We had an amazing Wine and Cheese event at our school with Rebecca Meir! Our parents at the school love the exceptional knowledge and wine selections from Rebecca. A renewed pleasure every year, it has become a tradition!

We just celebrated my husband's 50th birthday with Chef & Somm and 18 of our closest family and friends. It was an exceptional shared experience. The depth and breadth of knowledge that both Chef Eyal and Sommelier Rebecca bring to their craft is extraordinary. The food was delicious, beautiful, adventurous and surprising. The wine pairings were perfect and thoughtful. The interaction and humour that Chef Eyal and Sommelier Rebecca bring to their explanations of each course and wine pairing make for a lively and entertaining evening. In addition, the care taken to protect individual food allergies and exceptions is heartwarming. Erica, the server, is extremely friendly, efficient and engaging. This was definitely the best "formal" dinner party we have ever hosted.

Bravo! A truly enjoyable and educating experience. Our sommelière was knowledgeable, engaging, entertaining and gracious. I look forward to future events where we can enjoy Chef & Somm again. 5 stars (If I could give 6 stars, I would).

Super kind, funny and knowledgeable. Learned a great deal from Rebecca and had a fantastic time.
06 April 2023 16:12
A couple weeks late in reviewing, but a fabulous experience. Rebecca was great to deal with in organizing and setting up the dinner, as well as her personable service during the evening. Chef Eyal's food was eye catching and tasted just as good as it looked. His interaction with us, with a little history on some of the dishes and story telling was a much a part of the evening as the food.

If you are looking for a great gift or just having a 5 start meal prepared and served in your home, I cannot recommend Chef & Somm enough. You will not be disappointed. Oh and not only do they do a great job of preparing and serving the meal, they do a great job cleaning up as well.

Unfortunately, i did not take any pictures as I was too eager to dive right into the amazing food.although, check out some of the dinner pics on their website, it's not food styling, it's what you get.

Thanks Rebecca and Chef Eyal for a memorable night.
03 April 2023 20:33
It was a truly magical night. The decor, the food, the wine pairing and the wonderful conversations all made for an excellent Valentines dinner at home. I would highly recommend Chef & Somm! Thanks again for such a wonderful experience:)

Eyal, Rebecca and Erica came out for my wife's birthday. They provided a wonderful evening. I was amazed with all of the equipment that they brought. They were very professional in getting on with things, and also very pleasant to be with. They were good with having our two young grandchildren there in the early part of the evening and a Boxer dog throughout! The food was excellent.very interesting takes on dishes that I thought that I knew. The service and presentation were great. They took very good care of us. And, to top it all off, they did a great clean up at the end. We had not done this before, and had a memorable evening that we can certainly recommend.
08 March 2023 14:16
Amazing in-home wine tasting. Rebecca picked amazing wines that aligned with what we wanted to try, and she guided us through the tasting. She was happy to answer our hundreds of questions. This was not a pretentious wine-tasting - this was us learning about the wines and finding what we liked, discovering new wines, regions and varietals to try. I would definitely do this again in the future, and highly recommend. So fun!
04 March 2023 3:19
Rebecca was great! We had a group of 12 of us and was very interactive and informative as we did a French Wine tasting. She picked some great wines for us as I gave her a price point that I wanted to keep it at. I would recommend her to others for sure.
30 January 2023 13:19
Wonderful evening! Eyal, Rebecca, and Erica are just the most amazing people - they took great care of us and prepared a really exceptional meal. We had fun, learned about the dishes, and finished the night thrilled with the experience - they're great!
09 January 2023 15:33
Rebecca and her team hosted our wine tasting event for our clients. They were professional, educational and entertaining. Rebecca was always quick to respond to us and extremely knowledgeable when it came to hosting the perfect event. We had a fantastic evening and can’t wait to use them again for future events! Thank you Chef & Somm for a wonderful evening!
08 January 2023 15:39
Rebecca was absolutely outstanding. She led a wine tasting seminar among a group, and everyone really enjoyed the stories Rebecca brought to the table and their time together. Thank you, Rebecca, for a wonderful experience!
06 January 2023 13:24
Was gifted this for my birthday and it was spectacular! Delicious food and wine in the comfort of my home!
24 December 2022 2:58
We used Rebecca for a corporate event in our office and it couldn't have gone better. She made everything easy to plan this event and the wine was beautifully curated. Our guests really enjoyed the tasting and all of the history and information Rebecca provided. The cheese boards were beautiful and a great way to have more fun conversations. I would absolutely use Chef&Somm again and look forward to working with them soon!
17 November 2022 8:57
AMAZING and professional service, a five star experience! My family and I really enjoyed Chef & Somm’s food and services and would highly recommend to anyone looking for an exquisite private dining experience!
16 November 2022 0:24
We had an extraordinary time with the team from Chef & Somm. They transformed our dining room with decor and flowers that perfectly matched our personality and interests. The effort and time invested to personalize our experience made the night extra special.

