"As a retired American Airlines Sales and Marketing Manager, I had the opportunity to travel the world and experience fine dining. One of my many responsibilities was to entertain corporate executives in order to showcase what American Airlines could offer to them in the way of group travel for their incentive programs. I did this by forming a partnership with hotels and destination management companies. American Airlines would provide the airline seats. The hotels and destination management companies provided lodging, entertainment and meals. Frequently we would be provided with a private dining room, a meal prepared by executive chefs and served with white glove service. Having provided you with my back ground, you will understand that when I offer a recommendation for Chef Martin Koenig, it comes from someone that has experience fine dining in world class restaurants and private dining rooms by well qualified chefs. On two separate occasions I have had Chef Martin prepare meals for me in my home for friends and family. He is very creative with menu ideas while being sensitive to our dietary requirements. He is very efficient and works within the confines of my non professional kitchen. The food is always excellent and prepared to perfection. The presentations are visually pleasing, the service is beyond reproach and all of this comes with a chef with a wonderful personality."
