Could not have nicer things to say about working with My Chef and Jamie Walsh for our wedding day…read morecatering. We met Jamie at our venue's vendor expo and were immediately impressed by their services, pricing, and vast food offerings. It was a no brainer to book with their group! We had our tasting a couple months before our wedding day; which is complimentary to the couple and a $50 charge for any additional guest to join. They have you select 8-10 appetizers, 2 salads, and 4 entrees to taste at their Naperville location. They also have displays of china, silverware, glasses and more to help couples select what aligns aesthetically for their special day. Jamie worked with us to make small modifications to their standard offerings to make the food exactly what we wanted! Our wedding day came and we were floored by the quality/presentation of food, level of detail in place settings, and service from all staff members. We had multiple guests say that this was some of the best wedding food they've had, steaks were not over cooked, and food tasted fresh. Jamie also let us add desserts a week out to reallocate money from a couple of guests who last minute were unable to attend. Their team was even nice enough to service items not purchased through their group: disposables for the late night snack, display and refilling of cupcakes, etc. Overall, their group went above and beyond for us under Jamie's leadership. Our tables looked great, our food was wonderful, and their team was fabulous. We truly appreciate all they've done for us and could not recommend them more!

I'd heard from a few members of my mother's club about Taste of Home. I haven't lived in the area for quite some time, so all I could do was trust their experience; and I was so glad I did. I explained the need to put our socially-distancing guests at ease with a range of outdoor, afternoon finger food that was individually-wrapped. Donna recommended an array of appetizer sandwiches and cookies that turned out to be real crowd pleasers! Eliminating the use for any utensils was certainly the way to go, and as if to underline that point, trays of non-wrapped cookies and cakes that people brought were hardly touched. My family is so pleased with the outcome, my area siblings are all looking into using Taste of Home for family dinners. We believe in keeping our purchasing as local as possible during this economic uncertainty, and Taste of Home has provided another great Hinsdale option for when cooking is better off done by someone else. Their menu offers great variety for any sort of audience or occasion, so before you order a pizza for the umpteenth time, give Donna and her team a go! Thanks ever, Donna! On a day when I had zero bandwidth for orchestrating a light meal for 40 people, you came through brilliantly! (Insert hearts and stars here!)

They also had a few Christmas tea pots for sale. One was so cute I could not resist and bought my daughter an extra Christmas gift. The owner/chef came out to talk to us for just a few minutes. She explained that this was their 24th year! Amazing. She also stated that she travels and often the recipes she makes for the tea house are inspired by these trips. I believe the menu is changed every month. Our server, Gilbert was great. Very helpful and also described each delicious food item on our plate. Be sure to get reservations if you plan to visit.

I am forever THANKFUL. Their experience, organization, and just willingness to commit to making this day so special. From the start, we loved their food and knew immediately they were it. We even did an additional tasting to look at other options on their menu. Wedding day ... everything that could have happened to us ... happened (never returning to our venue ever). Luckily none of the guests found out because they were all distracted about the food. During contrail hour, the staff was nonstop bringing appetizers because people were taking thirds, fourths, etc. & I'm still hearing about it! Then dinner was exquisite. The portion of the food is very notable... GENEROUS and FILLING. Even my pickiest family members were asking for more. We had a lot of DIYs and they accommodated all of them. Even the ones I brought last minute. And the staff -- every single person -- was so kind, friendly, and just lovely to be around. The bartenders were absolute champs. They even went above and beyond to make us happy while our venue was being EXTRAORDINARILY difficult. Stephanie even came to help us de stress us & the bartenders were just phenomenal - trust me, our 170 guests do not mess around with an open bar. In conclusion, our venue.. never again. Marie's catering would choose all over again! Thank you again!! I don't have photos of our food at the moment, but wanted to share photos because it ended up being such a beautiful day

The meatballs were delicious, the sauce actually was very good and I don't even like mushrooms at all. The second item I got was the meat filled dumplings, and those were really good. They were actually a lot better than I thought they would be. The third item I tried was the smoked Polish sausage. I will be honest, this was not my favorite. It was not bad, but the flavor on it I did not like as much as other Polish places I've tried. I definitely want to go back and try their cabbage and noodles and pigs in a blanket. They also have desserts that I will have to try as well. They do sell sandwiches, Chicago style hotdogs, and have a small grocery store inside.

