Introduction: After years of working as a Private Chef in California, Chris’ reputation for great food and amazing customer service was getting him noticed. In 2006, he introduced Chris Brugler Catering which quickly found its place as one of Los Angeles’ premier caterers. With clients like Disney, Valentino, Volkswagon, Netflix, Cartier, and Tory Burch; Chris Brugler Catering is on the forefront of culinary excellence. With Chris at the helm of so many large events he has had the opportunity to train and create great relationships with cooks who became chefs that eventually ran large scale events for Chris when he had multiple events on the same night. Chris never would have imagined doing so many dinners each weekend from LA, Palm Springs to San Diego but he is positioned perfectly by calling on his amazing team that he has cultivated over the last 15 years to be the executing onsite chef. Chris has taken the positive out of the current situation and shifted his focus to growing the business, client relations and handling all of the prep and organization so the consistency is the same for each dinner. This also allows his large team to continue to work and thrive in these uncertain times. Not being the executing chef on every dinner has allowed him more time with his son Oliver (AKA O Dog) who loves being in the kitchen and creating his own recipes and plating style. Chris uses locally sourced, seasonal products and prides himself on using nothing but the finest and freshest ingredients to deliver you an unforgettable meal. Now with catering and private chef services that extend nationwide, Chris Brugler is a household name. With more than 20 years of experience, Chris Brugler's passion for food has never wavered. He has been working diligently on recipes for those in need of clean and healthy dining options as well, knowing that you don't have to sacrifice flavor to eat healthy. He established safe handling and food service practices that needed no change to comply with recent pandemic guidelines and has ensured clean, safe, and wipeable storage for his delivery services as well. Pandemic Guidelines: Our team takes temperature upon arrival, prior to entering the clients home Maintains 6 feet of social distancing Sanitize work space before, throughout, and after use Wears masks Wears gloves Ensures proper food handling and follows all CDC Guidelines

We hired Chris Brugler Catering to host a 10-Person Dinner Party in our backyard. He sent out Quincy A.K.A "Q" as our personal chef for the night. "Q" blew away our expectations on every dish. I would highly recommend these guys if you're looking for a memory that will last a lifetime. Can't wait for the next one!

A true professional with an Aptitude for creativity, I would hire Chris again for any at home chef. He came true at time, helped with everything, had a great presentation of the food, and left with a clean kitchen. All the guests were impressed by the food and presentation. What else can I ask for?

Believe me when I say I give Chris 5 stars. We held a seated, plated dinner IN THE DESERT and they pulled off the flow of a meal like a 5 star restaurant. I was SO paranoid the food would be cold and it wasn't. The course transitions were smooth. The chef and his assistant were light hearted and on top of every moment. Even the wait staff and bartender Chris hired were clearly professionals. This staff was not just some 18 year old actors trying to meet some celebrities- these were experienced servers that know how a party should be conducted. I cannot thank Chris and his team enough. I strongly recommend. Oh... and did I mention the food was extremely delicious. I recommend the Slow Braised Short Rib and the White Chocolate Challah Bread Pudding.
