It is my pleasure to recommend Barbara Schwartz. Barbara received her culinary training at The Natural Gourmet Institute where the focus is on gourmet vegetarian cuisine. After graduating from our Chef's Training Program, she established a very successful meal delivery business called Veggie Barbara's. As Placement Director at the school, I frequently referred clients to Barbara and received outstanding feedback. She consistently delighted her customers with fresh, delicious, beautifully packaged weekly meals delivered to their doors.
Barbara is a highly creative vegetarian chef with excellent organizational skills and a genuine passion for food. She is mature, professional and dependable. I believe her cuisine would be a welcome addition to any household.
Sincerely,
Rosemary Serviss

I was a customer of Barbara Schwartz's for a year in New York City, and I'm writing to unequivocally recommend her talents as a vegetarian chef. Her carefully prepared meals (which I ate four nights a week), were always tasty concoctions that also provided excellent nutrition.
Barbara started and thrived with her own gourmet vegetarian meal delivery service in a very competitive market in New York City. Her food stood out from the crowd because of its delicious flavor, inventiveness, and the freshness of ingredients. Barbara expertly found unusual ways to use standard vegetarian ingredients such as tofu and Tempeh. Her soups, such as the Lemon Lentil and Spinach and the Indian Vegetable soup, were satisfying to the palate as either a main dish or appetizer. Some of my favorite dishes were her Grilled Tempeh and Sweet Potato Stew, Vegetable Lasagna and Mexican dishes. She has enormous knowledge of food preparation and is able to use the freshest local ingredients in her recipes.
Barbara is a creative woman whose intelligence, organization, and eye for presentation only add to her skills as a chef. She's highly responsible and is a master in the vegetarian kitchen. I wholeheartedly endorse her abilities.

I highly recommend Barbara Schwartz as a vegan chef. I have been eating health food for most of my life, and I can tell you that, without a doubt, Barbara's food is absolutely delicious and really healthy. Her food is never boring, which is difficult to achieve in health food cuisine.
Also, she was always personable and accommodating. Her service in New York was impeccable. If I ever wanted to make a special request, it was never a problem.
I would not hesitate to welcome Barbara as your chef. You can completely trust her. She will create delicious and healthy meals, which you and your family will benefit from and enjoy.
Sincerely,
Tina Baraque, E.A.
