Both events were well done which is not an easy task for off site catering. Definitely recommend this catering company for outside catering ... the menus range from the most basic to the most gourmet!

After trying for two months to book this company, and waiting at least a week between responses,…read morethey finally got back to me at the last minute to tell me my date had been booked a week ago. I am glad I will not have to rely on this company to cater my event.

I hired Chef Jay for my husband's 35 birthday party (18 people). This is the first time I've hired…read morea personal chef and didn't know what to expect, what to ask, what it would cost, etc. I spoke with Chef Jay on the phone first, around mid-December, and talked about what I wanted. He was very honest and straight forward, which I liked. He gave me a exact quote over the phone and didn't pressure me to use his service. (The quote was very reasonable and within my expectation.) We continued to communicate over email the next few weeks leading up to the party. Chef presented the four-course buffet menu to me and we only made one small change to the dessert item. He also suggested the wine pairings and told me what he would cover (plates, napkins, flatware) and what I needed to rent (glasses, linens). On the day of the party, he was punctual with his arrival time. He was very professional, friendly, and answered any questions we had. He was very transparent and shared cooking method, ingredients, etc. All of our guests could come up to him, ask him any questions, and he took the time to answer them all. Once the dinner started, Chef did a menu walk-through with our guests and talked about the wine pairings. Throughout the night and the dinner service, he was very autonomous and very discrete. He never interrupted the meal or stopped me from entertaining my guests. He also cleared plates as guests finished their meals. As I had to play hostess, I forgot to grab my dessert and Chef Jay made sure that I wasn't forgotten. He served me the dessert to save me a trip, which I thought was very sweet. On the topic of food, everything was fantastic. The food was cooked well, seasoned well, and portioned correctly. He made a chocolate dessert and when he talked about it, he called it a simplistic, humble dessert. He really downplayed the awesomeness of the chocolate brownie!!! If you use him, make sure you ask for this dessert! My husband is a big chocolate dessert fan. We dine out a lot and get chocolate dessert wherever we go. My husband said this was probably the best dessert he ever had. He was excited that we some leftovers brownies. The feedback I received about Chef Jay, the party, and the in-home, private chef experience were all positive. Once the party was over, my husband could not stop talking about how great the food was, how professional the Chef is, and what a great time he had. Our guests kept asking me how I found the Chef (I found him through Yelp) and they didn't know such service existed. They thought it was a really unique experience. Chef Jay left my kitchen the way he found it - clean and tidy. I would hire Chef Jay again and again. You'd do yourself a favor by hiring the Chef!

I have had Jay cook for us on several occasions and it has been nothing but top notch service and…read morethe food is always incredible. It is so nice to have guest come to our house and have someone else wait on us. All I have to do is have wine and a clean kitchen and he does the rest, he even brings his own dishes to serve the food on. He will also pair beer and wine to every dinner, he makes it so easy. When our dinner is done, my kitchen is spotless. It is so nice to have a fantastic 5 star dinner in your home while my child is sleeping, between the child care costs and dinner you actually save money be having Jay come and cook for you.

I attended my niece's baby shower over the weekend. When I walked into the venue, the first thing…read moreI noticed was the beautiful layout of food for the guests. The selection was very diverse with gyoza, cucumber salad, hush puppies, jerk chicken skewers, shrimp po boy sandwiches, caprese croissant sandwiches and some other tasty foods. The amount of food was more than ample and the flavors were outstanding. As we were leaving, I saw the cater come in and efficiently take down the beautiful presentation and package up the remaining food. Quick and efficient. The next time I need a catering company DayoSense will be at the top of my list

I hired Sushi Kaizen to cater my son's wedding. We did a rehearsal meal a month before the wedding…read moreand I was hooked! Jeremy is humble and kind. He made us feel that our event was the only one that mattered! At the wedding he made sure that our "non-sushi" lovers were fully fed and even helped the bride and groom successfully cut the cake. I was so impressed I hired him for my office Christmas party. He was a huge hit and I am now very popular at work lol. If you are looking for something different for your event I highly recommend giving Sudhi Kaizen a try. I'm looking for my next opportunity to hire him and hoping he doesn't get "too" popular so he can still fit me in. lol!

I ordered the jollof with chicken and the waakye with goat. Both were absolutely delicious. I just wish they had added the green spicy sauce that was supposed to come with the jollof. Otherwise food was great, food was ready at the time when it said it'll be ready and location was good. I can't wait to try other menu items and so glad we have west African cuisine represented in the Seattle area.

Watch out for these guys. I went to Savor Fest PNW and they couldn't process my payment for 20 mins…read morebecause the WiFi was bad. I don't hold that against them because the organizer should've had a hotspot for the event, so that's not on them. However, I ran my card a few times and the last time I did it, it worked, but the cashier added a tip of $8.42. Why would I tip that much when I was in line for so long and they weren't bringing food out to my table or anything. Of course I would tip something, but the amount should be my choice, not theirs. Add to that the amount of food you get for the price they charge is stingy. I got the Kamayan plate which is 4 lumpias, two scoops of macaroni salad, rice, a half cup of what was supposed to be stew but was more like soup and a fist sized lump of vegan pancit. $35 for no meat? So I also got the bbq plate and it was small too. In spite of the tiny portions, and the long wait I was super nice to the cashier and even offered to let her keep my phone adapter when she was having connectivity problems. The whole time I didn't complain and was very understanding, but tip stealing just put me over the edge. Little did I know that I'd be robbed two ways. That's what you get for being nice. Now I gotta go to my bank to dispute the tip and I have to check my dad's credit card because we ran it through the scanner twice and I have a bad feeling they might have somehow managed to charge us those times too. Unreal. Avoid these guys like the plague.

Corinne's two helpers topped off wine, liquor and water glasses without fail and, aided by name tags at our places, addressed attendees by name. It was very well done and a good time was had by all. Everything I ate was prepared with care, good fresh ingredients, and great flavors. I'd eat Corinne's food again anytime.
