Cathy made delicious vegan meals for our retreat on two occasions, and I’ve enjoyed every one of her meals. Her cooking has amazing variety, great flavor, and is full of healthy whole-food ingredients. I wish I could eat like this everyday!

It is very impressive to deliver highest quality and culinary excellence the first time. It is truly fantastic to top that standards thereafter! Chef Cathy is not only a skilled professional. She is an inspirational artist and a gracious hostess. Thank you for an exciting and beautiful gastronomic journey as well as a delightful time! Hope to enjoy your domain soon again Cathy!

Delicious and dynamic vegan dishes that managed to also correct chronic digestive issues I’d been suffering, in just the few days I was fortunate enough to dine on exclusively. Thanks Cathy you’re meals are amazing, healthy and so good for me!

Chef Cathy was amazing! She helped plan a three course meal for 15 people to celebrate our marriage. She navigated several dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free, mushroom and nut allergy) so that everyone could enjoy everything that was prepared. The food was locally sourced, which is very important to us, and delicious. Chef Cathy prepared the meal at an airbnb, where she took the effort of scouting out the kitchen and communicating with the airbnb host. She had thoughtful touches that made the evening special, such as fresh flowers, essential oil, and herbed salt from her garden. I would highly recommend Chef Cathy to prepare a thoughtful, healthy, delicious meal at your next gathering!

Cathy was amazing! From the moment she walked in my home she felt so welcoming and kind. She cooked four courses for a bridal shower at my house and each one was incredible! We went over the menu about a month before and it was entirely catered to the bride to be. It honestly couldn’t have been better. I look forward to hiring Cathy again!
