The Food Dudes (and Dudettes) catered a small, 10-person dinner party for us this past Saturday night. I am working hard to find enough superlatives to describe their services. From initial contact to end of evening clean-up, they were perfect. Renee expertly guided us through the planning phase, expertly handling food selection, staffing and rentals and thinking of every last detail to ensure everything ran smoothly. Eric the chef was amazing. He showed up when he was supposed to, in fact he was a little early, and immediately took charge of the kitchen. The aromas were immediate and mouth-watering. Sarah, Renata and Amanda followed shortly thereafter and set up the space with choreographed proficiency. The room, which was already lovely, looked better than we had hoped to expect. The service was friendly and professional without being intrusive. Drinks were poured, canapes were passed and a contented buzz filled the room as our guests realized that they were being spoiled rotten. And the food, oh the food! Delicious, original, enchanting, beautiful presentation, we couldn't have asked for more. There was not a morsel left on anyone's plate, even the more frugal diners had to restrain themselves from licking their plates. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
