Introduction
Hello, my name is Marcus Childs. I am a culinary arts graduate from Sullivan University and Lorain County Joint vocational school. My passion for cooking first started at a young age when my grandparents would let me get a feel in the kitchen. I loved making pancakes from scratch that my grandfather taught me or grilling ribs and then making baked macaroni and cheese with some cornbread from scratch from my grandmother just to name a few. At 15 I knew what I wanted to do in life and I found my gift from God. I’ve been catering and doing private events since 2012 and I must say, I love it. I love people and I love cooking and creating amazing dishes. Hiring me for your small or big event you’re getting me as your contact and face that’s present as well. Just in the past year we have done over 50 weddings up to 400 guest, corporate events, anniversaries, reunions and private personal events as well. I’m thankful for each call and or email we receive and we try to be responsive as quickly as possible because we want you to know how important your event is to us. Let’s talk soon

This man and his team are amazing! They were on time, amazing at set up, and the food tasted so good! Everyone kept asking how where we found the caterer and my father in law took a plate home for himself. I honestly can't say how blown away we were. We had a taste testing before our wedding and it was good, but this food was 10 times better! I'm referring them to everyone who needs catering for an event.

ChefsPrep Culinary was so professional. He always communicated with me to make sure we were on the same page with details. He was very nice and respectful! The food was absolutely AMAZING! And the presentation was beautiful! My guests and I couldn’t stop talking about how good the food was and how well it was prepared. Definitely recommend ChefsPrep Culinary, and I can’t wait to book him for our next event!

We invited Chefsprep to cater our annual band banquet at our high school.