However, this place is kind of tucked away so it wasn't busy at all in the afternoon. The outside of the building just says Deli. If you like Polish food, you'll love it here. I read some people exaggerating about the wait times. It does not take long for them to help you. Like Jewel or Mariano's, they're not going to slice your meat in 10 seconds if that's what you're hoping for. Btw the staff was nice. I think the Karen's that complain about them being rude are not very cultured and only know American culture. I ordered the signature pastrami sandwich for $10.99 and it was a very generous portion size. She put a ton of meat in it. The pastrami wasn't tough, it was fresh and soft. Honestly, I had Katz's in NY and this was a really great pastrami sandwich. I also got a large cannoli and meat pierogis. The cannoli was delicious. The pierogis were good but I like to have softer skin. The meat filling was fine but the outside was a bit too tough. I've been to a number of Polish restaurants and they usually make the skins very soft to cut. I would rate these pierogis like a 4. Overall, it's about a 4.5. Prices were very cheap. I got everything for $20. I will definitely return to try more items.

You want to give a social media play-by-play of every 10 minutes of your life while doing your juice cleanse? ANNOYING. And It's not like you're curing cancer... yet somehow, acting like your pilgrimage through 3-days without solid food is on par with some of history's greatest tales of suffering usually becomes a symptom. Ugh. Plus, why would I make a resolution like that when I know that such a thing as Foodielicious' salted caramel drizzling sauce exists? The thought of denying myself the cute-as-hell mini mason jar of said Foodielicious salted caramel drizzling sauce seems downright torturous and un-American, and I simply can't and won't get drawn into the the sort of culture that frowns upon it. ... because b*tches gots to eat. amiright? So, this past week was my first time trying (devouring an entire jar of) this delicious salted caramel sauce, but it's certainly not my first rodeo with Foodielicious. I've run into this food service/catering group at a number of summer outdoor festivals and while the line to grab goods from Foodielicious is usually a long one, it's always well worth the wait. From the cupcakes to the frosting shots, to the granola, sandwiches and more, it's no wonder people seek out events these folks are catering... and by 'people' I might just mean me... although I don't feel that I'm alone in this Foodielicious following. You see, Foodielicious has done a number of Charity events that I've attended and while I don't want to sound like a total jerk, I have to be honest and say that I'm a whole lot more likely to show up and support an event that's working to help aid hurricane relief when there's red velvet cupcakes involved. That's just a fact. It's like, human nature or some junk. Because of Foodielicious' delicious presence at many of these charity and good-cause-benefiting events, I've basically become a part time philanthropist //slash// part time cookie wolf-er down-er. Basically, they've made me a better (albeit maybe slightly plumper) person through their do-gooding. So anyway, I'm still not making any official resolutions this year, but I am taking a personal vow to scarf more salted caramel than human should and maybe also show up and support some more good-willed events, granted Foodielicious is there as well. Sort of like a food truck, I recommend liking them on FB for a more up-to-date display of when and where they'll be. https://www.facebook.com/foodieliciouscatering

Many people say that the bacon craze is a fad, that it's hyped up and overdone. These people have…read moreobviously never had a Foodielicious Maple Bacon cupcake in, on or around their mouths. And I feel incredibly sorry for them, because to have never put one of Angela's treats in your face hole is almost as if you haven't truly lived. They're good at all hours of the day and I like to tell myself it's OK to consider them breakfast because there's bacon! Maple Bacon is bomb and all, but Foodielicious Catering is no one trick pony. The Red Velvet, the Pumpkin, PB&J, and Cookies n Cream are all on point, and they still don't account for all the flavor creations she executes flawlessly. I'm often able to find some sort of fault with cake - too dry, too sweet, too sticky, too dense, too much frosting, bland, stale - because it's a fine art that not everyone gets right. This has never happened with a cupcake from Foodielicious. In fact, my immediate thoughts upon taking a bite are, whether I've never tried that variety or have had it dozens of times, 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4 quickly followed by 2) Shit! I don't think I bought enough cupcakes. So, if baked goods are an art and Angela is the artist, these moist masterpieces are the goddamn Sistine Chapel of sweets. People keep asking me how far along I am in wedding planning; unfortunately, not very far at all. However, I've known from the beginning (even before he put a ring on it) that whether or not the celebration ends up being 2, 20 or 200 people, Foodielicious Catering is getting contracted for the construction of a cupcake tower. The deliciousness doesn't stop with sugar. Foodielicious is a catering business that has no problem making your wildest dreams come true. I've had the pleasure of trying many of the soups, salads, pastas, side dishes, dips and entrées that Angela lovingly makes from scratch. My fiancé is madly in love with the crepadillas, so I'm sure we'll continue working with her to get food for many other upcoming parties (engagement party, bridal shower, bachelorette night and birthdays). You need this in your life! You need this in your mouth! You and your food are in fabulous hands!
