Menu: The Favorites Collection

Emily was great. She is very personable and having her in the kitchen was like having one of the family. We were a party of 9 celebrating my mom and dad’s 50th wedding anniversary. Emily helped in selecting a great menu for our lack of frills family and prepared everything with excellence. The talking got very minimal once the meal was served. She helped take pictures and clean up. We even enjoyed some the potatoes as sides with breakfast. All in all would highly recommend Emily and the Food Fire & Knives experience.

Menu: Ode To My Love

Chef Robert prepared dinner for our son’s wedding at our home. It could not have been better from the food to the service to the cleanup. We would definitely use him again for another event and highly recommend that others do the same. He brought his friend Adam to help as bartender and served and Adam was wonderful and engaging. And made fantastic cocktails and never let my champagne flute get empty!!
