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.
Testimonials
I was so impressed with the upscale presentation, professionalism, and communication.
ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING!!! Chef Leon Brunson catered our Christmas dinner at Big Fish Real Estate. Our staff, family, and clients were in Awe of the delicious menu from Prim Rib, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, asparagus, gravy, buttermilk biscuits with homemade jam, and more. The food was by far the best I’ve ever had. I was so impressed with the upscale presentation, professionalism, and communication. Chef Leon is going to be the top on everyone's list for any personal Chef and catering. Something this sensational has never been in Tallahassee. I’m booking all my events for the year now, so I can be sure to get on the books. Thank you so very much, Chef Leon. You were Amazing!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
He is amazing! Great food, great personality - it doesn't get any better than this!
Chef Leon came to my brother-in-law's house and cooked a four-course meal for our family! We started off with crab cakes, then salad, then Moroccan Grouper, and onto bread pudding for dessert! All I can say is wowwwww! What an amazing experience! Call Chef Leon for your events, he is amazing! Great food, great personality - it doesn't get any better than this! Thank you, Chef Leon!
Amazing presentation and great food! Chef Leon is awesome!
Amazing presentation and great food. Chef Leon is awesome. Book him now because this guy will have his own tv show soon and he will be too famous and you won't be able to get him.
Chef Leon's cooking is superb, matched by his great personality. He is exceptional!
Leon has been a private chef for my family for four years. His cooking is superb, matched by his great personality. He has cooked family dinners for 5 to 7 people on a regular basis and catered dinners and receptions for 30-100 people. He is exceptional.
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.
Every course was amazing; the flavors were perfect and cooked with excellent precision.
Tallahassee, book this chef while you can! Contact was very easy with Leon; after a quick initial phone call setting the parameters of our dinner, I was emailed a list of potential menu options to pick from. On the day of our meal, Leon brought everything he needed to cook with, and we got the chance to sit and talk with him as he cooked in our kitchen. We loved the conversation as much as the food. Every course was amazing; the flavors were perfect and cooked with excellent precision. It was so much fun to talk about the food and cooking techniques, as well as just chat with Leon. For the amount of time Leon was in our house cooking and the preparation time he had to have put in for our meal (plus he bought all the ingredients), the price was more than fair. I wish Leon could cook all our meals!
