TL;dr: fries and pork belly bahn mi are incredibly delicious. First, I had their fries because someone else at the brewery where they were parked brought in a big serving to share. It was so good, I went out to order something. At first glance, I though the Bahn Mi looked slightly small, but then I realized it was only in comparison to the ginormous amount of fries that came with it! I feel pretty confident that this is one of the best pork-belly-whatevers that I've put in my mouth. Also, Patrick and Sean are super cool dudes! read more

I needed some fresh air, some people in my office wear such heavy perfume!!! Ugh! Anyways, it's lunchtime, I don't know what I want to eat, so I just walk down to Westlake Park(plenty of fresh air) and see what's up with the food truck scene. I stopped and checked out their menu and it looked good, so I decided to try their "Portobello Mushroom and Goat Cheese Burger"....it was very good! Wow! Simple yet oh so delicious! I like that the portobello mushroom is the size of the bun so it's mushroom in every bite. Goat cheese pairs well with it and made it real tasty. Not dry, nicely and lightly seasoned just right. Comes with fries or a salad, so fries was the obvious choice. Level up your fries.....GET THE KOREAN STYLE KETCHUP for dipping, it was real good! Smoky, spicy, and it was the business! Fries are not overly salted so I appreciate that. Staff working there was real nice, worked hard to fix up your order, only took them like 5 mins or so, line wasn't too long so that may have been why. Prices are about what food trucks are around town. Glad I stopped by as this food truck just made it on my go-to list. read more

Wich Wagon - "Portobello Mushroom & Goat Cheese" Burger w/ fries and wonderful Korean style keychup. - Caterers Near Me

OMG Pork Belly Banh Mi, where have you been all my life? I stumbled upon this food truck at Obec Brewing during the recent WA Brewery Open House Saturday, and (as usual) found my tummy rumbling. I often shy away from pork belly, as it seems many places don't cook it to my liking. It's either too chewy, or not well seasoned. But I asked the dude at the Wich Wagon counter which sandwich I should choose, and he suggested the PB Banh Mi and I couldn't say no. People, this sandwich was phenomenal! The pork was so tender it practically melted in my mouth. Served with all the goodness of fresh/pickled vegetables on a perfect French bun, it was all things banh mi should be. It was amazing alongside my Obec flight, and a great mid-point to my afternoon of touring the local breweries. I will definitely be seeking out this food truck again! read more

Without a doubt, one of the highlights of our bachelor party trip to Seattle was having Chef Patrick Frank of Cochon Catering prepare a personalized five-course dinner for us at our Airbnb rental house in Ballard. Our friend Kevin, who organized the trip, learned about Chef Patrick through one of his connections in Seattle. He arranged to have Chef Patrick cook us a meal at home on the final night of our multi-day visit. It was a fantastic end to our stay. Chef Patrick is a personal chef who has been cooking for almost his entire life. He worked at various restaurants throughout his career before starting his own business, Cochon Catering. Cochon is French for pig. He prepares private, personalized meals for parties big and small. He'll do one-time gigs like the dinner he prepared for us. He'll also go to your house and prepare a week's worth of meals for you if you want. I think that's pretty awesome. Chef Patrick goes out and buys all the groceries, brings all the necessary plating, and brings everything to your house to cook, serve, and clean. You don't have to do anything except sit back and enjoy the meal. Your kitchen becomes his kitchen. We booked Chef Patrick on a Saturday night at 6pm. He arrived on-time with his Sous Chef Rachael. They brought in a few bags and boxes worth of ingredients, kitchenware, and plating to feed our group of 10. They scoped out our kitchen and went to work immediately. This was my first-ever personal (paid) chef experience, so I was excited to see these guys in action. The chefs let me watch them up-close and Chef Patrick even offered to teach us how to cook while he was prepping and cooking. I think it's fascinating how these guys can prepare such high quality gourmet meals from a regular residential kitchen. I thought they'd have to be in a restaurant quality kitchen to pull off some of these dishes. Chef Patrick worked with Kevin on the menu. Chef Patrick's menus are inspired by his guests' tastes and ideas. Here's what we had: First Course: * Creamy grits with braised beef short ribs and fire-roasted tomato gravy (non-dairy) Second Course: * Fried chicken with crispy slaw Third Course: * Mint julep fruit salad Fourth Course: * Blackened snapper with andoullie and potato hash with fried green tomato garnish Fifth Course: * Roasted apple and peach with granola crumble and whipped cream The meal was absolutely delicious and the experience was simply outstanding. Everything was made from scratch. I watched as Sous Chef Rachael cut all the fruit and vegetables. I watched Chef Patrick batter and fry the chicken. Yes, he fried 10 large pieces of chicken in our little kitchen (and that was just part of one course). I watched him season the fresh red snapper he had just purchased from Pike Place Market (now that's local). It was fun watching Patrick and Rachael plate each course. I told Rachael food is art and she agreed. I commented to everyone before the first course was served that watching and interacting with the chefs was like sitting at the chef's counter at a fancy restaurant. Of course, it was way better than that. Our group as a whole had plenty of great conversation with Chef Patrick throughout the evening. As Patrick and Rachael served each course, Patrick described each dish in detail, from the sourcing of ingredients to the preparation process. We had *a lot* of food. The grits were hot, soft, and creamy and the beef short ribs were tender and juicy. I particularly liked the fried chicken because it was crispy, but not too greasy. It was also very meaty. The shredded slaw was fresh and crunchy. The mint julep fruit salad was terrific. Light, healthy, and refreshing. Me and another person in the party didn't drink, so Chef Patrick made two special non-alcoholic versions of the fruit salad for us. The blackened snapper was excellent. It was deboned and, like the chicken, meaty. I thought the bits of andouille sausage and slice of fried green tomato were a nice touch. The dessert was simple yet amazing. The apple and peach were sweet, ripe, and nicely spiced. One of the guys in our group is lactose intolerant, so Chef Patrick made sure to serve his whipped cream on the side. Dishes were taken away and cleaned after each course. By the time dessert was over, just about all the dishes had been cleaned and the kitchen was spotless. Both the food and service were top-notch. These guys are efficient and on top of their game. Chef Patrick's experience really shone through. I believe the total bill for our party came out to roughly $600-700 including groceries, labor, tax, gratuity, etc. Drinks were not included. For a private seated dinner for 10 with fantastic personalized food and service, I thought that was very reasonable. If you are looking for a good personal chef in the Seattle area, I cannot recommend Chef Patrick and Cochon Catering enough. read more

