a few words from our friends….
“Chef Allison is one of our favorite people in the world. She is the perfect blend of knowledgeable, curious and creative. She is down to earth and always takes things one step above your expectations. Do not hesitate to book this service for a small or large event. This is a photo from a cooking demonstration event we did with our yoga studio.” -2025
“Chef Allison and her team are absolutely incredible. They put together AMAZING spreads that are thoughtfully curated and delicious. Their charcuterie boards are works of art. I cannot recommend her enough!!” -2025
I am an event planner at U of M and regularly hire Chef Allison to cater special events. She comes up with exquisite and unique menus, is wonderful to work with, and is always prepared. She is also adaptable in challenging situations. I look forward to every meal prepared by Chef Allison and her fabulous team! -2025
I have had the honor of attending many events cater by Allison and every single time her food knocks it out of the park. When I got married I ask her if she would make me some pies, and she made me an entire spread that was not only delicious but beautifully displayed!!! -2025
5/5 stars is not enough to adequately express ours, and our guests satisfaction, for the three courses Chef Allison and her team prepared and served for our wedding. We brought our ideas to Chef Allison and she asked us all the right questions and was able to create the menu of our dreams! Every dish was thoughtful and creative. The plating was beautiful. We heard compliment after compliment about the food from our guests. The service was friendly and efficient. They cleaned up and looked like they were never even in our kitchen. We would highly highly recommend Chef Allison and her team for large and small events alike. Thank you for being part of, and adding to, our special day ❤️ -2025
“Chef Allison is a delightful human, phenomenal chef, and skilled educator. Her culinary experiences are thoughtfully curated, beautifully executed, and often highlight fresh Michigan produce. Her cooking classes are accessible and engaging and have been a well loved gift for my family members. I cannot recommend Allison and her services enough!”
That dinner was on point! 2018
Your food is fantastic & your style of hospitality, love for your guests, & pure creative energy deserve to be famous. -2018
These cheesy Potatoes are f****ng amazing. And you can quote me on it. 2018
Your personal Chef services are life-changing. 2018
Thank you so much for such a phenomenally delicious evening :) It was such fun having you in our kitchen and your calm and equanimity inspired me! To say everything was delicious is an understatement - all your lovely touches from flowers and gourds to so many delightful and surprising ingredients - it was magical. And to add to it all that I didn’t have to plan, shop, cook, and most importantly: clean!! - a treat beyond measure. .2016
Thank you Allison Anastasio Zeglis for an amazing afternoon kicking off your culinary demonstration series at Last Bite Chef. PEOPLE, go. Just go. Girlfriends/couples groups, birthdays, families, name your excuse, GO. if I could share smell, taste & all things sensory on Facebook it would start a stampede to her door - it would be a public saftey hazard. All this in a beautiful, relaxed, comfortable setting with genuine heart for hospitality. Beautifully done, Allison, a huge success! I want to come back enough times to eventually bring everybody I know! The day was very easily worth every nickel of the cost of registration & the time to attend! 2018
We recently had Chef Allison prepare a dinner in our home for about 20 people. This was a special occasion, as it was a farewell party for a very good friend who is a major foodie, so we wanted to do something special. Allison absolutely delivered that special experience. My guests (many of whom are very discerning foodies) were thrilled with the meal crafted by Allison. We enjoyed a wide range of complementary dishes, from fresh vegetarian offerings, to seafood and meat dishes (the roasted pork belly was to-die-for!), to a hot soup course, and of course dessert. Allison guided us through this culinary journey at an excellent pace, explaining each set of dishes and answering any questions our guests had. As the evening wound down and we were enjoying dessert, Allison discreetly packed everything up and left the kitchen sparkling clean without us even noticing. She was professional, engaging, and efficient. We definitely plan on having her come again, and many of our guests were excited to get her contact information too. .2016
