Excellent food, Excellent Service, Excellent People

Alanna and company are the absolute best. The Cruisin' Chef catered our 60 person backyard wedding in central Michigan and wow did we make a good choice here. Alanna took time to setup an outdoor tasting in the center of COVID at a park when we thought it was unlikely we'd even be able to do a tasting. She served us the entire menu, talked us through our choices, helped us out thinking through a ton of stuff regarding the wedding (not just catering related), and was super responsive and agreeable throughout the entire process. On the day of her and her staff showed up on time, prepared, were courteous and professional, worked very well with our coordinator, and best of all the food was very, very good. The prime rib was delicious and the sides were perfect. Genuinely cannot say enough about what a great job they did and would highly recommend.

Excellent Service!

Pete Lieber, the Cruisin' Chef, prepared a delicious meal for my wedding dinner (which was held at The Ginkgo Tree Inn that Pete and his wife own). My husband and I opted to serve a thanksgiving meal family style since we're thankful to have found each other and our ceremony was very family-focused. I received many compliments about the food and even more about the outstanding service, and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.