Everything is beyond delicious. Get double of the brussel sprouts. Best ones I've had in Seattle -- hands down. And a double bacon burger with pork. And it was very reasonably priced for the quality of items. Go go go! Eat eat eat! read more

These guys are AMAZING! We had the truck come to our home for a birthday party and it was a hit! The menu they created had a little something for everyone and our guests raved about how great the food was. The double bacon cheeseburger and Cuban were the clear favorites. Pricing was very reasonable and I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thanks guys, it was a pleasure working with you! read more

I want to say thank you to Sean and his team. Best food in Vigor shipyard. Been a fan since 2018 and their food is bomb.com. Friendly, great food, friendly and you can tell they love their job. Ask for the Hartley Fries, you will not be disappointed. read more

Thirsty and hungry in Seattle. We walked into Obec Brewing for a pint or two, then ordered sandwiches from 'Wich Wagon. Wow! We inhaled the brisket and Cubano sandwiches--no small feat given the size of these behemoths! Great fries were the perfect companion, along with Obec's beers. read more

The meatball 'wich is quite possibly one of the best things I've ever eaten. I'm always skeptical of fries when I haven't tried them someplace and they were hot, crispy and flavorful. Seriously - this is the stuff pregnant ladies dream of - I'll likely be back every week :) read more

WOW! Patrick is awesome! Patrick comes to your house, makes your kitchen his kitchen and creates AMAZING food! The whole process with Patrick is so easy! You tell him if there are any dietary conditions or things you don't like. He then creates a menu based upon the style of party you're having. In our case we had a dinner party for our close friends. Everyone can't stop talking about how great everything was! The food, the quality service and the professionalism. Looking forward to the next time! read more

Wich Wagon - Patrick being awesome - Caterers Near Me

Had the diablo chicken and fries at Obec and a lovely conversation with the chef about spicy food. They were more than willing to make a real spicy sandwich and had a wonderful homemade (super spicy) hot sauce to boot. The food was wonderful and the service impeccable and friendly. read more

Patrick is a genius. He creates meals that are fascinating (he's very creative) and makes them just how you want them. For example, for my bithday two years ago, I asked for homemade pasta. So, he used a duck egg yolk to make gnocchi then tossed these tasty morsels in a fresh cream sauce! It was delicious. Soon after I realized that I couldn't eat gluten so, for my next birthday, he made risotto and the yummiest dang scallops you have ever tasted in your life - tender and so flavorful. There is no better deal out there to tickle your tastebuds and leave you happy and wanting more than Cochon Catering. Plus, Patrick is smart and funny and you'll like getting to know him. read more

Good food, small portions and over priced for a food truck. Staff is great though!!!!

