Introduction

Harvest & Revel is a full service, boutique event catering company based out of Brooklyn, NY. For adventurous and thoughtful eaters who care about taste and well-being, we are the alternative catering company offering well-sourced and creatively cooked food with style as well as ethics and health consciousness. With every detail- we help facilitate refreshingly positive, artful, and satisfying events and meals for all occasions. Unlike most other caterers, Harvest & Revel does not have set menus because we customize every menu that we create, responding to the vision of each client. Directed by this vision, we draw upon the ingredients and flavors being offered by the current season to design a memorable and delicious culinary experience. Also unlike most private event caterers and private chefs in New York, we always work with all-natural ingredients that are at the peak of their seasonal freshness. We focus on celebrating the natural flavors of the food and helping them to shine. It is our goal for you to walk away from your event feeling positive about your consumption, knowing how each of your dishes was crafted, and where they came from. We enjoy working with clients to customize an event specific to their vision. Since we are a full service catering company- we can provide staffing, ice packages, coffee & tea service, disposable plateware, and event decorations. We also work closely with rental, floral, day-of-coordination, and DJ partners and can coordinate all of those services and consolidate them onto one bill- thus eliminating much of the headache that comes with planning events. Looking forward to working with you!

I hired Bed Stuy Kitchen to provide finger foods for a cocktail party I was hosting. I didn't know exactly which foods I wanted, so I gave the owner, Sara, a simple list of some allergies a few of my guests had and allowed her to come up with a menu. Not only were the various bites delicious, they arrived early and were beautifully plated. There was something for everyone at my event and everyone continued to ask me who catered the event. Me running out of her business cards to hand out was the only disappointment!! I expect Bed Stuy Kitchen will be getting a few calls from my guests. I intend to use Bed Stuy Kitchen for any future events I host. Thanks Again Sara and all of Bed Stuy Kitchen!

I recently held a launch event with an invite list of over 50 guests, and I was stressing about a caterer. Everyone I called was either too expensive, didn't have enough dishes to meet the dietary restrictions of my guests, or the menu just didn't look appetizing. I met Sara at a community event in our neighborhood (we both live in Bed Stuy), and I was complaining about how unaffordable and unhealthy the catering options were available to us in our neighborhood. After just one minute of Sara telling me about her private catering service I knew it was the perfect fit. I don't know if it was her genuine passion for healthy eating or her charisma for her work in the community, but I loved working with Sara from start to finish. She even came to the venue and gave me an in person consultation as to what dishes she thought would be best for the event, and included ingredients I told her I could not live without! (avocado please!) The result? Happy guests who could not get enough of Sara's delectable dishes. The vegans, the vegetarians, the pescatarians, gluten free, and of course the carnivores asking me who had curated such wonderful treats! I look forward to working with Sara again. She is definitely my go-to chef for all my catering needs.

I searched high and low for a caterer for my husband's birthday bash, and I'm so glad that I found Bed Stuy Kitchen. They're all about healthy, yummy, beautifully presented food, which is exactly what I was looking for. I got in touch with them about a week before the party, and they were a dream to work with. Sara Elise was out of the country, but she answered all of my emails and concerns in a very timely manner. We finalized our menu through email, and confirmed everything over the phone once she returned. Even though it was three days before the event and I was a little nervous, Sara Elise calmed my fears and said, "Don't worry. Everything is going to be great!" Well, she was right. On the day of the event, she and her partner, Ora, arrived two hours before start time (and even before I got there). They started to work their magic and within no time, they had had a beautiful and stunning table set up with their deliciously scrumptious creations! I had a buffet-style, stationary hors d'oeuvres-type party and here are some things on my menu: rye bread with homemade arugula pesto, creamy local burrata, caramelized onions, and frizzled prosciutto; mushroom ricotta puffs with roasted garlic thyme; lemon-leek meatballs, carrot puree; herbed chicken puffs with sharp cheddar, caramelized onion; Chive saffron cakes with fresh ricotta lemon radish. All my guests raved about the food. So many of them asked me for business cards. I was so proud! Thanks to Sara Elise and Ora for making my husband's party such a huge success! They were lovely from beginning to end, and they even made sure that I was fed when they found out that I hadn't eaten a thing all night!

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We love hearing about our client's vision for their event before providing them with a quote. If they would like to proceed, they fill out a deposit form and we create a customized menu for them. The deposit form does not mean that the client is committing to the initial menu we provide for them- but it just means that they are committing to working with us for their catering needs. From there, we can edit the menu as much as the client sees fit to make sure that all of their desires are accounted for. We can also handle rentals, staffing, beverages, coffee & tea service, takeaway treats for guests, table design, and disposables if needed as well.
What types of customers have you worked with?
We provide private chef services for various families and artist retreats in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the Hamptons; provide catering in corporations, schools, community art centers, and private homes for birthday parties, baby showers, weddings, bat and bar mitzvahs, seasonal brunches, dinner parties, cocktail parties, etc.; as well as provide nutrition and holistic wellness mentorship for curriculum, mentorship programs, and individuals.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
It's helpful when clients come to us already knowing the type of meal they want to have catered (breakfast, brunch, lunch, cocktail hour, dinner, dessert, snacks, etc.), the number of guests (rough estimate), if the group has any pertinent allergies or dietary restrictions, the venue location and details (if there is a stove, oven, fridge, sink), and if they need any additional services such as rentals, staff, eco-friendly disposable plateware, bartender service, etc. It is also extremely helpful when clients have an idea of their budget and let us know it ahead of time.
