Reviews
Chef Jerry continues to dazzle clients with his culinary theme buffets, class demonstrations etc. By using his artistic ambiance appeal that people can't wait to taste, his vision as a chef is to invite the public to see, chat and taste a well prepared array of favorable ethnic foods.
I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Chef Jerry Hollis. I am the Student Activities Coordinator at the Dallas DeVRY campus. I coordinate many activities for the students, which consists of 1,000 plus students with any given activity. I asked Chef Jerry to prepare a buffet for our students, and the rest is history. He is definitely a vendor that I am proud to recommend to any company or organization who is looking for great quality, and superior customer service.
Again, if you are looking for professionalism, dedication, caring for detail, high quality, and a wonderful enthusiasm for their work, I would recommend Chef Jerry Hollis, every time.

Dear Chef Jerry,
I am writing this letter to let you know just how much we appreciated the Dinner that you and your wonderful staff prepared for our Christmas Banquet. Everyone raved about the variety and the excellent taste of the food. I apologize for not having you come out and introducing you to the people; buy you know how it is - I usually don't have a real chef catering for me. (smile) I thought about it late that night and realized that that was what I was suppose to do. I will remember next. We do appreciate the way that you prepare your food and the great care that you take in your presentation.
Again thank you for making our Christmas Banquet a great success. I look forward to working with you again in the near future. May God continue to bless your catering service and the ministry that you are performing for the people.
Sincerely,
Ernest & Shirley Crowley 2000

Chef Jerry,
It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of support, to show my gratification for the many years of great meals that you have provided my friends, and myself. The variety of outstanding meals that I have had the pleasure of enjoying at the Skyline Club, in Dallas, is beyond anything that I have experienced in the Dallas area. Along with the great variety, the meals have a unique blend of great quality, taste, texture, and satisfaction.
The Skyline Club is the only restaurant in Dallas that I am willing to try new and exciting meals, since everything that I have tried has been incredibly great. You have provided this community with a service that cannot be topped in the Dallas area, and I am very honored to be a part of your customer base.
Keep up the great work, and look forward to trying more of your excellent meals.

Chef Jerry, thank you for that great summer cooking demo Saturday! This was my first time to attend and I guarantee you, I'll be back! I loved the different combinations, tastes, textures and the adventure of trying something new! You made it so easy. I especially loved the cold melon soup...oh, the different flavor combinations to tickle your palate! I also loved the tenderloin...it just melted in your mouth. Thanks again for taking time out of your busy schedule. I look forward to seeing you next month. And by the way, I'm bringing a friend

Chef,
Great presentation. I look forward to more classes in 2000. Keep up the great work.
Chef Jerry is great at demonstrating his cooking. The menus are complete and easy to follow. I truly enjoy spending this time on Saturdays. I will continue to come as long as these demonstrations are offered. Thanks for giving us this opportunity.
Presentation was wonderful, selection terrific and most of all I enjoyed Chef Jerry's humor. He makes cooking fun. I will be back and bring a guest.
One of our faithful members, Jerry Hollis, is an Executive Chef and is interested in serving local churches for a Sunday lunch or dinner, a fund raiser or church-wide fellowship. Jerry heads up our Downtown Outreach. He prepares food for ministers to give to the homeless twice a month. He also prepares dinner for the Ronald McDonald House monthly. Jerry has served many of our church functions and we have always received highly favorable comments from everyone. I give him my highest recommendation.

I am pleased to write a letter of recommendation for Chef Jerry Hollis. Chef Hollis served as the head chef at The Belo Mansion form 1986 to 1992. I worked closely with Chef Hollis at the Belo Mansion. During his time with us he greatly improved the quality and variety of the food as well as the presentation. He has greatly improved the overall bottom line without compromising quality. He has vast experience with large and or small groups, buffets, plated meals and specialty stations of food service. He cooked for high profile member of the Dallas legal community and the Dallas community at large for wedding, and special functions at the Belo Mansion. Overall I observed Chef Hollis as a very dedicated and focused hard worker and as very friendly supervisor who worked well with others.

Jerry Hollis of Your Private Chef has provided food services for our Bank One Processing Center in Bedford, Texas for the last three years. The quality of his food and service has been satisfactory to our 900+ employees working on three shifts. Effective June 1, 1999, Bank One will begin contracting our food services to National companies that can serve Bank One in several states. This is the reason that Your Private Chef will no longer serve our Bedford facility. It would be our recommendation that anyone needing a provider of food services consider Jerry Hollis.

During the period of 07 June 99 to 31 December 99, Mr. Hollis has contributed to increased sales and increased membership through quality and higher standards.

A certificate of appreciation has been presented to Jerry Hollis in recognition for exceptional dedication and devotion above and beyond normal duties under exceptional circumstances. Mr. Hollis performed exceptionally when confronted with extra demands on the Club during the Change of Command ceremonies and when the Club Manger was confronted with an emergency situation where he could not be available. He successfully picked up the pieces and made the special events a success. These actions bring great credit upon himself and the Army and Air Force Exchange Service.