The journey was equal parts culinary delight and discovery, as the team educated us on the history of the food and wine they served.

I highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a unique way to expand their food and wine horizons in an elevated and deeply personal way.
02 November 2022 8:19
I can't say enough good things about Chef and Somm. I booked them for my girlfriend's 30th birthday and it was an amazing experience. The food, the wine, the presentation, everything exceeded my expectations. Rebecca and Eyal are so talented, knowledgeable, professional, creative and kind. We started planning our next dinner that same night!
31 October 2022 19:26
Fabulous experience! Our meal was delicious and the wine pairings were perfect, would highly recommend!
22 October 2022 6:48
Oh my, the evening was simply beautiful. The cuisine and the decor provided by Chef and Somm were more than we expected. The room was very elegant and so pleasing to the eye.
Every course paired with lovely wine along with knowledge sharing from the chef and the sommelier was very fun and informative.
I could not think of a better way to celebrate our 40th anniversary with those we love.

Rebecca provided a perfect evening for our family to celebrate my father's 80th birthday. The wines were interesting, stories engaging, the attitude non-pretentious. She accommodated three date changes (because covid). Overall, I would highly recommend. My dad cannot stop talking about it!
07 August 2022 3:09
One may think that someone with the impressive resume of Ms. Meir would approach wine with some degree of un-relatability to the un-initiated. Quit the opposite.

Rebecca provided an absolutely unforgettable evening for our group's in-home tasting. She displayed a rich knowledge of the history of the wine and wine makers, in allowing her brilliantly curated selections to become accessible. She is a storyteller as much as a Som and provided such a unique approach to wine tasting that my group is still talking about it days later.

