    Chef Kevin is amazing! I kind of don’t want to tell y’all about him because I want him available when I’m ready to book again! 🙂 I have hired Chef Kevin twice now for two different dinner parties, and he has gone above and beyond both times. I am about to book his services for a third time for another dinner party. His culinary skills are superior along with his gregarious personality which makes for an enjoyable, entertaining and delicious event for all guests. Chef Kevin is talented and delivers exceptional culinary services as he cooks wonderful, delicious food with quality and unique ingredients and provides his clients with a large variety of menu choices to create custom courses for any occasion. I highly recommend Chef Kevin!! Five star service!! ~April, Rogers, Arkansas

    We just had Chef Kevin at our Vrbo in Bentonville AR. What an incredible dinner and experience. Kevin was great to work with and made sure every details was executed. It was a custom dinner with appetizers and dessert for 15 people. He also made 2 quiches and French toast casserole for a breakfast the next morning that we were able to just heat up. Perfection!!! 10 out of 10 recommend this experience .

    Highly Recommend Chef Kevin!

    We hosted a wedding at the Star Mountain House in Keystone and Chef Kevin catered the reception. He worked with my kids on budget and food allergies and delivered a five star meal. The charcuterie Board he had waiting for guests as they arrived was amazing and included some specialties like pork pate with apple butter and a smoked sausage with bleu cheese. In addition to the amazing food, Chef Kevin was so friendly and took the time to chat with guests as they wondered into the kitchen to observe and ask questions and He went over an above anticipating needs and took around glasses of champagne for the toast so everyone was ready. I would not hesitate to hire this talented chef!

    Thank you for making the reception perfect!

    Chef Kevin is incredibly talented! It is difficult to put into words how special he made our wedding other than to say, you must hire him for your next event. Due to COVID we had to reschedule almost every aspect of our wedding including the location. One of the highlights of the entire weekend was Chef Kevin and his cooking. Our guests were raving about every aspect of the meal from his homemade pasta, the marinade he used on his grilled chicken, all the way to dessert and the homemade cheesecake and creme brûlée’s our guests couldn’t get enough of! He was incredibly professional, his timing was impeccable, and each course of the meal kept getting better and better. It truly felt like we were eating at a five star hotel but from the comfort of home. A true gift/treat during COVID! Leading up to our wedding Kevin was extremely helpful with helping us develop our menu and work around food allergies. On the day of, he arrived on time and left the kitchen cleaner than when he arrived. When it was time for our guests to all travel back home, we were all fighting over the leftovers he had saved in our refrigerator. Thank you for making our wedding night so incredibly special, Chef Kevin! We appreciate you and you were instrumental in making our wedding so memorable.

    kevin was INCREDIBLE. he was so professional and energetic and also prepared one of the most amazing meals i have had the honor to eat. He answered all questions that were asked by my dad, which you may assume there were plenty, and he did so with a smile on his face. he was a joy to watch cook. he made dishes that my father had requested (it was fathers day) so the rest of the family did not know how we would feel about them but let me tell you, they were AMAZING. we will Definitely be using kevin again and again each time we come to the area.

    We just finished a family reunion with 13 people in Beaver creek. Our group included 6 children, 7 years old and under. going out to restaurants would have been painful not to mention the Virus complications. Kevin prepared all our dinners and lunch for the complete visit. He managed the entire process leaving us time to visit and relax and no child restaurant terrors to experience. His food was skillfully prepared, varied and delicious. One of our children said he wanted to be Kevin and another wanted to be his apprentice to learn how to cook amazing dishes. The cost was less than eating out and the food as good as the best mountain restaurants could offer. I can highly recommend Kevin. He will not disappoint.

    Chef Kevin was AMAZING. Personable. talented and fit in with the family so well. We originally hired him for one night for two family’s over school break renting in Breck. We were so happy and so relaxed we hired him to come again another night.

    Food was OUTRAGEOUS and he is immaculate. We are in the restaurant/food businesses and are harsh critics. We could not say one negative thing. You Rock Kevin! I highly recommend Chef Kevin and we are excited to return next year and see him again, this time for three nights!

    Chef Kevin catered our family’s event. His food was outstanding, and his service and efficiency were exceptional. Not only that, but he was kind, courteous, accommodating, and approachable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to have their events catered!

    Many many thanks to Chef Kevin! We hired him for our daughter’s wedding weekend this past September, his appetizers, entrees, desserts AND
    personality were fantastic! Guests loved how welcoming and friendly he was.
    But, the food was spectacular. We trusted him with creating the breakfast, brunch, platters, rehearsal dinner and reception dinner and we were not disappointed.
    Accompanying Chef Kevin for the weekend was Chef Jordan who is just as talented and hardworking. Our daughter’s wedding weekend was made all the more special because of these two gentlemen.
    Our family highly recommends Chef Kevin and his staff.

    Chef Kevin McCombs catered a bachelor party weekend for a crew of friends and his meals were the talk of the trip. We had several larger guys, and all of us went to be with fully bellies and smiles on our faces. His meals were thoughtfully put together and amazingly delicious. He was happy to explain how and what he was doing whenever we were curious and give us tips that I have used in my own cooking. I (and I speak for all of us that were there) would highly recommend Kevin’s services.

