This interactive dining option includes menu customization and professional presentation, creating memorable occasions for special celebrations or gourmet evenings with friends.
Event Catering
We cater events of all sizes with customizable plated or buffet options. Our standard service fees scale with group size, starting at $300 for small gatherings up to $400+ for larger events. Additional services like professional servers ($75 per server) and beverage packages ensure complete event coordination. This comprehensive approach handles everything from menu planning to on-site execution for weddings, corporate functions, and social celebrations.
Brunch Menu
Our brunch service features creative interpretations of traditional southern breakfast items. Starting at $75 per person, the menu includes unique waffle preparations and grits dishes that combine classic flavors with modern techniques. Available for both private cooking sessions and catering events, this option transforms standard brunch fare into elevated culinary experiences while maintaining the comforting essence of southern morning cuisine.
Seafood Specialties
We showcase premium seafood through signature dishes like shrimp pasta, salmon entrees, and crab cakes. These gourmet preparations highlight fresh ingredients using both traditional and contemporary cooking methods. Available as part of private dining experiences or catering packages, our seafood offerings represent the pinnacle of coastal cuisine with southern flavor influences that distinguish our culinary approach.
