My husband and I had our reception caterer by Chef’s Culinary Journey this past July. We had rescheduled from a different caterer, Paul and his team were a dream to work with during that stressful time, and it was a complete zephyr to schedule and added us to their already busy calendar!

  • Serves Maplewood, NJ

We are all about our handcrafted kitchen. From soups to dressings, sauces to desserts, we handcraft menus bringing together flavor and culture, in recipes, old and new. We are passionately committed to offering the freshest ingredients available and love to source local when our season allows.

We used Krave to cater our wedding at the Conservatory at the Sussex County Fairgrounds and I wouldn't change a thing! From start to finish, they were so kind, helpful, and prompt and made it the best day. Of course, the food was INCREDIBLE and there were so many options and we were able to customize everything. We had people telling us afterward that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. As a bonus, we also had our rehearsal dinner at their cafe the night before the wedding and they made it so special and all their staff were so kind. The BEST!

After my mother passed away when I was 20, I took on the responsibility of caring for my younger sisters, keeping her spirit alive through her recipes. In 2017, my culinary journey took a significant step forward when I joined Liberty House Restaurant, where I developed a passion for fine dining and large-scale catering. I honed my skills in menu creation and banquet hosting.

To start let me say I've been in the food industry for a long time a good portion of that being in the carering/wedding industry, and coming from experience i knew how stressful planning a wedding would be. My wife and I decided to go without a planner and do it ourselves. I have known Georgio for many years and when it came time to plan the wedding there was no question on who I was having cater the event. I've always known him to be very adventurous and passionate about his craft but never to the extent that he generously showed my wife and I. Georgio and his team guided my wife and I through all stages of the process with ease and made us feel as comfortable as possible during the planning. Now the event itself was truly outstanding, he and his staff were so professional, hard working and meticulous. When it comes to a wedding your guest will forever remember two things the music and the food, now my music was absolute top notch the food stole the show. A family style feast was prepared for my guest and let me tell you I'm still getting calls and messages about the food. So to sum it all up LuShe'ann catering should be at the number one spot on your list for future events.

Chef Ellen goes above and beyond. We had a backyard wedding for 117 guests with passed hors d’oeuvres, appetizer station (a surprise by chef!), sit down plated entrees, as well as finger sized desserts! We had a tasting prior to decide the final menu. The food is phenomenal- chef used both our indoor kitchen as well as our garage for food prep/cooking. Not only does she supply food and server staff, but has a plethora of vendor connections for all wedding necessities- floral decor, bar tending staff and decor, linen decor, tent/table/chair vendors, etc! Transparent pricing- never felt shortchanged. We talked on the phone often, going through various in depth details that by the pictures, you can see were worth the extra time! Will be using chef again for our baby gender reveal party!

Don’t overthink wedding food! Go with what you know! On the border did an amazing job at my wedding, from the food to the service. I did a taco bar with chips and salsa, and it was perfect for us. They arranged delivery with my coordinator, set up tables, kept food warm and cleaned up. The food tasted fresh and honestly way better than I imagined for tacos! I decided on them based on the price, as it was a lot cheaper compared to other local catering. So I was extremely impressed with everything!

Purslane 

5.0

  • Serves Maplewood, NJ

Purslane is part of The Oberon Group, a Brooklyn neighborhood-focused restaurant group with a commitment to sustainability. We started Purslane in 2012 as a way to serve our community outside of our restaurants. Sustainability wasn’t part of our origin story, but we realized we had an opportunity to make a difference in one of the most wasteful industries out there. We are seasoned experts in executing corporate events of all sizes, ranging from galas and banquets, to private dinners, to multi-day conferences for hundreds of guests, to weekly lunch drop-offs for your whole office.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Purslane, and especially with Michaela and Justin, was a highlight of our wedding planning, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had such excellent partners in producing our event. The staff, especially Michaela and Justin, are responsive, friendly, accommodating, and professional; the space is gorgeous and beautifully maintained and operated; the food and drink were bountiful and delicious, and the service rivaled any of New York's fine restaurants. Best of all, the process of collaborating to make our wedding happen was easy and fun, and Michaela and Justin made us, the nervous engaged couple with a million things to manage, very confident that our day would not just go as planned, but would be a beautiful success. And indeed it was! Of all the people we worked with. Michaela and Justin deserve special mention. They are excellent communicators, responsive to the million questions and people that wedding planning entails. They are proactive collaborators, laying out a clear process and schedule not just for the day, but for the process of working to plan it. They provided useful, detailed documentation at every step of the way, including a very helpful list of recommended vendors. Every meeting with them was fun and friendly, but also productive, punctual and a good use of time. And of course, the food and wine tastings were delicious. Michaela and Justin were so helpful in giving us a sense of how the venue would perform in a situation we wouldn't get to experience until the day itself. They guided us expertly, making shrewd suggestions we might not have considered ("Since you have an open bar, we recommend choosing a heavier vegetarian entree.") My wife and I had a unique vision for our event, and these two not only assured us that it was possible, they worked with the park to accommodate myriad details, even down to the selection of lightbulbs. It's no exaggeration to say that without their help, the event would not have had the specific atmosphere we imagined, nor would it have been the roaring success that it was. All the confidence they inspired along the way paid off on the day, when Michaela, Justin, and their staff were a machine. The service was prompt, helpful, and invisible; the food was great, not losing too much in the translation from tasting to event; the wedding ran perfectly smoothly, with Purslane on top of the schedule, keeping the momentum of the night alive as they moved tables, served each course, operated the bars, and so on with perfect cadence. We are so, so grateful to Purslane for making our wedding a true dream come to life. Our only regret is not responding sooner to their lovely post-wedding thank you note, and for taking so long to write this review! To you recently-engageds with so many decisions to make, let me help you with this one: your search is over; just hire Purslane.
