Beyond Delicious - Truly Unforgettable!!
I had my heart set on the mini squash from our tasting, and even though Chef Ed didn’t promise anything (he’s all about serving only what’s in season at its absolute peak, which we loved), he made it happen—and it was just as dreamy as I remembered. Truly above and beyond!
Working with Chef Ed and his team was an absolute joy—they’re professional, kind, and so easygoing. Everything they prepared, from cocktail hour mini burgers and grilled cheese with tomato soup to the main meal, was a hit with every single guest. We were over the moon, and honestly, our wedding food set a whole new standard. We cannot recommend Chef Ed and his team enough—they are nothing short of magical!

I had the great pleasure of working with Kiss the Chef, at Ally & Mike's Windmill Winery wedding. From the start; Michael was so wonderfully accommodating; making sure their menu was just as they desired, and loved that he was double-checking to make sure each and every choice was just as they had planned. Ally and I attended the open house at the Winery; just before their wedding~ going over everything, and Michael and Ed went over-the top; making sure all would be set perfectly for their wedding day. Loved that special care they gave the bride! Not only is the food amazingly delicious, but they are extremely accommodating and easy to work with. Loved the kindness and all their help with the day-of set-up, the sparking glasses and flatware, and their presentation is wonderful! I hope to work with them again; it was a perfect day! Thanks so much Michael and Ed!!
