Mike Diem Catering was excellent and professional. Food was very good and ALL my guests were more than pleased and raved about the pasta salad. We had 40 guests and several took some food home with them. I highly recommend Meals per Diem Catering and would definitely hire him again.

Mike did a great job catering a meal for my family (20 people). It was the first time both sides of the family were meeting, and we didn't want to have to stress about food. Mike brought everything by right on time with warming trays. Really made the evening go smoothly. The food was great! Mike had no trouble accommodating the gluten-free requirement. Be sure to ask about the flourless chocolate cake!!

We had a cooking class for 4 girls in our kitchen. He was perfect for working with the 12 year old girls! They had a really fun time. He was engaging with them with about cooking and also had a great sense of humor. There was a lot of laughter and fun. The menu he chose was interesting and appropriate for their skills. All the ingredients and cookware were included. He contacted us quickly and returned all messages promptly and was very punctual. We had an excellent event.

I've had the pleasure of working with Mike for two events. Both times, Mike delivered delicious meals that he crafted within my small budget. He was responsive, on time, and delivered to wherever I needed! And, I would be remiss if I didn't talk about the food! It was delicious. Everyone raved about it. For the small budget I had, I was blown away at what Mike was able to create. He is a culinary mastermind and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caterer.

Michael did a chef event for the bridal shower I was hosting in Des Moines. We did a type of food demonstration for the ladies, with Michael cooking "Live" and describing everything he was preparing. It was such a hit! The ladies raved on about how delicious all the food was and about the lovely presentation. I was personally very impressed by Michael's professionalism and attention to detail. The food was so beautiful and he worked quickly and meticulously to present an amazing event. Beyond happy with the service I received!
