“Let's start by saying that the food was fantastic. From the kalimotxo pulled pork to the heirloom grits to the chargrilled oysters, every aspect of the meal was delicious, distinctive, and memorable. But hiring a caterer is about a lot more than just the flavor of the food. My wife and I planned our own wedding, and we wanted a caterer who was reliable, efficient, communicative, and down to earth. Adam fit the bill in every possible way. He was responsive to our emails, communicated with clarity, provided robust and varied menu options, hosted a straightforward but cozy (and delicious) tasting for us and some friends, and took care of everything on his end once the big day rolled around, without any unexpected issues. He never tried to upsell us or push a particular package - which, if you've done any wedding planning, you know happens constantly. There was none of the phony salesmanship I came to associate with wedding planning. He's a chef and a caterer. He did exactly what we needed, and he did it extremely well. His approach suited our DIY wedding perfectly, and everyone at the wedding enjoyed the meal (and I happily feasted on leftovers for days afterward). I cannot recommend his catering services highly enough. He makes excellent food and has an earnest, direct way of dealing with his clients.”

“Since our venue did not have a preferred vendor list or a built-in catering team, we were given maximum flexibility (which is also intimidating, as the choice and freedom can be a bit overwhelming). To help narrow things down, our planner prompted us to choose a single type of cuisine that we like, and work from there. We both love New Orleans / Cajun cuisine, so enter My House. From their first proposal, we were all in. It featured childhood favorites like fried catfish, and out-of-the-ordinary passed appetizers like mini chicken & waffles. Our first calls with them were relaxed, collaborative and informative. Our first tasting, while kinda pricey (isn't everything?), went really well - and gave us a chance to provide more feedback and tweaks, which were promptly applied to later estimates and menus. As our planning evolved, it was a little tough to try to keep the budget in check, and it meant making some tough calls to cut costs (for instance - jettisoning late night bites), My House was always willing to work with both us and our planner on finding financial solutions - but there were a few moments where we felt like we didn't know what to expect, and stressed out a bit when we saw the latest numbers. I suppose this is part of the process for lots of couples. I never lost faith that they'd turn it out on the big day, and I'm happy to share that they did just that. They created an incredibly tasteful display for our buffet, which struck a balance between rustic and elegant. The staff was helpful, efficient, and professional - but I want to give special highlight to Simone. Simone was personable, diligent and intuitive. She knows exactly what she's doing, any couple would be very lucky to have her running any aspect of their event - because she does it with aplomb. The food was absolutely delicious. Big, bold flavors - zesty, crunchy, creamy, smoky, cheesy, sweet and spicy and everything in between . We loved hosting such a delectable menu that departed from the traditional wedding fare, but stayed true to the cuisine of New Orleans and the tastes of Southern comfort. So, so, so, so good!”

“I would highly recommend Nole' Events and Mirepoix Catering. Racheal Apken handled every detail beautifully from ordering the cake, cookies, and flowers. The food was delicious and plentiful from the passed Hor Devous to all 4 live food stations, and all the chefs and workers took special precautions for my son's food allergies. The venue was perfect, a beautiful place to have a cocktail party or wedding. Racheal handled all the details to make the party extra special for a beautiful couple. Being the host, all I had to do was show up, greet the guest, and have a great time.”
