If you're considering a private chef during your trip to St. Croix, look no further than Yaadie St. Croix. Chef Ashley Ellis, the mastermind behind the brand, is just as attentive to the ingredients she includes in each dish as she is with the guests she's cooking for.
Dietary restrictions in your group? Not a problem. Traveling with little ones as well as adults? Not a problem. We threw Ashley all of these curveballs, and she worked with us to ensure all of our needs were met via email before we arrived on the island.

She also kept us informed and well fed from the first pour of mango margaritas with our salt-fish fritter appetizers through to our dessert of red velvet rum cake.
