Proud New Member Testimonial: "Proud to say I am finally a member of the American Personal Chefs Association. Had to learn the "hard way" again. Shopped for liability insurance and web hosting on my own. Wow. Wonder how some people survive doing liability insurance on their own. No comparison on what the APCA offers vs. paying for liability insurance on your own. Thanks also for your kind words and low key sales approach. Your competition just doesn't get it. Everyone I talked to at San Diego and in Chicago was very helpful. Please pass on to Karen Tursi how great she is to be part of the APCA. She is truly a walking poster for how to be a personal chef. Looking forward to a long relationship with the APCA.