I was lucky enough to be able to get one of their burgers at the Seattle Street Food Festival, and it was seriously one of the best burgers I have ever had. I got the Happy Fat Kid, it was tons of food and super messy (I was warned by the guys working the food truck so I knew what I was getting into) but it was so amazing! Great service and really good food! read more

Patrick is completely amazing! We had him over last night for a dinner party with 12 guests. We requested a sit down 5 course meal. He really outdid himself! Everyone can't stop talking about how amazing the food and service was. They plated everything meticulously and professionally. The food was higher quality than the top restaurants in Seattle by far! They completely took the ease off us so we could tend to our guests throughout the whole night which was great. We can't wait to have him and Addie again. Everyone at the party is asking when the next one is! Thanks Patrick! read more

Patrick has been cooking meals for my wife and me for a year now. During that time, he has made us weekly meals, helped us host dinner parties at our house (10-20 people), and even catered our wedding (100 people). During our wedding, the power went out for an hour and he and his amazing crew continued to cook in the dark without any interruption to the scheduled reception service! Patrick will provide you a menu that you can customize to your personal preferences and/or dietary restrictions. After settling on the menu, he does the grocery shopping, cooks it at your home or venue, and cleans up after he's all done. If you're doing a larger event, he can even bring manpower (servers, bartenders, cooks), linens, dishes, and flatware. To keep a long story short, Patrick's food is spectacular (those duck and pork meatballs have started fights at our dinners and the wedding), his attitude is awesome, and anyone that is considering catering an event, hosting a dinner, or getting weekly meals should seriously contact this man. read more

Cochon Catering was one of the best pieces to our wedding day! I wasn't sure they would do a heavy appetizer wedding reception for 200 people (the reviews I read were for smaller group numbers). I am so glad they had our date open and were willing to be our caterer. First of all, I have never met a more accommodating, patient, and thoughtful wedding vendor EVER. From the first conversation with Patrick, to my moments of panic, through the morning after when he graciously also catered a breakfast for out of town guests, we had THE BEST experience. We so appreciated his attention to detail in the menu items. The presentation was lovely. There was never a moment when a particular appetizer was "out." There were vegetarians, vegans, and meat eaters in the crowd and everyone was taken care of. The "morning after" breakfast (for about 40 people) was spectacular. Our guests watched as the Cochon crew freshly scrambled the eggs, fried the hash-browns, and baked the bacon right in front of them. My family was thrilled and I was relaxed knowing I had put my weekend in the hands of a professional. Plus, the pricing was spot on. If you are a budget conscious bride looking for good food at a good price Cochon Catering is a must. Patrick worked with me to get exactly what I wanted, while completely honoring my planned budget. No surprises, just straight forward good food and good service. I am not exaggerating when I say guests recounting our wedding ALWAYS mention how amazing the food was both at the reception and the breakfast. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and I highly, HIGHLY recommend Cochon Catering and Patrick for any of your catering needs. read more

Patrick brought in lunch to our office and we were able to order and pay ahead of time, then it just took about 5 minutes to go pick up my freshly made lunch. The sandwich I had far surpassed any restaurant in town and it was so convenient to just walk around the corner and have Patrick there. My productivity stayed strong and I saved so much time by having access in the office. Did I mention that the sandwich was to die for??? I wish Patrick was here daily! read more

Confused by all the 5 star reviews. Ordered the "Cuban" sandwich and received a bunch of flavorless pork with unmelted pre sliced cheese on a hot dog bun. Maybe I just got the wrong thing, but asked the woman working there what her favorite sandwich was and that was the recommendation. In any event, it should be illegal to call that a Cuban sandwich. May as well have ordered an $11 hot dog. read more

Patrick came to our office, and gave us an on-premise food option (not something we normally have). The roast beef panini was insane. I was talking with Patrick as he was making my sandwich. The carmelized onions were cooked over the course of several hours with thyme (i think, maybe it was another herb), and towards the end he added some balsamic vinger. They were delicious, and kind of just wanted to a big bowl of those. The roast beef had about an 1/8th of an inch of browned edge, and the rest was perfectly pink. Everything was very tender. The horseradish potato salad had nice big chunks of red potatoes. The dressing had a nice little kick from the horseradish, and some good flavor from the chives. And to top it all off, Chocolate Chip Cookies that were amazing. I tried a bite of a coworkers mocha-dipped cookie. Both are definitely worth the calories. Thank you Patrick! And we're excited for you to come next week. read more

