I hired Chef Ellen for a dinner party that I was hosting for 20 people, and she absolutely EXCEEDED my expectations. From our first call about planning the event, to the event itself, Chef Ellen was fantastic. She has such an impressive rolodex of appetizers and meals she can prepare, and she worked with me to customize a perfect menu for the evening. We chose 5 hors d'oeuvres, and she surprised me on the night with two additional ones on top of the five we'd chosen! Every single appetizer was delicious. From there, we did a sit down dinner that included a soup (amazing butternut squash), salad (the best salad my guests have ever had - who knew a salad could be that life changing!), and then guests had a choice of filet mignon or arctic char for their main course. Both main courses were so thoughtfully prepared, perfectly cooked, and the presentation for everything was stunning. On top of that, there was a mini pizza delivery crisis for my 5 and 7 year old nephews who were over, and Chef Ellen graciously offered to make pasta for them -- all while preparing a 20-person dinner. What more could you ask for?! After dinner, she also surprised me with mini passed desserts :) Chef Ellen also had brought a server with her, who was professional, charismatic and on top of everything to ensure the night went smoothly. To sum it up, Chef Ellen helped make the night so special, and I was thrilled with all of her hard work. If you're looking for delicious food, beautiful presentation, great service, and a hell of a personality, don't hesitate to book Chef Ellen. I am so glad I found her and am already looking forward to having her back for another event!

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! When we first inquired to Chef’s Culinary Journey, we knew they would be the one. They are not your conventional caterer, this is a company that will completely tailor themselves to your needs, do whatever it is that you hope to have for your special day. I cannot stress enough how perfect they are, no other caterer can ever or will ever compare to their level. We were able to call and schedule as many appointments as we needed to make sure our wedding would go as planned. Paul, Jessica, Tinu and Dawn and all the staff know how to conduct a wedding in order for it to be perfect. The food presentation provoked a dazzling wow and tasted amazing, staff were punctual and flawless. Trust us, PERFECTION exists at Chef’s Culinary Journey!

We work in a variety of cuisines, from New American to Cajun to Southeast Asian; accommodate all diets, including gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian; and are proud to partner with local farms and purveyors throughout the Hudson Valley and New York City.

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Jillicious! My husband and I are major foodies so we knew we didn’t want to have standard wedding food at our reception. We started searching for wedding caterers that would work with us to customize the perfect menu for our wedding day. Jillicious did not disappoint! We worked with Chef Jill to put together the most delicious menu of both apps and main courses. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how good the food was. It honestly rivaled many of our favorite restaurants in NYC. In addition to the food, Chef Jill and her staff were amazing. They were so responsive throughout the whole wedding process and offered so many great recommendations. On the wedding day, the staff were very helpful with getting the rentals in order, setting up the tables, etc. We also had some guests thank us for how allergy conscious the wedding and staff were. We're so grateful to Jillicious for bringing our vision to life and couldn’t recommend them more! They truly contributed to an absolutely perfect wedding day!

We wanted our guests to have various choices, and that's exactly what we did with a flatbread pizza station, pasta station, taste of Philly station, and lettuce wrap stations. In addition to our dinner, the dessert parade that followed was even better! Our maitre'd Tori was also excellent and all of her staff made sure we had everything we needed!
