Working with Chef and her incredible team was an absolute pleasure. The food was nothing short of spectacular—every dish was beautifully prepared and delicious. I couldn’t be more grateful for the care and professionalism Chef and her staff brought to my Friendsgiving event. They went above and beyond to make the evening truly special. Without a doubt, I’ll be hiring The Kookery for all my future events, and I highly recommend you do the same. Thank you, Chef, for an unforgettable evening

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We offer up front pricing and packages so there will be no additional, unexpected fees.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After the initial contact here on Thumbtack I will email you our current menu of all our services. Once we have menu selections I will draft a proposal/ estimate for your approval. A deposit is required to save the date! But we can still fine tune the details all the way up to a few days before the event when the balance is paid.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have done everything in the kitchen from washing dishes to expediting busy restaurants and creating recipes. Worked for world renowned catering company serving events like the Oscars and more.
