Pricing
We are a small outfit. Initially, we started as just a couple of guys with tons of Food & Beverage expertise who, on occasion, did some cooking for friends. As such, every menu was discussed in detail, always with the client’s budget in mind. This is the way we liked to work with friends, and how we continue to work with every potential new client. Every person has a budget. Some budgets have room to maneuver. Others, not so much. Either way, Chef Tod is ready and willing to work with each individual client and his or her budget. By answering a few simple questions, like the number of guests, the general food presentation - buffet, sit-down dinner, passed hors d'oeuvres - staffing, and budget, Tod can present you with a preliminary menu that you can adjust until you are completely satisfied.