My wife and I had a big wedding last August, but we recently made it legal (yeah, Washington!) and threw a party to celebrate in our home. I was so excited for Cochon to cater it! Patrick offered such an array of yummy-sounding choices, it was difficult to pick which appetizers we wanted, but we finally settled on a few that included a roasted beet and quinoa salad served on a Chinese spoon, goat cheese and roasted mushroom phyllo cups, and a smoked salmon on rye with creme freshe and chives. My standout fave was a perfectly seasoned, pleasantly tangy artichoke and spinach salad served on crostini - YUM! Patrick was informative, punctual, personable, and kept the plates full of amazing food throughout our event. We couldn't be happier. read more

This team rocks!!!!! They come to Vigor shipyard on Habor Island, and let me tell you, service and food are top notch. Once we are done getting work in Seattle, I will have to travel just to see them. the Cuban, the double bacon burger and their​ fries (ask for gravy) rock. i look forward​ to lunch just to see them, banter with each other and have great food. thank you for the t-shirt today. read more

Worst Cuban I've ever had. Slimey soggy bread and bad presentation. I even tried it twice to make sure it wasn't a fluke because I normally love cuban sandwiches. Won't be going back. read more

I used Cochon's services recently to cater a friend's baby shower! I wanted to do a Halloween/Pumpkin theme since Halloween is the mom's favorite holiday but I wasn't sure how to pull off the food. Once I told Patrick my idea for the theme, his eyes lit up with excitement and you could tell the creativity was flowing. He put together such a fun menu: Black Bean & Roasted Pumpkin salad served in tortilla chips, Pumpkin soup in mini pumpkins, crispy pumpkin cakes w/ smoked salmon and creme fraiche, Roasted Red pepper hummus w/ toasted pita & a Quinoa salad w/ roasted beets, sweet potatoes, dried cranberries, almonds and candied pears. It was delish! You can tell that Patrick puts a lot of time and love into his cooking. He came over and did all of the set-up for me. He even brought his own plates so that I didn't have to worry about a thing! His enthusiasm is contagious--I was so excited to showcase the food at the shower and it was a huge success. Definitely give him two thumbs up! read more

This Chef is fantastic. My Association hired Cochon Catering for our yearly Christmas party. We have some members with food allergies or are on special diets and he was able to accommodate all of my concerns. The food and portion sizes were great. The price was very reasonable. In past years, the other catering services we've had, have not been very good. With Cochon Catering, everyone was extremely happy and made me look like a hero. Thanks for a fantastic experience. read more

I had a double cheeseburger and the fries had just the right seasoning. I had also tried the meatball wich it was very good. read more

Patrick is amazing. I've hired him for two different jobs. The first was for a New Years Eve party with 5 couples. He came in advance of the party and prepped everything so that all we had to do was heat a few things up and plate it. Everything he made was absolutely delicious. We all split the cost and it ended up being more affordable than a fancy meal out on the town. The second time Patrick helped me out was when my gluten-free-eating mother-in-law was staying with us for 3 weeks. I emailed Patrick, he came up with a great menu of 8 gluten-free entrees that I could freeze and reheat as needed. My in-laws are from South America, and he even did some research to see what food is like in their home country and recommended dishes that he thought they would like. He did all of the grocery shopping, prepped everything at my house, cleaned the kitchen and had everything he cooked stored away in pyrex dishes and tupperware. He left me very helpful, detailed notes about how to reheat and serve each dish. My husband, my in-laws, even my children loved his food. He was a life-saver!! Best of all, Patrick is a really nice guy. He listened to my needs and was flexible and creative about meeting them. I also appreciate that he is cost-conscious about his menu choices, making scrumptious and healthy meals without super expensive ingredients. I have recommended Patrick to friends who have also loved him. I will definitely hire him again! read more

One of my new favorite food trucks. I am low-carb so I had a bacon double cheeseburger lettuce wrap. The sauces they have went so well with it. I must say the deep-fried brussel sprouts with pork belly were incredible. Easily in the top 5 brussel sprout dishes I've ever had. This is a great truck, with a really nice selection of sandwiches. The price is reasonable and they are very good about accommodating different diets. Love it. read more

Did I just die and become a celebrity? Nope, just another day at the office! Chef Patrick comes and makes amazing lunch for us every week which automatically becomes my most favorite day of the week. Today I had the pulled pork sandwich and a side salad with nectarine, avocado and pistachios. Let's just say my whole day got brighter after eating my meal. Chef Patrick is a wonderful, creative, innovative chef. Not to mention, a pleasure to work with. I would definitely recommend using his services for your next party, office gathering, or he even has personal chef services if you want to treat yourself! read more

