Antoinette did a wonderful job! She pays special attention to details which creates an elegant ambiance... Pretty little vases with flowers.. Beautifully decorated platters, presentation of menu in a frame, and many other little unexpected treats. The food was delicious, tastefully presented and cooked to perfection. She is friendly , professional and most talented! Our friends thoroughly enjoyed the evening. We look forward to our next event with Antoinette !!

Chef Antoinette has been catering parties for me for years. From an outdoor BBQ for 20, on father's day to a beautiful holiday party for 80, in a blizzard, she never disappoints. She is so creative. Everything she does is beautifully presented as well as delicious. People are so impressed when they attend my parties, she usually gets a future job from one of my guests. My niece gave her mother 2 weeks notice for her wedding, and Chef Antoinette pulled it off without a hitch. Everything was amazing! I have already booked her for my holiday party in December, don't want to take the chance that someone else will get her first!!

Words cannot express the fabulous job you did catering and serving at my daughter's bridal shower. The guests raved about your food. It was different, delicious- and so creatively served. My personal favorites were the skewered peanut chicken- so beautifully displayed in the pineapple and the sliders. I also know that the brie with the fig jam was also a hit- the Orzo salad, crab cakes, I could go on and on with the favorites. Your thoughfulness and special touches were not missed: the pretty orchids, the candles in the artichokes, the way you displayed the food. We were all so impressed. After you left, we went in to the Church kitchen and you would have never known that you, Grace and your assistant were in there hours earlier cooking and assembling appetizers for a party of 46. We're still enjoying the leftovers- thanks for packing and labeling them. Is there anything you didn't think of?!!! I hope our paths will cross again! Thanks so much again for helping to make this a shower we won't soon forget. Teri
