About
When you let me cater for you, I cook from the heart. I make food to your taste that will delete you and make the whole experience effortless for you. My whole goal is to make food that will be remembered. Long after the event is over and to have people ask you who made that meal for us? So if you let me with my 10 years of cooking experience and culinary change, cook for you, I will make sure you enjoy your food and the overall experience.

We were tasked with getting a caterer for our office party for retiring manager. She was an awesome boss (the company owner not so much), so we really wanted something special. Nenna can up with a nice chicken pasta with sides of fruit and cheese. She paired it with a white wine that I cannot remember (I had several glasses). She even provided separate pasta dishes for a couple vegetarian employees. Everyone had a great time, and we bring it up ever once in awhile, so hopefully our new boss will do it again.

Deliciously fresh and healthful meal pairings. Also, the variety of world cuisine and tastes that expand my appreciation of previously unknown spices and herbs, then back to the local comfort meal offerings of my youth.
Thank you, Nenna!

Nenna is such an amazing chef! Her capabilities in the kitchen are astounding. She serves the best elevated dishes that almost always have her signature kick to it! Never too spicy, but just enough to enhance flavor profiles and taste buds. Her portions are perfect-she creates a satifying meal without feeling too full. Book her for your next event, you wont regret it!
