Christine worked closely with me to plan a reception following the installation service for our new pastor. We had an estimated number of attendees from the rsvp. However, as we got closer to the event, the number of attendees increased. Christine worked hard to keep our church's costs as affordable and responsible as possible. She created a varied menu that was delicious and appealing. She set up beautiful tables for different food displays, coordinating table coverings with our flowers, and recommended a great lay-out to accomodate the space for guests and her staffs' movements to/from the kitchen. She made two cakes: one to be on display on the dessert table, and one to cut and serve. Christine and her staff were friendly, helpful, and very genial. From our first meeting to the last of the clean-up, I was impressed and pleased with what she accomplished to make our church event so special.

Christine was an absolute pleasure to do business with. I wanted a well respected local entrepreneur who still cares about the elegance of food. Christine provided a elegant menu to cater my Delaware County Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting/ after hours event for my new office with Citadel in Glen Mills Pa. Christine worked within budget and provided a wonderful assortment of food. Everyone raved about the food. Christine is detail oriented, so the presentation was lovely. I am looking forward to hosting other events this year both personal and professional , where I can utilize her services. If you want a delightful food experience, you can't go wrong with selecting Christine for your next event!
