Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
Pricing is based on portions, the cost of the products and preparation times. A custom menu is created for each client. A 26% event fee is added to all events which applies to your food costs, labor, and any additional costs. Taxes are calculated off your subtotal including your event fee. Gratuity is a reward for great service, which is solely at the customer’s discretion.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

unfold fold
Our goal is to create an event in the image that the customer has imagined. We will work with their menu requests to find the best possible options within their budget.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
Chef and Owner Julie Aubrey has managed restaurants for over 14 years and owned one of the premier event destinations for two years (Pagoda Restaurant). We cater many high end events, such as the Mayor's Gala, Zoo to Do, Sertoma, corporate events and luncheons and private parties/functions as drop offs or full service. We were voted #1 by The Knot magazine and have a great catering reputation. We were just voted "Best Sweets" for our dessert cones by three of the area's top professional food critics!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
Always consider the quality and reputation of a service provider. The cheapest menu or lowest deposit may not be the best option. You will want to have confidence in the menu that is planned and knowing that your date is secure.
