“Mary was so great to work with and planned the most amazing private dinner for our girls weekend on Kinderhook Lake. As I was planning this dinner from out of state, Mary was in constant communication via email and phone leading up to our dinner. She sent several menu options and ideas for us to choose from – and it was honestly so hard to select just a few – everything sounded amazing!
We were a group with several dietary restrictions and Mary not only accommodated these needs, but still created the most delicious meal we had ever had. From start to finish, everything was delicious – and beautifully presented!
Mary left our kitchen exactly as it was when she came. I would recommend Mary without any hesitation to anyone looking for a fantastic, accommodating and lovely chef!” – Caroline, Kinderhook NY

“Mary Kenney has been a godsend. I am a busy attorney in my mid-thirties and I have always been devoted to my education and career to the exclusion of my diet. After realizing that eating habits I had gotten away with in my younger years were catching up with me, I began working with a nutritionist and personal trainer. Shortly thereafter, I met Mary and asked her if she could help. She agreed to discuss my dietary needs with my nutritionist and proposed a meal plan that fit my budget. Mary has been cooking meals for me for 8 months now and I feel better physically than I have in years.” – Carl, Albany NY

“Mary’s personal chef service fits my needs in so many ways. She shops every week for menu to my specifications, non-GMO, organic , no hormones or antibiotics- She creates tasty and nutritionally balanced meals on a regular basis. Love it…” – Deb, Clifton Park, NY

“Mary is a fabulous personal chef! Her food is delicious and presented beautifully. She cooked dinner for my mother and me a few weeks ago and the food was mouth watering and magazine quality. The main course (sea bass) was so amazingly good that I felt like I was eating at a 5-star restaurant. She was friendly, informative and very talented in the kitchen. Also, I’m pretty sure she left the kitchen even cleaner than it was when she arrived. I highly recommend Mary and look forward to enjoying her cooking again soon!” – Kristin, Latham NY

“Mary is very talented and has a true gift as a personal chef. I’ve witnessed first hand how devoted she is to using only quality ingredients in her preparation of meals. She is very easy to work with and a joy to have in our home. We’ve been utilizing Mary’s services for about 6 months now and each meal that is put in front of us is “WOW”. The only thing better than the presentation is the amazing way it tastes! I would highly recommend her!” – Diane, Cohoes NY

“Mary came to our home and prepared and served an absolutely elegant dinner for eight, everything from soup to nuts. Actually, “soup to nuts” does not even begin to do justice to Mary’s fabulous and creative menu. It was summertime, so we started with a watermelon gazpacho, followed by a poached lobster appetizer with a delectable citrus mango butter. The main course was beef tenderloin with a delicious cherry, sage, red wine reduction, fingerling potatoes with coarse mustard, and green beans. For dessert, peach cobbler topped with cinnamon gelato – so good! Mary chose the menu and everyone was asking for recipes (which she graciously shared). Mary also chose regional wines for each course. Last but not least, no clean-up for me!” – Margaret, Loudonville NY

Dinner parties are never easy. Unless, of course, you hire Mary Kenney. Not only did Mary provide a selection of menus for me to choose from, she also did all the shopping and prep work. All of this in addition to providing a beautifully prepared meal. Mary was extremely well organized and anticipated guests needs. All the ingredients were of highest quality and the final result was simply delicious. Mary is an amazing chef! – Anna, Troy NY

“I have had the pleasure of being Mary’s friend and experiencing her amazing cooking for over ten years. This past year, she prepared a specialty dish from Utica, NY “Chicken Riggies” for a holiday dinner. I was elated because this is my favorite Italian dish. A few restaurants around Albany attempt the recipe but tend to overdo it. Mary nailed it on her first try. My dad was a chef and owned his own Italian restaurant in Utica. Needless to say, I am a food snob. Mary reminds me of my dad, she shops local farmer’s markets and co-ops for the best ingredients and foods possible. It is truly difficult to find the quality and preparation of cooking that Mary provides in most restaurants in the Capitol District.” – Cynthia, Delmar NY
