*Serious inquiries only. Please note that Thumbtack typically charges professionals between $40-$50 each time they receive an inquiry. I have been in the restaurant/catering business for 20 years. I was the chef/owner of Smallwares restaurant in Portland for 7 years. I then teamed up with my partner to do catering. Our experience in catering over the years involve small dinners in homes, weddings, company parties and many more. We work on a smaller scale and love to customize menus for people and work within budgets. My partner Nathan and I have a vast range of cooking experience in many different cuisines. We have worked in top New York restaurants, farm to table bakeries, Italian, Indian, Texas Bbq and of course everything in between. We love high end and low end cooking. We strive to guarantee a wonderful experience no matter what the menu is.

Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your chef. I appreciate fresh, farm to table food, served in a visually enticing manner with a touch of white linen. I pride myself in knowing the provenance of the food I serve my guests. Because I firmly believe that you are what your food eats, and it's so important to know where your food is grown, raised or sourced from. My intake procedure focuses on your desired tastes as well as any food sensitivities and all allergies that need to be considered as well. My specialties are locally sourced farm-to-table produce, sustainable meats and seafood and featuring Oregon cheese tasting flights expertly paired with the finest Oregon wines and tasty garnishes. Some of my creations and outstanding reviews from my past patrons are available here on my Thumbtack profile. So, from carnivore to keto, gluten free and vegan ( or all the above! ), I can cook the meals YOU truly want. Feel free to reach out to me for a sample menu or if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you. Blessings, Chef David -
