Easy quick and simple with beautiful results!

We hired Dawn to cater our daughter's beach wedding. She was very easy to communicate with, and she can create a dynamic menu. Her food was absolutely delicious. Her dishes and presentation were perfect. She set up and cleaned up with zero fuss or problems at all. I would not hesitate to hire her again.

complete perfection

After searching and dealing with large corporations and over priced businesses, I found Chef Cathy and her team on thumbtack. She was kind, willing, adaptable and her communications were spot on. She made made it very simple to cater 100 of our guest.
After we first reached out to Chef Cathy, we planned a in home catering visit. She came over and prepared everything that we had asked for, my wife and I felt like royalty the way she treated us. As the day of our wedding approached, she kept in full contact, ensuring us everything was going to plan.
On our wedding day Chef Cathy and her team were one of the first ones to arrive at the venue. She had everything set up and strategically placed for guest to come through (all appetizers and main dinner).
"The Dinner" was absolutely delicious! We had the Fajitas for our dinner and she killed it! She made everything by scratch and everything had a unique and perfect taste. As the night went on, she reset the buffet which allowed guest to come back for seconds, thirds or just to come by and make a nacho plate.
I couldn't have ask for a better person to caterer our wedding. CHEF CATHY is a must have at your wedding or catering event!

Wonderful, magical evening with Dawn

Dawn did an amazing job for our wedding. The food was 'amazing', 'delicious', and 'soulful' (actual quotes from my family). Cooking for a tough crowd like my family is a difficult task and she exceeded expectations.

Great food!

They did an amazing job for my daughter's wedding. The food was delicious. Rave reviews from our guests.
Dawn was able to make changes to the menu to match the vegan, gluten-free, and dairy free dietary restrictions. Cooking for a tough crowd is a difficult task and they exceeded expectations.
