I cannot begin to explain how delightful it was to work with Chef Sam and his staff. My Wife and I hired him for our wedding reception where we hosted the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception for our small intimate wedding in a naked space in the French Quarter. To begin with, this was a wedding we planned in a week! Since we wanted to keep it small we decided why wait...let's do it now! Upon finding my space on a Monday I had until the following Friday to find a catering company that did it all. I simply did not have the time to coordinate food catering, table and chair rentals, flatware, plate and glass rentals, table clothes etc etc separately. I had to find someone who could coordinate all of those things and also have the customer service excellence to stay in contact with me throughout everything. Chef Sam is the one, he does it all!! Not only is he efficient but he is quick to respond, courteous, professional and detail oriented...even on a time crunch like ours. He got back to me right away after I emailed him with an inquiry through his website.He also coordinated via phone calls with my brother and sister-in-law who were helping me with all logistics. Since we rented a naked space we were already accepting the fact that we had to opt for a buffet, although we definitely preferred a formal sit down meal for our wedding but we couldn't be picky given the circumstances. Me and my wife both come from the food and beverage hospitality/management industry so we love the elegance of a sit down meal and our service standards are high, Chef Sam and his staff made it happen. His menu choices are plentiful and sophisticated. We had a stationary table of assorted tea sandwiches upon guest arrival which his staff ended up passing around which was convenient and a nice touch. After our garden ceremony we had a cocktail hour of passed hors d'oeuvres (4 Choices). Upon seating at our 30 person banquet styled table (that was beautifully adorned with the table cloths, napkins, flatware, plates and wine glasses that he so skillfully coordinated the rentals for), we were served a 3 course meal (salad, main, and dessert). Chef Sam was accommodating with vegetarian options for myself and several guests. The space had a kitchen with a large table where he had the space to do quick, efficient and multiple platings while preparing our courses for a flawlessly expedited and paced out dinner service. Dinner Choices: Chicken Provencal, Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms and Aged Rib Eye all including two sides that we pre-selected. After dinner his diligent staff cleared the tables and chairs for us to make room for a dance floor and carefully stored them away for the rental company to pick up the following Monday. They also did a great job cleaning up and leaving the kitchen the way they had found it. I had personally organized the bar, beverage and flower arrangements myself, however I know that Chef Sam offers to organize those in his repertoire of services which can be extremely helpful for others organizing a similar event. The quality of Chef Sam's customer service, food quality and the professionalism of his staff was amazing and completely up to par. I could not have pulled off the level of elegance we were looking for without Chef Sam. THANK YOU TO YOU AND YOUR STAFF!!
