Who We Are
Chef John Oliver Evans cooks with style, sophistication and a touch of “Funkiness”. He is the Owner and Lead Visionary of Funky Fresh. His love of the culinary arts began at a very young age, cooking whole hog bbq with his father. He officially debuted his pop-up dining experience in Wilmington, followed by working alongside notable chefs in the Raleigh area. He then became a chef for a national pork chain assisting in their national food shows. John Oliver later officially opened Funky Fresh and began to focus specifically on weddings.
His wife, Pamela Evans, is the Lead Coordinator for their team. She handles all things communication and logistics and makes sure you have a smooth wedding journey. She worked as a Financial Advisor for RBC Wealth Management for 17 years. As their business grew, she transitioned full-time to Funky Fresh six years ago. Because of her background, she understands and appreciates the financial commitment weddings take and works with our couples and their families to make sure their vision is executed.

Professional Network & Endorsements

Pam and John Oliver are a great team and they provide a wonderful food experience from the pre-wedding tasting all the way to the end of the wedding reception dinner service. You will undoubtedly be pleased with your selection of caterers if you go with Funky Fresh!
Please don't confuse Funky Fresh with the "street trucks" commonly associated with food trucks. They have a mobile kitchen in a truck so that everything is prepared fresh on site. They are full service, sit down or buffet. The food is beyond imagination. We can't wait to have them here again. Yum
