Rachel made the impossible happen, time and time again. Her ability to organize a large-scale private residence kitchen and staff, manage several residences at once, and create incredible meals - even at the last minute - is truly amazing.

Rachel makes the most amazing food I've ever had. It is delicious, nutritious and always presented beautifully...In addition to being a fantastically talented chef, she is a shrewd businesswoman, extremely organized and fun to be around.

Rachel catered our wedding in Santa Barbara in 2003. The food was amazing, and nearly 5 years later our friends and family still reminisce about it- especially the amazing fruit sushi she made as an appetizer! Rachel is creative and totally awesome.

Rachel consistently surprises and delights. I often find myself asking her, "Rachel, how did you make this? It is so unusual and wonderful." I don't know how she manages to be so consistently creative and successful.

Rachel Main is an exceptional chef and manager. Her input on commercial kitchen layout was invaluable. Rachel's organizational skills made the first years of business run far smoother than would otherwise have been the case. Her pleasant disposition made new clients feel welcome and helped set a positive tone in the kitchen. I give her my highest recommendation.
