Frequently Asked Questions

What size weddings are you able to cater?

Right arrow

We can cater intimate gatherings as small as 15 or celebrations of up to 200 people.

What type of food can you provide?

Right arrow

We. Can. Cook. Anything. We want to offer the guests an opportunity to let us know what they would like to enjoy at their wedding, and we want to work to accommodate that. We can provide a plated service, buffet style, or heavy appetizers depending on the venue. The fun in these events is working with the couple to create the menu of their dreams for a special occasion.

Do you cater out-of-town events?

We have a vast area that we cater to. We can travel as far west as Texas, south as Miami, and north as North Carolina. Due to logistics, we charge for transportation, which could limit what is provided depending on the venue’s kitchen.

Exactly that! I arrive to your house 60-90 minutes prior to the agreed upon start time, I'll bring a staff member with me, and you sit back and enjoy the show! We take care of all dishes, cleaning the kitchen, packing leftovers, and everyone is welcome into the kitchen to ask questions at any time!

Do you provide a bartender?

We can provide a beer & wine service, but we do not offer a full liquor bar.

We loved watching him prepare the courses while talking with us and answering questions.

Chef Leon prepared a delicious 3-course meal for our family celebration. He is so personable and fun! We loved watching him prepare the courses while talking with us and answering questions. His smile lights up the room! His Mango and Steak Salad, Japanese Curry Crispy Skin Snapper, and Cassava Cake Bread Pudding were so delicious! We loved every course, and my kitchen was so clean when Chef Leon was finished! Such a wonderful evening. If I could rate more than five stars, I would! Treat yourself!

Simply Amazing! Everything was delicious. Chef Leon put together a perfect menu for a small intimate gathering, and we were all so impressed with his selections. The crab cakes were by far the best I have ever had. The passion Chef has for his clients, for his food, and for his community was evident. It was a great experience, and we are looking forward to the next time! Tallahassee has a great gem in Chef Leon!

An experienced chef with a great personality, we would highly recommend him for your next personaliz

On the set of "White Fire," a short film produced in Tallahassee, FL, Chef Brunson catered delicious meals that the entire cast and crew enjoyed. The meal of shrimp and grits/potato bread pudding was simple yet overwhelmingly flavorful. The chef knew how to cater to a large crowd and kept all of the buffet-style food warm up until serving time. An experienced chef with a great personality, we would highly recommend him for your next personalized meal either for a few people or a large crowd.
