This team is dedicated, detail oriented, focused, always ready to think beyond normal boundaries and create new dining experiences. This has certainly helped Twitter to have a world class dining experience. I surely would recommend this team for any project you have in mind.

    John Dickman, Global Food Program Manager at Twitter
  • I had a chance to work with Nahum and NGA in several instances in the past and I was very satisfied with the work product they delivered. Food service constructions can be tricky; Nahum and NGA makes this process seamless with their knowledge and expertise. While there are many food service consultants out there, I would always go with Nahum because I know I would get exceptional service from someone who truly cares.

    Burak Akalin, Director, LA Workplace Operations at Netflix
  • Nahum is an extremely knowledgeable and helpful . He did a fantastic job of executing our vision while keeping a tight leash with vendors and contractors. Highly recommended.

    Scott Erickson, Executive Chef of Kali's Kitchen
  • I was introduced to Nahum as part of the development of our Alameda Campus. Nahum quickly became an integral part of the development team insofar as to the design of our café. Nahum designed the café based on the number of occupants it would feed and the number of services. Nahum worked tirelessly with us and our team of employees to select the best café operator for the campus. Nahum set up various viewings and then helped us come up with a short list of candidates. Nahum was a key team member in the analysis of the short list both on the quality of food we could expect as well as the financial commitment we would be required to make. Nahum was easy to work with and his follow up skills are tremendous. Nahum was also very instrumental in advising us and helping us with value engineering of the café equipment and came up with a very creative solution so that we obtained everything the café required to operate yet at the same time remain within our budgetary constraints. We are currently retaining Nahum as our café consultant and find his service indispensable.

    Javier Maldonado, MBA, RPA, Director of Corporate Facilities
  • Nahum possesses excellent experienced knowledge regarding food service project design. Having worked closely with Nahum on a couple kitchen designs, I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

    Dave Blom, Executive Pastry Chef at The Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa
  • Nahum has a depth of knowledge in food service design that few have. The professional contacts he maintains are made available to clients to make our job easier. Nahum took a project that was mishandled and turned it around. His professionalism was instrumental in moving us in to our new 780 bed hospital food service. He is always available for consultation and delivers what he promises!

    Steven KoneffKlatt, Senior Health Care Administrator / Consultant S.F. Bay Area
  • Nahum has been an amazing design consultant to partner on creating world class dining establishments. He has been a solid support for multiple projects from conceptual modeling to continued leverage of manufacture's services well after a project has closed out.

    David Henderson, Connecting the dots on a global scale

    Noam Rosenthal, Independent Software Consultant, Web Technologies Specialist
  • I was delighted that Nahum accepted my invitation to speak to my UC Berkeley Foodservice Organization and Management class this spring. He did a great job of bringing to life a topic that can be intimidating to those not in the field (facilities, design, and equipment) and many of my students are now interested in an area that at first scared them off.

    Kristen Rasmussen, Culinary Nutrition and Food Sustainability Expert
  • Via membership and active participation in the Foodservice Consultants Society International (FCSI), I was pleased to work with Nahum. During this time we had ample opportunity to discuss our mutual dedication to professionalism and ethics; cornerstones of FCSI's commitment to client assistance in the most honorable manner possible. He and I both agreed that the ultimate challenge is the willingness to tell the client what is he/she need to hear, not what they want to hear. In terms of dedication, no one could ask for more.

    John Cornyn, Senior Consultant with Brailsford & Dunlavey and Past President of the FCSI Educational Foundation

Great customer experience and functional from consumer and operations perspectives, Nahum is a true professional who is able to successfully incorporate input from all various "factions".

    Bill Chow, Foodservice strategies for a sustainable future

This project was nominated as one of top ten in 2010 by the North Bay Business Journal. Nahum was responsible for coordination and design of all the kitchen and servicing equipment and exceeded all expectations on a daily basis. He understood the spatial constrains very well and assisted Architects and Interior Designers with better organized and mindful design approach. I highly recommend Nahum to any company that might require his services.
