We worked with Frank for our wedding and could not be happier with how the food turned out. It’s so rare to like food at a wedding and it was delicious. Frank worked with us to let us try the entrees ahead of time which sold us on working with him. He was super patient and accommodating when we updated our menu a few weeks out to add a vegan option and dessert. Our guests raved about the food!! I will definitely work with Frank again in the future! More...

Frank and Ryan were wonderful to work with! It was like an upscale restaurant came to our house. Food was perfect and the service, again, like an upscale restaurant. I will have them back!

How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
I like to interview my clients and find out their likes/dislikes/allergies/dietary restrictions. Then I ask them how they envision their event to go. I usually ask about service style whether it's passed apps, buffet, family-style, plated, or a combination of these. The menus are custom made for each client's preferences.
What do you love most about your job?
I really love being able to interact with my guests. In restaurants, generally speaking, your only interaction is with other chefs. This allows a bridge in the gap between the person cooking and the guest.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've always been more of a solo kind of person. I like to do my own thing, work when I want, choose who I work with, and create my own food and experience.
Why should our clients choose you?
I create an experience directly related to my client's needs, preferences, and expectations.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
