About
Hey there, hungry humans 👋
I’ve been cooking up events for 15 years — from cozy dinners for four to festivals feeding 10,000 a day. Kansas City even thought I was tasty enough to nominate me for Best Chef and Best Catering (KC Pitch)🏆 (blush).
I don’t do cookie-cutter menus (unless you want actual cookies). Everything is fresh, flavorful, and 100% custom.
Let’s stir up something unforgettable together — your guests will be talking about the food long after dessert disappears. 🍽️✨

An absolutely delightful experience. Chef Caleb cooked for my family and I. We chose some spaghetti and meatballs from his menu and it was by far the best spaghetti any of us have had. Everything was homemade, lots of sides, and the chef cleaned up after!! He was so nice and fun to have in the house. Best dinner experience. Very affordable, especially considering everything you get!

The best catering decision we’ve ever made. Chef Caleb handled everything — menu planning, dietary needs, rentals — and the food was OUTSTANDING. Our guests were talking about the chateaubriand for days.”

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All caterings are custom. So all pricing is custom. We can do anything you want. I have low overhead because I also do meal prep, so Catering or private chef events are not the only source of revenue. I am happy to just make you happy.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I listen, ask relevant questions and over deliver. I am pretty responsive. I am not a procrastinator. So expect to hear back real soon.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BS in Communications, AS in Culinary Arts. I have ran large food manufacturing company shipping food across the country. I have done large festivals, small weddings, and everything in between.
