Do you accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions?

Absolutely! We’re happy to tailor our menus to meet any allergies or dietary restrictions. We take pride in crafting dishes that align with your preferences and avoid any known aversions. To ensure a seamless experience, we kindly ask clients to inquire with their guests about any allergies or dietary needs beforehand. Please provide detailed information about the severity of any allergies when booking so we can make the necessary accommodations.

What is the minimum and maximum event size you accommodate?

We cater to events ranging from intimate gatherings of 2 to large celebrations of up to 200 guests. Depending on the dining style, we can discuss options for events exceeding 200 guests. Our culinary expertise extends beyond plated fine dining, and we’re passionate about crafting unique, personalized experiences to make your event truly special.

Do you provide décor or florals for the table?

Currently, we don’t offer décor or florals.

Do you bring plateware and silverware?

We don’t offer silverware or plateware. We will use what you have available at your house or event location. If you need additional plateware or silverware, it will need to be rented from another company. These providers offer a variety of high-quality options, including elegant ceramics and premium stemware, to ensure your event is beautifully equipped.

What does the day-of timeline look like?

On the day of your event, we’ll arrive approximately 1 hour before your guests to set up. Most meal preparation is done in our commercial kitchen, with final touches and cooking completed at your home or venue. Our team is experienced with a variety of kitchen spaces, ensuring a seamless experience. Once we arrive, you can relax and enjoy your event as a guest. After the celebration, we’ll efficiently pack up and clean, leaving your kitchen spotless—often even tidier than when we arrived.
