I’m not sure if a homemade version was necessary BUT Tom did a great job with his rendition of Cheez Its.

I love walking through the space before all the guests enter the room. I can imagine how the couple feels as they come in to do their first looks.
Congratulations to Paige and Bryce!

This past spring we had the opportunity to work with Michelin Star chef Michael Diaz de Leon for an event. Chef gave me the leftover marinade we used for the leg of lamb. I froze it with the intent to use it in my own lamb dinner. Instead, I decided to use chicken thighs. One word. INCREDIBLE.

Most people usually don’t choose the vegetarian option at weddings. But then they haven’t had our vegetarian option. 😋

It was a weekend of burgers and sandwiches and let me tell you, it didn’t disappoint.
And for you cheese curd lovers out there, Wisconsin really has the best. (Unfortunately, we devoured it before I got a chance to take a pic).

Beautiful weather to spend time in our backyard. Tom’s smoker took on a pork shoulder and the smoker won. It took a long time but well worth it. Juicy and tender, this is my favorite smoked item yet!

As I’ve always believed, you eat with your eyes before you eat with your mouth. Color and texture becomes just as important as flavor.

Mini taco. Major flavor. I love using whatever ingredients I have in the fridge to fill up these little guys. This time it’s tuna tartare. Happy Friday!

It was a fun Gurrl’s birthday lunch! You may not be able to tell, but this was a great grilled Caesar salad. I opted to add crispy pork belly, which gave it a nice salty component.
(And you can never have too much fresh grated Parmesan. 😅)

It was a beautiful weekend for a beautiful wedding! So fun to be a part of this event!

Leftover grad food makes the best snacks! Happy Friday! ☺️

It’s another busy wedding week. I’m going back to my happy place with ramen.

What a fun season of grad parties so far! Congratulations to Jasmine and all her friends! Can’t wait to see where life takes all of you. 🎓

Easiest midweek dinner. (Especially when Tom’s doing the cooking 😁).
Getting ready for a fun, but busy weekend!

All this rain gets me in a soup kind of mood. This time it’s one of my favorites: wonton noodles with shrimp dumplings. I didn’t have any chicken or vegetable stock on hand so I opted to use beef stock. It gave the broth a more savory, umami flavor. Topped with baby bok choy, shiitake and woodear mushrooms, this dish was truly a winner!

Whether buffet or plated, I love the look on the bride’s and groom’s faces when they see the beautiful menu they put together. This was such a beautiful day for Sydney + Austin!

With Father’s Day coming up, do you have dad’s favorite beverage ready? Try a spin on his favorite cocktail.
Here’s my take on a Bloody Mary. It was inspired by one of my favorite eateries up north. Why stop with just a beef jerky stick?
(This drink is also great as a Virgin Bloody Mary, but hey, we’re celebrating, right? 😉)

I love sparkling water so Tom got me a sparkling water maker at Christmas. No ingredients are safe in our house.

Taking a break to recognize a wonderful milestone: Jasmine’s high school graduation!
I thought we were ready for this. I really did. Until yesterday, the morning of her graduation. Tom and Jacob sitting next to me didn’t help. Talking to other friends in the audience who were also there for their own kids’ graduations didn’t help. (And the hard metal benches we sat on definitely didn’t help.)
What DID help in that moment, however, was knowing that somehow Tom and I did a pretty good job raising this beautiful, confident young woman who literally sprouted before our eyes.
I remember when she first started working with me at tastings at 8 years old. She set the table, folded the napkins and watered the glasses. During one tasting, I remember hearing something in the corner and I realized she was spying from behind a stack of chairs.
From that moment to watching her run her last track meet at State Championships to yesterday’s graduation. We are all proud of her and I know ma is smiling down from Heaven.
To our dear Jasmine,
Dad and I are forever proud. You set high goals for yourself throughout high school and you literally surpassed them all. We are honored and blessed to call ourselves your parents. We know you will soar in life and like Bette Midler’s song, we will be the wind beneath your wings. We love you.

One of my favorite vegetarian dishes on our menu is the gnocchi with pesto cream sauce. I happened to have most of the ingredients in my fridge (except for feta cheese) and decided to make a big bowl for the fam. When you have something this flavorful, you don’t miss the protein!
(Although I can imagine some sautéed garlic shrimp on top…)

One of the things I love about this industry is the relationships Tom and I have built over the years. What started out as vendors became friends. What I took for granted in my earlier catering years is that you can’t do this job alone. It really does take a village to put together an incredible event. The planners, photographers, videographers, DJ, rental companies, production companies, venues, bartenders, florists, consultants, cake artists. The list goes on.
To all those who Tom and I have had the pleasure to meet and get to know, thank you for the friendship and laughter. To those we have not had the chance to meet, let’s get together for a coffee or a glass of wine.
Here we’re enjoying a night out with some vendor friends. 💚

As we were setting up for this event, I couldn’t help but admire the beauty of this room. It’s stunning even with no decor. The vibrant pop of color enhanced this already beautiful space.

I love it when families cook together. As the weather warms up, Tom’s smoker comes out. His latest and greatest is this smoked Chilean sea bass. Jacob made the Meyer lemon shallot oil. I roasted the Brussels sprouts. ☺️ What do you and your family like to cook (or do) together?

This classic Taiwanese braised pork rice was incredibly addictive! (As proven by a table of guests taking the whole platter and asking for another.) 😆
27/05/2024
Definitely one of my favorite cakes. Small, yet makes such a bold statement! Congratulations to Tiffany and Kenny!

Yesterday was a lovely day for some lobster tacos. Tom and I are going to plan a getaway weekend to Maine. Let us know if you have any recommendations for best lobster rolls. 🦞

When I’m waist deep in wedding season, I try to take care of myself by eating better, staying hydrated, exercising more regularly and getting proper sleep (of course this last one has been quite the challenge). I can’t be best for our clients if I’m not at my best.
What do you do to take care of yourself?

The high ceilings and columns of this space make for a stunning backdrop for Loida’s and Jeff’s beautiful wedding!

I couldn’t have asked for a better Mother’s Day! From the beautiful weather, delicious dinner and down to the family movie (that made me jump and scream more than once - sorry to Tom who almost spilled his wine).
Thank you to the best family a girl can have. 💚
(Homemade pasta, king crab legs and homemade chimichurri.)

What a fun night! This year’s Star Awards theme was cheeky academia. School cafeteria food but we like to put in our fun spin: house made pimento boats, shrimp cocktail, deviled eggs, “peanut butter and jelly” noodles. Don’t let the principal catch you eating in the hallway!
We wanted to try something new and fun for our company party this year.
And that’s a wrap. Happy New Year!
End of wedding season 2023 means it’s time to take a breather.
Another year doing what we love! Thank you to our family, friends, clients, venue partners and fellow vendors for supporting us along the way.
This was a great event! Thank you to Event Life TV for putting this together! See the full video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOzJCNFR6uc
Jasmine surprised me with this Mother’s Day video. I am so blessed to have the family that I have.
We have two VIP Wine Experiences coming up! The wine list has been selected and we’re currently working on the final menu. Check out our website to learn more about our wine events!
Want to know what’s it like for us to cater a wedding? Our Front of House and Back of House teams get so busy with our own tasks that we don’t always get to see what’s happening on the other side. When a video production company approached us to capture our behind the scenes action, it was an easy yes! Check out this video of a gorgeous wedding we catered in 2022.
