Wandering Chef Oregon

09/13/2024

Early morning in Elkton and we are gearing up for what's going to be a blast of a weekend at the 2nd Annual Bluegrass and Butterflies festival! This event was such a hit last year that they've added an extra day! Don't let the misty morning fool you- the forecast is for sun and fun! The music kicks off at 3:00 p.m. and goes all weekend. Come for the day or a whole weekend of great people, great music, and of course, great food! We can't wait to see you there!

Hello Wanderers

As many of you already know Mrs Wanderingchef took an amazing new job. We moved to the Eugene area, and are shut down temporarily until we finish the move. I will still be available for parties an events, in the summer (depending on sizes and location) and will not open for daily service.

I appreciate everyone that has wandered my way and I look forward to cooking more awesome food for you again!

Thank you

We put ourselves back in action today for a cause that's near and dear to our hearts- child abuse prevention and awareness. We're at Warm Springs Academy for the KIDS Center's awareness event today, and we'll be at Sahalie Park from 4-6 next Wednesday for the same thing! Come get some pulled pork and mac!

Hey Wanderers- as you may know, Mrs. Wandering Chef and I are pretty crazy about dogs and enjoy supporting various animal rescues. Mrs. Wandering Chef volunteers with Northwest Boxer Rescue and has offered me up as part of Northwest Boxer Rescue's online charity auction, which is live now. If you live in Central Oregon you can bid on me to cater a small event for up to six people, teach a cooking class for up to six people in your home, or even just have me come fill your freezer with reheatable deliciousness. They also have a ton of other fun items up for grabs, so go get your bid on and help some Boxers in need!

Hi Wanderers- the ever-increasing cost of food and operations has forced us to make a hard choice-- either use lower-quality ingredients or raise our prices. Neither of those options are acceptable to us, so for the time being, sadly, we are pausing our regular lunch service until food prices stabilize or we find a better way to serve you quality food that you can enjoy (and afford) and that we can be proud to serve. We will still continue to offer catering for events, cooking classes or parties, or other special services. We hope to be back in regular action in the spring, and in the meantime don't hesitate to reach out for any holiday cooking needs. Love, Chef Tom. 💙
