What Clients Are Saying
"We did the Kitchen Challenge last year for one of our summer intern events and it was voted the best event of the summer. It was a no-brainer to do it again."

"The lead chef was perfect for the event. She kept things exciting and fun and made sure everything ran on time. The best part of the party was the chance to collaborate and work with our peers."
Lauren Walker, Concur
"Fresh and wonderful ingredients, delicious recipes, and…GREAT COOKS! Everybody was engaged, and even our ‘skeptic’ was won over! He was amazed and said he had a great time!"
Randall Hall, Transamerica Retirement Services
