop for the ingredients for your meals, purchasing the finest ingredients available. After shopping, I will come to your home and prepare your meals using my equipment. After I am done, I'll leave the kitchen immaculate

Testimonials

Thanks very much for the wonderful food -- your Chinese Chicken Salad was excellent, possibly the best I've ever had. The whole meal was very nicely presented, and much enjoyed by everybody.

Good luck, and let me know how things go,

Dr. Cassie Conley, Scientist Nasa

My husband and I have used Taste for Your Buds on two occasions now. One occasion was for my mother's 80th birthday and again for our wedding. Robert Holman's professional expertise in catering was spectacular. Not only was the food delicious, which everyone raved about, but his staff was exceptionally kind and courteous to our family members, some of whom needed special assistance in being served.

To Whom it May Concern:

Please let this testimonial letter serve as both an introduction to and a recommendation for A TASTE FOR YOUR BUDS, Catering and Personal Chef Services.

This past November 2003, I had the opportunity to meet Robert Kent Holman when I contracted with him for his Personal Chef Services. While surfing the web for a unique birthday gift for my husband, I found an advertisement for “A Taste for Your Buds”. At last the perfect gift for-the-man-who-has-everything… a Gift Certificate for a French meal! Within minutes, Robert contacted me and we were engaged in the details of this gala birthday affair. Robert’s customer service is excellent and surprisingly refreshing. His French cuisine recommendations were creative and exceptionally delicious.

“A Taste For Your Buds” provided:

  • Food shopping for my special meal
  • Provided his own cooking materials
  • Cooking done in my kitchen
  • Meal Served – course by course
  • Kitchen Clean-up

It was Robert’s efforts and attention to detail that made the birthday dinner very special for my husband and our guests. And, this is the first time I’ve ever had the luxury of napping in the afternoon before dinner guests arrive. This was heaven!

I would strongly recommend the services of Robert Holman to anyone wanting to entertain friends or loved ones for a special occasion in the comfort of their own home. In fact, Robert’s cooking is on par with that of some of the finest restaurants in which I’ve dined. I would heartily recommend his services to anyone.

Should you ever wish further information or details you may email me at williams92@llnl.gov.

Sincerely,

Beverly Williams
