We hired Ember D'Or for a big family gathering of around 60 people at a venue. Josh was very professional, punctual and responsive throughout the planning stage. Josh executed our full menu so well. For your reference, our menue was more than three appetizers, two platters of veggies, meat and cheese and one fish dish and one meat dish for main entrées along with three side dishes and chocolate fondue as a dessert. Literally every single food was delicious and presentation was amazing. Many guests were amazed by both taste and presentation of the foods and of course I received so many complements over the food! This is the reason why I hired Josh for this gathering and he exceeded my expectations! Thank you Josh for making this event so special and delivering the best service in every regards! More...

I have been working with Josh on several occasions. He is amazing, his food is amazing
What’s your signature dish?
My signature dish is my Wagyu ribeye with truffle butter and red wine jus. It’s simple in concept but executed at a very high level—perfectly cooked Wagyu, balanced richness from the truffle, and depth from the jus. It really represents my style: refined, indulgent, and detail-focused.
