Took on a fun challenge with some creative 🫛 vegetarian dishes (with a little indulgence sprinkled in 😉).

I didn’t get photos of every course, but each dish was a joy to make, and even better to share. The whole meal came together beautifully.

Seeing the Butler House in person was such a treat. The historic details and cozy atmosphere truly made the evening feel extra special.

A big thank you to for the lovely referral! I was so grateful for the chance to cook and serve this special dinner in one of Niagara’s most stunning heritage homes.

This group from 2022, and now here in 2025, holds a special place in my heart. They were some of my very first batch of clients visiting the Niagara region!

From tasting my Paella Medalla and seafood dishes to meat and Mexican food, this group is definitely full of foodies.

One of the guests is gluten-free this year, and I was able to make everything gluten-free! so lucky for us, their Mexican cuisine and dishes requests are perfect for that!

Here’s a little throwback to your celebration! though some of the dishes didn’t quite make it into the photos. It's been so amazing to watch each of you tie the knot, and what a journey it’s been!

A huge thank you to my client for trusting me with this special event and for referring me to her friend , It makes me so happy to see my past clients and I'm incredibly grateful for their continued love, support and referrals.

🥩 Course 3: A rare, top-secret custom steak cut (known only to true steak lovers) that had to be specially requested from the butcher a cut so exclusive it’s not even available for general sale.Paired with triple-herb marinated roasted root vegetables, hasselback potatoes, charred onions, merlot wine sauce reduction, and a savory mushroom duxelle with garlic confit.

-an unforgettable main course for the steak connoisseur.

🍒 Desserts:Cherry banana amaretto foster.

This colorful, flavorful baked sushi is a fun way to share a meal with friends and family. 🌈🍣🥢

It's easy to customize, sustainable, and incredibly delicious, especially with the addition of a creamy drizzle of Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise. It's the perfect choice for any occasion.

This dish embodies "The New Sharing" by bringing people together around a vibrant, customizable meal. The vibrant colors and diverse flavors stimulate the senses, creating a multi-sensory experience. The communal act of assembling and sharing the dish fosters connection and conversation, making it more than just a meal. It's a shared experience that brings joy and togetherness.
