About Our Boutique Catering

Our Approach
Our boutique catering model is rooted in connection, creativity, and on-site craftsmanship. Unlike traditional caterers who prepare meals off-site and transport them in warming boxes, we cook everything fresh at your venue. We bring our mobile kitchen and work within your event space to ensure every dish is served at its delicious peak — vibrant, hot, and expertly finished moments before it reaches your guests.

This approach is inspired by Chef Will Giudara, author of Unreasonable Hospitality, and his belief in the transformative power of exceeding expectations. We believe catering should be more than food delivery; it should be a deeply personal, unforgettable experience. We take on only events that allow for this level of care and collaboration.

Why We Take Our Approach
Boutique catering offers something no preset menu can: a one-of-a-kind culinary experience rooted in your story. It’s exclusive, creative, and rewarding for everyone involved — guests, hosts, and chefs alike. We believe food should be a centerpiece of your celebration, not an afterthought. There is no comparison between boutique catering and more typical approaches that involve food cooked off site.

The Consultation
Your consultation will be with one of our chefs, not a sales rep. It will be a relaxed, curious conversation centered around your story, preferences, and vision. Expect questions like:

• • • How and where did you meet?

    • What do you do for work, and where did you go to school?

    • What did you grow up eating? What do you love now?

    • Are there places in the world that hold culinary or cultural meaning for you?

    • What’s the most memorable meal you’ve ever had?

    • What are three foods you wouldn’t want to live without?

    • What’s your favorite vegetable? Favorite meat?

    • Do you enjoy spice? If so, what’s your favorite spicy dish?

    • If you could dream big, what would your wedding meal look and feel like?

    • Are there any allergies or dietary needs we should be aware of?

By learning who you are, we shape an experience that’s yours and yours alone. From there, we build a menu draft together.

Here's What to Expect After a Consultation
Once we consult with our team, we’ll confirm whether everything aligns for us to move forward. Within about a week, we’ll send you a draft proposal (or a few options), and invite you to leave direct comments in a shared Google Doc. This is where your vision continues to shape our collaborative ideas.

    • A tone of calm precision and care
