We work closely with clients to curate custom menus tailored to the style of their event and any dietary preferences. From intimate dinners to curated celebrations, we ensure every dish reflects both creativity and elegance.

Imagine: A flower pot overflowing with pumpernickel dirt coated in chorizo vinaigrette, a mushroom meringue dusted with dehydrated corn soup, and heirloom garden vegetables prepared three ways—each plate an edible work of art. Chef JacQues invites you on a sensory adventure that will forever redefine your appreciation of food.

Our signature Canapés and Petit Fours menu features lavish grazing boards, one-bite hors d’oeuvres, decadent canapés, and exquisite petit fours—all crafted with intention, artistry, and flair.

From his humble beginnings cooking beside his grandmother and mother during the holidays to becoming a full time private Chef JacQues continues to share his deep-rooted love of food through every service.

Supported by a team of talented chefs, butlers, mixologists, and sommeliers, we specialize in crafting extraordinary dining experiences. Your journey begins with a personalized menu consultation as we work collaboratively to bring your event to life—with warmth, professionalism, and unmatched attention to detail.