She was such a great communicator, extremely flexible and just a pleasure to work with beginning to end. I could not recommend her more for all your tasting needs!
03 August 2022 2:12
What an amazing experience. Great selection of wines and probing questions from the Somm Rebecca that got my guests interacting and curious to learn more on the history of each wine. Chef, Eyal paired the Hor O 'oeuvres nicely with each wine. Presentation, flavour and combinations all with fresh ingredients was a definite WIN! This was an experience I would like to do again.
26 July 2022 17:36
Had an amazing evening with the Eyal and Rebecca - their combined creative talents made for spectacular evening. Eyal's artistic flair in presentation made every course a culinary delight. Would highly recommend Chef and Somm and will be enjoying their company again soon! Brett and Latifa
18 July 2022 14:49
Loved them so much, made us super comfortable.would get them to come back again.amazing chemistry and care about clients ️ thank you guys once again
08 June 2022 3:10
My husband had arranged a beautiful birthday dinner at our home with the amazing chef rebecca and chef Eyal. It was the best experience ever. Let’s not forget the best decor designer Erica, who made sure the dinner looked beautiful with the candles and roses. I don’t even have the words to explain it. I felt like i was on cloud 9.
08 May 2022 15:32
I planned a surprise birthday party for my husband with Chef & Somm, a dining experience with paired wines for a party of four. We were absolutely floored by high caliber of food, wine, and the amazing personalities of Rebecca, Erica, and Chef Eyal! The wine was out of this world delicious, the food absolutely scrumptious, and the gorgeous decor melted our hearts. The amount of tailoring and personalisation for my husband's likes/wants was so thoughtful and carefully prepared, that I saw him blush for the second time since knowing him (the first blush was during our wedding lol). I can't stress enough how magical the evening was, it was absolutely perfect and beyond all of our expectations. And on top of it all, they are a sustainable, environmental, and local focused friendly company! Thank you Rebecca, for your great knowledge in wine, neat origin stories and your beautiful warm heart. Thank you Erica, for your lovely creative mind and your life of the party amazing company. And thank you Chef, for your one-of-a-kind precise art of cooking, interesting food history and your spunky humour that we loved! I will recommend Chef & Somm over, and over, and over again to everyone I know.
08 May 2022 9:27
We had a fabulous, small 60th birthday dinner party! Completely decadent and memorable. Rebecca and her team were organized, prepared, talented and entertaining! The food and wine was fantastic! I'd highly recommend them for a special and unique event!
10 October 2021 3:50
We hosted a professional virtual wine tasting event and wow! What a great experience. First their team is so efficient with the coordination. Rebecca is so knowledgeable, personable and fun. Thank you Chef & Somm for making our event a very memorable one!
29 September 2021 13:56
Chef & Somm hosted a virtual wine and cheese pairing event for us and were wonderful to deal with. Rebecca was very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process and nothing was too much to ask for. The response from our guests was very positive and they found the event very engaging which can be difficult to achieve in a virtual environment. Highly recommend!
28 September 2021 14:23
We just want to thank Chef and Rebecca for a most wonderful dining experience. The menu and wine choice pairings were outstanding and were certainly enhanced by the beautiful dinnerware and cutlery. It was a pleasure to be able to discuss the food and wine before tasting which only added to the overall wonderful experience.
We would recommend them highly to anyone who wants to enjoy an evening of great food, delicious wine, and very interesting dining observations. They made this in home dining experience very memorable.

The event: surprise French inspired wine tasting with appetizers.
The result: One of the best nights of our lives.

The wine selection was perfect, the food was insanely delicious, and the conversations we had were inspiring and informative - it could not have been a better night celebrating our bride-to-be. Rachel and Chef Eyal were a dream team - from their prepping and cleaning (the kitchen was spotless when they left!), to their presentation and knowledge - I could sing their praises for hours. It truly was an evening none of us will forget.

We cannot wait for our next event with Chef & Somm as we decided that this needs to become a new tradition in our life.
06 September 2021 6:08
What a great night! The knowledge of wine and the delicious cheese was very informative. The pairing selection was wonderful and the hosts were fun, knowledgeable and open to all questions.
We would definately recommend them 100% and would use them for a function we may have coming up when we can all get back to normalicy.
02 September 2021 11:01
My husband hired Chef & Somm as a surprise for my 40th birthday, and it was arguably one of the best experiences of my life.

Chef Eyal is so genuinely passionate about his craft - and created an unforgettable menu, paired with stories behind the motivation of each dish and a lot of food history. He is an all star, along with his team in the kitchen, who delivered a Michelin star quality dinner.

Sommelier Rebecca was equally passionate and knowledgeable on all of the wine pairings throughout a mutli-course dinner, and went into great depth on the grapes, regions and wine making - which for me was a dream come true as an aspiring (albeit amateur!) sommelier.

And Erica and team set the mood, decor and even made a pivot from outdoors to indoors (due to rain) seamlessly - creating an unforgettable night.

I can't say enough thanks to all of you, and highly HIGHLY recommend this all star team for anyone looking to create a magical experience with food, wine and ambiance.

