Meet Dallas — our Assistant Warehouse Manager at Chef’s Garden who’s always ready to jump in wherever needed, from serving guests to warehouse prep and everything in between. 💪✨

Her go-to dish? Our Chicken Salad on a Croissant — “Comforting and delicious, I could eat it every day!”

What Dallas loves most about events: “The smaller, personal gatherings where we really get to connect with clients and make their vision come to life.”

She thrives on the variety in her work. “No two events or shifts are ever the same — it keeps things exciting and fun!”

When she’s not working, she’s hanging out with her four adorable pet ferrets 🐾 — proof she’s as fun off the clock as she is on!

We’re so lucky to have Dallas’s energy, flexibility, and big heart on our team. She truly makes every event better! 🙌💫

Meet Kyle Shaw—our incredible Executive Sous Chef and the calm, creative force behind some of our most memorable dishes.

His favorite on the menu? Pancetta-Wrapped Diver Scallops with Calabrian Chili Mostarda. “Bold, elegant, and a little unexpected—just like a great event.”

What Kyle loves most about weddings and events: “Knowing our food adds to people’s joy and becomes part of their memories. That’s the most rewarding part.”

He also reminds us that catering is more than just cooking. “It’s making great food work within the rhythm of an event—at scale, with precision, and under pressure.”

One of his favorite ideas from past events? Couples including their dogs in the ceremony. “It’s personal and always a crowd favorite.”

We’re lucky to have Kyle’s talent, focus, and heart in our kitchen.

🌟 What a year it’s been already! From a whirlwind Spring Wedding season to feeding the soul of the Jacksonville Jazz Festival, hosting a 3-day golf retreat in North Carolina, and celebrating milestone moments with so many of you—we are glowing as we roll into summer.

So much gratitude for the joy, the hustle, the growth, and above all, the community. Chef’s Garden has grown, yes—but what fills my heart most is watching the incredible people around me grow too. Your support, your creativity, your love for this work… it means the world.

Here’s to all of you who make the North Florida events world sparkle. Thank you for letting us be part of your celebrations. Thank you for making this ‘party’ I get to call life so unforgettable.

See you on the dance floor. 🥂✨

🌈 Love Always Wins.
And around here, that love shows up in full color.

This Pride Month, we’re celebrating the bold, the vibrant, the joyful moments that remind us why we do what we do. From rainbow-lit dance floors to unforgettable “I do’s,” every celebration tells a story—and at the heart of it all is love.

The diversity of our team is what makes the magic happen. It brings the flavor, the creativity, and yes—the kind of laughter that echoes long after the last song plays. We’re endlessly proud to stand with and support our incredible crew and community, made up of humans from all walks of life.

So here’s to the moments that sparkle, the people who shine, and the love that brings us all together. 💗

“What we play is life.” — Louis Armstrong

For the third year, we’ve proudly catered VIP and backstage at the Jacksonville Jazz Festival—a true celebration of music, history, and community. 🎶

From powerhouse performances by The Roots, Janelle Monáe, Spyro Gyra, Kool & The Gang, to the thousands who gather downtown, the festival always brings us back to jazz’s deep roots here in Jacksonville.

But the real magic happens behind the scenes—the crews and teams working tirelessly to make it all possible. ❤️

Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible dads of CG—past and present. 💙

From kitchen heroes to warehouse warriors to event-day MVPs, the dads in our world bring strength, calm, and a whole lot of heart to everything they do. Their commitment shines through in every action.

And a special shoutout to my own dad—the original CG cheerleader. While Alzheimer’s changed so much, it never touched his joy or the profound way he made people feel: seen, loved, and always laughing. He exemplified what it means to truly connect.

Here’s to the dads who show up with love, lead by example, and constantly remind us what truly matters. We're grateful for you, today and always.

Holy Cannoli! 🥂✨

Our new interactive cannoli station is officially the sweetest way to end the night. Guests choose their shell, pick their filling, and load up on toppings—it’s a DIY dessert dream come true.

Cheeky? Yes. Delicious? Absolutely. And the kind of vibrant, joy-filled finale you’d expect to find on the cobblestone streets of Florence.

Let’s just say… your sweet tooth has met its match.