    During a family vacation in Breck, we selected Kevin to cater a special dinner to celebrate my son’s recent High School graduation.
    The catered dinner was by far the highlight of our trip. The prepared meal, service, cleanup, and discussions with Kevin were top notch. He is very talented and his passion for his profession shows in his work. A true restaurant experience was delivered right in the comfort of our house, and at a fraction of typical restaurant costs. Kevin was very attentive to everyone’s needs considering we had to accommodate guests from 3 to 73 years in age, and we had food allergies to contend with. Plus, from the first introduction, Kevin memorized everyone’s name, all 14 of us…and addressed everyone by name all night long. What I truly admired most is that during food prep, cooking, service and cleanup, he engaged everyone in meaningful conversations. Not only can he cook, but he’s a wealth of knowledge in culinary arts and the local area (including attractions).

    I highly recommend Kevin and hope to engage his services again the next time we’re back in the area.

    Chef Kevin truly played a large role in making our ski vacation a dream come true. After 3 exhausting days of skiing, Chef Kevin was there to refuel us each evening (which was no easy task with 15 adults and 12 children in our group)He prepared unique and delectable meals for both kids and adults. He takes pride in paying great attention to detail including any special diet needs/wants. He is very friendly, easy-going and professional. Wishing I had more Elk carpaccio right about now…

    House Cured Culinary catered 2 meals while 3 families were staying together in Copper Mt. skiing for Spring Break. We wished we had catered more dinners that week!! The entire experience was seamless: from menus selection, pricing, preparation, and serving. We were so happy with the quality of the food and the amount was plenty for a house full of teenage boys and parents. It was truly a pleasure knowing that after a day of skiing we would be able to relax and have a wonderful dinner at home. Thank you Kevin and Jordan!!

    I have had the fortunate opportunity to know Kevin on a personal level and can say first hand he is one of the best chefs I have ever met. Everything from being at his house and having homemade Thanksgiving dinner, having the best fish and chips I have ever had prepared right in front of me, to seeing his expertise displayed at weddings and events, he never ceases to amaze me. Having food allergies myself he is accommodating to more dishes than I thought possible by having alternative ways to prepare and cook ensuring all his guests can enjoy.

    I would recommend Kevin for any event that needs the best of Summit County! Not only is he amazing at what he does, but easily the nicest guy I know, and a pleasure to be around.

    Chef Kevin McCombs is FIRST CLASS all the way! He helped us celebrate my dad’s 70th birthday and the food and service were AMAZING! Kevin put together a menu to meet the likes of all and prepared an amazing 5 course meal in the comfort of our home. It was truly a night to remember! I HIGHLY recommend Chef Kevin and we will definitely be using him in the future!

    We just got back from a business trip to Breckenridge and rented a house out there with 8 guys. We had Kevin come over and do his thing one night for us instead of going out and having to drive around town after some adult beverages.

    Kevin came highly recommended by the realtor we used, so we gave him a call to discuss the options. Kevin was incredibly professional on the phone and promptly emailed us several menu suggestions and followed up with another call to dial in the menu. On paper things looked great, now came the taste test the night of the dinner!!

    Let me tell you, Kevin did not disappoint! His culinary background and love of food shined through the entire night he was there! He came in a couple hours earlier while we were skiing and got set up with appetizers ready to go once we got back from skiing….the Spinach dip was absolutely amazing, as were the scallops wrapped in bacon among others!!

    Kev was a one man show out there, doing all the prep work, setting the table and clearing everything afterwards! Don’t know how he did it all and still provide dish after amazing dish to the group!! We started with a salad that had more ingredients than I can remember, followed by a great meal and TWO desserts!! It was tough to fit it all in, but we happily managed!!

    Not only was his cooking out of this world, but Kevin was incredibly friendly and great to be around! The guys appreciated all that he did and after the meal was done, we had him come back a couple nights later to do it all again!!

    The variety and cooking skills Kevin presented to us was really fantastic!! The costs were very reasonable and considering we had our own wine and beverages, you really can’t beat having Kevin come in and treat you to a 5-star meal at your own location!! We highly recommend you take a look at Kevin’s website and give him a call the next time you’re looking to stay in and have world class dining at your own house!

    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! We recently took a ski trip to Copper Mountain with 7 other couples. We decided to hire Kevin instead of trying to make reservations at a crowded restaurant. It far exceeded our expectations! After a long day of skiing, we were able to shower and relax in the comfort of the home we rented, while Kevin made a wonderful variety of fresh appetizers. Our group enjoyed our own “happy hour” at home and then sat down to a delicious steak dinner! Kevin did an amazing job of meeting all of our requests, dietary needs, and it was very affordable. He covered EVERYTHING from buying the food, preparing it, and cleaning it up! AMAZING experience!

    We will definitely be hiring Kevin again! Thanks!

    We had Chef McCombs over for 2 nights while our family was skiing in Breckenridge. He was polite, professional and such a good cook. Everything was fabulous from hors d’oeuvres to his homemade desserts. He is a necessity for anyone looking to enjoy more of their vacation! He will definitely be a part of our next visit to the area.
