We hired Chef Cheryl to cook a three course meal for our bachelorette group of 8 and did a surf and turf theme. I was almost full on the delicious ceviche starter and charcuterie she set up for us as we waited for dinner. Dinner was served family style, leaving plenty for leftovers the next day which I was so excited about. Everything was so gourmet and plated beautifully, that it felt like an incredible value to be able to have seconds and leftovers the next day. The steak with chimchurri sauce and the salmon were divine, but the sides: roasted potatoes, carrots and cabbage are not to be left out, as they complimented the entrees perfectly. She even made us these amazing maple cheesecake bites for dessert and the maple was sourced directly from maple trees at a dear friend of chefs just that very weekend. How special is that?! I would recommend Chef Cheryl to anyone in the dmv area. She was very responsive, helpful and efficient. The addition of Rooted En Flavor to our weekend made everyone feel just a little bit fancier :) 10/10 recommend.

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • Dessert • American - formal • Italian • Southern • Mexican / Latin American • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • French • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

Wonderful experience with Rooted En Flavor. I used Thumbtack for the first time Ever and this caterer was very responsive from the first inquiry. She sounded professional. Her web page was sharp. So I took a chance on a company where I had no referral nor personal experience. I gave her my vision and sent pictures of the venue. My budget was shaky in the beginning but I was able to shore it up. She was willing to work with my change in budget amounts. Phenomenal flavor and she provided an on-site server. She matched my vision EXACTLY. spot on! I highly recommend Rooted En Flavor. My event was a reception for a favorite Penn State MBA Professor/Advisor. Alumni spanning 20 years met in DC for this event.

Details: Corporate event • Cocktail hour or hors d'oeuvres • American - Southern • Mediterranean or Middle Eastern • American - casual • Food stations • Yes, full service • Community center • Yes, partial kitchen (fridge and sink only) • 40 - 49 guests • Disposable plates, utensils, and cups • Serving and warming equipment • Table décor • Paper napkins • I'm flexible

Could not be happier or more impressed with the food and service provided by Cheryl. The food was absolutely amazing. Cheryl was very responsive throughout the process and created the perfect menu for our dinner. Each course was delicious and the filet with the blueberry sauce was one of the best steaks I have ever had.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All pricing is negotiable and menus are custom made for each client. We are able to offer more substantial discounts for larger parties as opposed to smaller groups. We always charge by the number of people and ingredient type and only source from quality vendors.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We reach out to gather more information, send over a custom menu with pricing based off our call, upon acceptance we send over a contract and invoice for 50% deposit payable via a secure online link.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a Mediterranean trained chef but can cook multiple styles. We fly around the world twice a year to study under different chefs in different countries so we may bring those nuances back home to the U.S.
