One of the greatest compliments is “Let’s Do It Again!”


The McCarty’s had me back to prepare dinner for close friends that were in town for a visit. They wanted something special so we decided on Paella For the entree’. The appetizers  were Crab Cakes w/my signature Remoulade Sauce and my Meatchetta. We prepared Banana Foster for dessert!

My Paella

For The Johnson’s Mock Cruise Dinner

I served Crabcakes, Baby Spinach Salad, Mussel Chowder and Paella and Deconstructed Apple Pie Ala Mode. It was so much fun to cater for them again.

Why catering cost more than a restaurant meal

Food for thought

Let's go outside of food just for a moment to answer this question. 

Let's talk about fashion; like a  tailored shirt or dress. 

You get to select the material, how it fits; (loose and comfortable or form fitting), the exact color and print you desire, etc. it perfectly contours to your body and it perfect for the occasion you're purchasing it for. No one else will be wearing this item of clothing.

Catering is similar in that we're creating a menu precisely tailored to your specifications. When your chef shops, it's not in bulk to get the cheapest price. Chefs shop to get the best available fresh produce and protein sourced locally and seasonally just for your event. Many times a chef will add to your menu based on seasonal ingredients that she or he happened upon when shopping. 

Such was the case, when I catered a multiple day event for family vacationing in the Disney area. 

My Croissant Encrusted Brie usually has a Blueberry or Strawberry Preserve made from scratch. I happen to run across the sweetest nectarines while shopping. I created a fantastic Nectarine Compote and it was phenomenal. The family raved about how good it was and that it was not part of the agreed upon menu. 

This a similar philosophy used in upscale restaurants offering their "off menu" Amuse-Bouche.