Patrick is amazing! He catered our wedding on Bainbridge Island and despite the hold up due to the ferry he swooped in and made the most amazing meal ever. They even cleaned up and offered to serve the cake. Don't even hesitate hiring him. This was the top notch food and service you could ask for. He is a master in his field. read more

Wich Wagon - Grilled deliciousness! - Caterers Near Me

Chef Patrick is amazing! He came to my house and cooked and amazing Valentine's meal for me and my boyfriend. By far the BEST crabcakes I've ever had!! The scallops were amazing and everything tasted so fresh and flavorful. Having someone cook and clean for me in my house while I sat back and enjoyed was the best experience! read more

Too expensive. Tastes good and quality ingredients, but I never want to spend $11 on a sandwich this small again. The side salad was just a handful of lettuce with dressing. Waited longer than average in Westlake and the sandwich was still cold. read more

Cochon catering was suggested to me by a food writer when I asked her opinion on who should cater our party. The last cater I used was Chef Jason Wilson who now owns Crush (love) and Cochon Catering was another amazing experience. Wish I could afford to do this more often! I am allergic to gluten and the chef, Patrick Frank, is very experienced with food allergies and created a fantastic menu. Also, he is personable and fun to have in the house. So was his trusted assistant. They were professional, exceptional, punctual, clean and creative. The guests could not stop talking about the food! everything was divine. Chef Frank even got my Pyrex out and froze his yummy sauce left overs for me, which I served again and got to re-live the fantastic-ness. Ok, 'nuff said. Rockstar choice. Six stars, really. Exceeded my expectations. read more

Such tasty food and excellent service. I had the pork sandwich on a homemade brioche bun with fries. The pork was tender and flavorful with just enough onions and Swiss cheese. My husband had the meatball sandwich and said it was just as delicious. And the long fries with crispy edges - yum! Patrick and Shawn were great. They are clearly passionate about their food and really want to give you a good meal. Go find the Wich Wagon at it's next stop. read more

We've used Chef Patrick of Cochon Catering twice for small dinner parties at our house. He is amazing and makes everything so easy. He sets up the menu, does the shopping, the cooking and the clean up. The food and service is excellent and he leaves the kitchen spotless! Cochon is also an excellent value, we did a 5 course meal for six people for probably the same or less than it would have cost for us to eat at an upscale restaurant. read more

Patrick is extremely easy to work with--no B.S.! And he's super personable! But best of all, he's a wonderful chef. We've hired him for two family birthday dinners, both delicious and so relaxed and enjoyable. I can't wait to hire him again. read more

Patrick is wonderful. I've hired him for four different jobs thus far. He is my "go-to" guy when I need a caterer. The best part, aside from his delicious and incredibly creative cooking, is his flexibility. I have hired him to create a four course dinner for a small intimate dinner party. I have also hired him for a couple of receptions I have hosted through by business where he prepared appetizers for groups of up to 80 people. As a small business owner myself, I appreciate the dedication and passion that Patrick brings to his work. It's encouraging to find someone who is so intent on creating a perfect experience for his clients. read more

Chef Patrick is FABULOUS! He made my husband's "big birthday" party an enormous success. Our guests literally stopped mid meal to applaud him and are still raving about his culinary talents. And, I'm a star simply because I "found" him! I'm a type-A, OCD personality with really high expectations, but he WOW'd me...and everyone else there!! Everything was absolutely phenomenal...the taste, presentation, service and oh my gosh, the clean up too! When can you have eight people over for an amazing gourmet dinner and have a spotless kitchen before you're done eating a delightful dessert?! I will definitely find another occasion to experience his food and service! read more

I had never had a party catered before, so didn't know what I was getting into. From my first query, Patrick was easy to work with and answered e-mails promptly. His proposed menu (Italian) was creative and delicious. I saw my guests look up from each of his amazing courses with "Whoa!!" on their faces. Plus, he is so personable and competent and reassuring, which is exactly what you need when throwing a party! Besides whisking everything away at the end of the evening (thank God there were some leftovers in the frig - YUM!), his price was totally reasonable and within his first estimate. This way of entertaining was a whole new experience, and I wouldn't go to anyone else if another opportunity came up. Yay Patrick!! read more

We hired Patrick for a birthday party for a dear friend. He was such a breeze to work with and gave us an amazing evening. We asked for a series of appetizers that focused on local, seasonal, and special ingredients. He came up with a fantastic list: risotto with truffle oil, crispy crab cakes, fresh pumpkin gnocchi, a porchetta with herbs, and delicious ahi among others. The presentation was beautiful. Patrick also arranged for a great bartender so we didn't have to lift a finger. We will definitely hire him again--he is our new house chef! read more
