FAQs

How much notice do I need to give you for catering?

Usually, 3-4 weeks is fine. We like to meet with you to help plan the menu and discuss your needs. Then, an estimate is sent to you and a deposit is required 2 weeks before the event.

Can I make some of my favorite dishes and have you make others?

That’s no problem. We’re happy to work with you to do some or all of the cooking. Even if you love to cook, sometimes it’s nice to have a few things prepared that you don’t have to worry about.

Do you provide rentals and servers?

We can handle all the party rentals for you and can usually provide servers or, if not, can recommend outside serving companies.

How can I contact other customers for references?

We are happy to provide references from past clients so you can ask any questions you might have.

My passion for cooking began as a child spending time in the aromatic kitchens of my Irish and Armenian grandmothers. Early on, I learned that good food is a wonderful way to show how much you care for friends and family.

After a career in advertising, I pursued my dream and attended Cambridge School of Culinary Arts. Upon graduating in 2004, I started my own personal chef and catering business specializing in fresh ideas for entertaining. Since then, I have brought my experience in creating memorable food to everything from weddings to intimate dinners for two.

Two other things to know about me is that my passion for travel and wine, particularly that of the Tuscany and Burgundy regions, have influenced my cooking and ingredients. Also, I love working with clients to put together unique menus reflecting their tastes, so don’t be surprised if I ask a lot of questions to find out what you truly want.

When not cooking for others, I’m busy raising three children in Medfield, MA, discovering local artisanal foods, and tending my garden.