Sommelière - Rebecca Meir and Chef Liebman did such an amazing job during our virtual tasting! They helped us get a great selection of wines and cheeses to learn about, which impressed even the most knowledgeable of our guests. Would highly recommend (and have already started to!)
01 August 2021 5:34
Chef & Somm hosted a very engaging virtual wine and cheese event for my clients. It was very relaxed, informative and FUN. They were super responsive during the planning process, and handled all elements of the preparations - including GTA deliveries. I would highly recommend using Chef & Somm for your next event. The feedback from our guests was fantastic.
19 July 2021 12:01
A fun, educational evening with knowledgeable and entertaining hosts. Wine and cheese selection was astounding. Excellent conversation mixed with history and technical aspects of wine and cheese making. Thank you Rebeca and Chef Liebman!
12 July 2021 15:21
Recently hired Chef and Somm to host a virtual Wine & Cheese tasting event for clients and friends, and it was a great event! Rebecca organized and hosted, and made the whole experience so easy for us. The wine and cheese that she and Chef selected were sublime, and their presentation was intelligent and fun. I highly recommend Chef & Somm if you are looking to connect with friends and clients in a creative and fun way.
12 July 2021 6:56
Rebecca, I love your style. Talking about wine in a human way is refreshing and the right way to talk about it. And your choice of wines are excellent, and a good way to help people appreciate wine on a personal level.
10 July 2021 12:39
Hi Rebecca and Eyal,
thanks so much for the amazing evening. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all. I had a lot of positive feedback! You are so generous. I couldn't believe how quickly the evening passed. I learned so much. We have already talked about having you back for an event with our friends once this pandemic is all over.
06 July 2021 16:55
I hired Rebecca to run a virtual wine tasting as part of an event for some of our VIP clients. Her wealth of wine knowledge and ability to be so completely engaging and personable even on zoom really made the event a huge success. Our clients left raving about it. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
22 June 2021 2:40
It was a pleasure working with Rebecca from start to finish, who selected wine for a special birthday, and dropped off cheese and other goodies so we could celebrate at home (safely). Highly recommended.
12 June 2021 19:42
We had Chef & Somm host an event for our team. The experience was great with both Rebecca and Eyal providing insights on the wine and cheese selections (which were really good and unique) while making the experience enjoyable and entertaining for the team. I would recommend them and intend to have them host further events. Ken & Linda
27 May 2021 4:50
We had an amazing 19th bday celebration "covid-style" with our son. Rebecca answered my last minute call to make his day extra special and within 36 hours we had wine and cheese delivered to our home and an intimate and informative "party" with Chef & Somm. So much great info and their wine and cheese choices were sooo delicious and perfect. We look forward to more events with the two of them - hopefully in our home!
04 May 2021 1:41
The Best! Rebecca was an exceptional communicator and lovely to deal with. Her and Chef were awesome, funny, kind and very informative. I set this up for my wife and two of her friends for her bday and they LOVED IT! All around an amazing experience. Thank you Chef and Somm, awesome job!
28 March 2021 7:55
What a great experience! We did the wine and cheese seminar over zoom and it was fantastic. I will definitely recommend it to my friends and family. Thanks!
01 March 2021 7:31
This virtual wine and cheese saved 2020! I planned this event for my office and everyone was counting down the days. I got a lot of heartfelt thank yous and it was well received all around. Interesting and fun wine selections and delicious cheeses entailed. Great expertise and knowledge sharing from Eyal and Rebecca. This was an excellent professional and personal experience. It was the perfect balance.
21 February 2021 1:15
We organized a surprise virtual wine and cheese celebration for my mother-in-law’s birthday and it was a complete success. Even though we only had a couple of weeks to organize the event, Rebecca was extremely responsive, and ensured every detail was met. All guests were shocked and pleased by the professionalism and expertise of Rebecca and Eyal. They were great at engaging the audience, and answered a lot of great questions. My mother-in-law mentioned it was the best birthday party she has ever had.

