JaredPierre Private Chef and Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $8,000
  • Serves Evanston, IL for additional fees

JaredPierre is a boutique style catering service that has been in the DFW area since 2015 executing weddings of all kinds. We believe in bold flavors and food with an eclectic style, your food our way.

Chef Pierre had quite a task ahead of him with my husband and I’s wedding, and he nailed it. My husband being Nigerian and myself American, we wanted to incorporate both cultures into our meal. Chef Pierre did just that by creating a menu that collaborated soul food with Nigerian delicacy in a way that not only flowed, but was delicious. He also baked our cake which was as tasty as it was eye catching. I definitely recommend working with Chef Pierre and his staff (who were amazing!) to elevate your next event!

CaterCow 

5.0

  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Evanston, IL

We provide thoughtfully curated catering that your group or event will love. We pride ourselves on an amazing experience and our customer service. We have been serving our communities since 2012 and look forward to serving you as well! We are a great option for those events that may not need table service. Brunches, BBQ's, rehearsal dinners. We do it all and have you covered!

CaterCow was a great choice for meals you typically don't think about. No one plan ahead for lunch the morning of the big day when everyone but the bride and groom are chilling. CaterCow had a wide variety of affordable options to choose from, and we got a nice lunch of Turkish food that was informal, delicious, and just what we needed for the wedding party and family members lounging around the house. We are also planning on using CaterCow for some delicious arepas for an informal baby shower on a rooftop that allows us to bring outside food.

Welcome. Chef Jason started out in the kitchen at 15 years old as a dishwasher at Red Lobster washing dishes and baking. From there, he worked many cook’s lines until I earned my first chef position under Emeril Lagasse over ten years ago. He's went on to operating casino kitchens, private dining clubs. Since relocating from Atlanta, GA Jason has gained experience in kitchen consulting and new restaurant openings. After 25 years in the industry, He is now starting a new journey into the Private Chef sector. He refers to his style of cooking as Southern Creole cooking, where it’s much more than cooking…it’s about the overall experience.

Easy to communicate with very prompt and professional. Excellent work!
