FOODesign by Chef Brech

From the get go they were very responsive to get ahold of and explained everything. I had a menu on my mind and when he quoted me I couldn't believe the price we got for as much food were getting! I asked if they could set up a taste testing. We drove 3 hours to Grand Rapids to do so ( a fun day date!) We arrive at his old bar/resturant I believe that he uses as there cooking quarters/office "I think" don't quote me on that. Anyhow we arrive to this dimmed light setting and a table set up for two candle lit just for us two. They start us out with this amazing bread and oil. Then shortly after bringing each dish we discussed I wanted out to us. It was such a cute experience and the food was incredible! We chose a chicken and a salmon, red skin potatoes, mac and cheese, asparagus, mixed veggie, cherry salad! We had a tiny miscommunication on the serving time wanted 530 but they were ready by 5. It all worked out great in the end and no one knew the diff. It was our fault as well since we went a little longer on our photos as well. I got a lot of compliments on how good the food was. We did run out of Salmon I heard before everyone got served. But then I also heard the chicken was the best they ever had! All in all everything turned out great and perfect! They cleaned up and were out of there fast as well! It sure does go by in a flash! Everyone loved the bartenders they were a hoot! All the employees were so sweet to us too! So the only tiny things were not enough salmon and not enough table covers to cover all the food tables but I gotta say those were some tiny problems that didn't even phase me in the end. I would hire them again for sure.

Our wedding was 10.4.14 at the Goei Center in GR. Steve was incredibly accomodating, easy to reach, and the food was amazing. The bartenders were such a hit, and all our guests have commented on the quality of our reception. Steve exceeded all of our expectations & we were thrilled with our event!

Steve catered a dinner for 22 at a condo club room. Arrangements with Steve were easy and he was responsive to emails and phone calls. The 3 staff who managed the event did a great job and were pleasant to work with - very unobtrusive during dinner. Overall, the food was excellent and we had more than enough of everything. The only negative was that the salmon we selected as one of our entrees was a bit dry, but I'm sure it's not easy to keep salmon moist when it has to be cooked 2-3 hours before the event. I would certainly use FOODesign again and recommend Chef Brech to others.

Chef Brech was amazing and his staff was extremely attentive to our needs. His Display of fruits and veggies had all guest enticed and delighted with taste! Though we had a non-alcoholic event The champagne punch was a hit amongst all and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Overall Steve was good but there were a few times we had trouble contacting him including the coordinator trying to the day before and day of the wedding. We felt the pricing was good and the food was good. A few minor details that were missed like getting the wrong bread at the wedding. He actually came to our house which was over 2 hours for him to do a sampler. Also dropped off linens the day before the wedding which was very nice. I would recommend but also suggest he needs to better communicate in the future.