Chef & Somm was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish. Rebecca and her partner put on 2 incredible client events for us. Every single detail from the choice of wine and cheese, to the coordination of shipping packages across the province was perfect. The wine and cheese packages were beautifully put together. Their knowledge, attention to detail and engaging and informative presence during the events was top notch. I look forward to working with them again and would not hesitate to give them the highest of recommendations. Lorna Killam, FUSE Create

Sommelier Rebecca Meir and Chef Eyal Liebman did a wonderful and educational virtual wine and cheese tasting for our team of eight; of which 2 are from the UK and Vancouver. Everything was so well organized; and Rebecca was brilliant and also able to make arrangements to deliver the wines and cheese to these 2 out of town/country places during the pandemic! The selection of wines and the types of cheese pairing was not only insightful but tasted amazing. I would highly recommend them for any wine/cheese or any celebrations you contemplate of having as it was indeed a wonderful experience. Would definitely do this again.
13 January 2021 7:14
We hired Rebecca for a virtual wine tasting seminar for our work event. She went above and beyond for us, had a wonderful selection of wines for to choose from and even delivered to each employee for us - seamless. Rebecca was engaging and fun for all (even the non-wine drinkers). She is a professional in the field and I would highly recommend her anyone interested in a fun and interactive team building event!
31 December 2020 11:03
Chef & Somm created the most special, memorable experience to celebrate our engagement! Everything about the evening was PERFECTION - the food and the wine pairings were exceptional - I love Chef's creativity and pushing the limits with getting us to try things out of comfort zone. They also elevate the entire experience with their knowledge and stories and willingness to share with you. An unforgettable dinner - could not be happier to have this be part of our special day. Thank you a thousand times over!
26 December 2020 0:55
Working with Rebecca on curating a unique and tailored experience was amazing. The dinner and the event was beyond our expectations. It was more like a curated artistic performance that you get to taste than a chef experience. Really extraordinary. Having Eyal in your home is like having a Michelin Star Chef prepare in your kitchen and share with your his passion and knowledge. And Rebecca is a fantastic Sommelier. Truly once in a lifetime, memorable event!

I have to say: When I first came across the post, I thought it was a great idea, but was still a bit sceptical. At the end it was an amazing experience, from the first contact to the actual day in our home.

I purchased their service as a birthday present for my wife and she was completely floored by the service, professionalism and taste. Rebecca was always responsive and brought in her own ideas and recommendations.
We decided to give Eyal a free hand with the menu and wanted him to bing in his creativity. WE HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED.

The menu and taste was terrific and Eyal created a few courses that were out of the ordinary (chocolate covered shrimp) but yet SOOO good.

Rebecca and Eyal, both stunned us with their knowledge and competence when it comes to cooking and wine pairing.

Long story short: this was one of our all time favourite experiences and we will recommend them 100%. I was so satisfied that I introduced them to my employer as an option for high-class customer appreciation events etc.

Thank you both again! We will invite you back for sure.
25 October 2020 10:27
Chef & Somm came to our condo to cook dinner for my girlfriend's 31st birthday. It was a surprise for her and it is the best dining experiences I have ever had. The magnitude of creativity that came out of our kitchen was astounding!

The dynamic couple, Chef Eyal and Sommelier Rebecca, were such wonderful company to have in our home. I will happily welcome them back again for another event. It was great getting to know them. It was a seamless experience that I would highly recommend to everyone.

The food was amazing! Watching Chef Eyal perform his craft is something special in itself. He brought all his own ingredients, which were all of the highest quality, and transcended them into beautiful dishes. His plating was fantastic and elevated by the superb dishes he brought as well.

The wine kept flowing. Rebecca brought stunning wines that paired perfectly with each dish that Chef Eyal was creating. It was great being able to try two and three different wines with each dish. Each wine was transformed with every different bite.

Contacting them was super easy and their website is very informative and helpful. Rebecca was great responding to my questions and was happy to walk me through the process from start to finish. The food interview helped create the menu that the Chef made just for us.

Overall - it was a fantastic experience I highly recommend. If you're looking for great food, wine, and an unforgettable experience, don't hesitate. Contact Chef & Somm and get ready for an incredible event.
