- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process begins with understanding your vision, preferences, and needs. First, you’ll submit an inquiry through my website with details about your event or requested service. You’re welcome to browse my menu and share any selections that interest you. If you’re unsure what you’d like, simply tell me what catches your eye, your preferred flavors, or the type of experience you envision, and I’ll curate a customized menu proposal tailored to your needs. We’ll discuss your guest count, event details, budget, and any dietary requirements or special requests. Once the menu and proposal are finalized, we’ll confirm your booking and payment arrangements. Payments are processed securely through Stripe, which supports various payment methods, including credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Link, and ACH direct debit, where available. From there, I’ll handle the agreed-upon preparations to deliver a seamless, delicious, and memorable culinary experience. At Chef Sadi, every menu is thoughtfully curated to reflect your vision and make your occasion special!
