We make intimate dinner parties in your home for groups from two to 25 people. We make fabulous cocktail parties with appetizers in your home for groups up to 50 people. Why we created Have Taste - Will Travel Personal Party Chef Service? We were in the catering business for 15 years and have done a lot of different kinds of events over the years - from huge complex banquet jobs with hundreds of guests, to small simple dinner parties for just a few folks. While large events are profitable, interesting and challenging to produce, we've always preferred doing the smaller jobs. We get to be engaged with you, the host or hostess, in the preparation of your home for the party and we have the opportunity to personally impact each guest's party experience. We find that creating small to medium-sized parties in our client's home is so much better than catering the party to a client's home.

And, Have Taste - Will Travel is a good value. Because you don't have to pay for the overhead of an industrial kitchen, and because you only pay us for the hours we actually work on your party and the cost of party ingredients and supplies, our Personal Party Chef Service is generally less ...
