Frequently Asked Questions
What type of food can you provide?
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.
How does this work? Do you just...come over and cook?
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.
How do you schedule a private dinner?
Schedule a call with me to confirm the dinner date and what kind of food you’d like. Then, based on our conversation, I can determine a price point.
