What cooking with me is like

Skills, not just recipes

Whether I’m cooking for you or with you, you walk away knowing a little more about great food.

Food brings people together

As a mom of two, I know the best memories happen around the table. That’s what every meal is really about.

Made just for you

Every menu is built around your tastes, your guests, and your diet. No cookie cutter menus here.

  We had Chef T cater our son’s baptism. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the quality and quantity of the food provided — and everyone was raving about it! There was not a single item that I wish I had not chosen, and there were so many more options that we are excited to try in the future. The ordering process was easy and Chef T is extremely friendly. Thank you for helping make our son’s special day even better!

  Chef T is a wonderful resource to have in our local community. The meals that she creates tantalize all taste buds with quality ingredients at an affordable price. Portions are hearty and every meal that I have had has been absolutely delicious!

  Chef T is absolutely amazing! I hosted a client event at Jeremiah’s - a ravioli night. She was so smart, funny and warm. Everyone had a great time, making a meal together with her instruction, and then got to enjoy it together afterwards. Everything we made was delicious!! Will definitely be back!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

  We just had my daughter's birthday party here and it was awesome! Chef T was great with the girls, worked really hard to make the day special and the food they made was delicious! Everyone had a good time and we learned a few things about cooking. Also the party was a great value compared to many other places which made me happy! I will try their catering in the future for sure.

  Chef T did an amazing job catering a dinner for 14 of us! Prompt, pleasant, and DAMN can she cook!! Loved everything about our meal. Favorites: Hawaiian style chicken with pineapple - it was amazing! Roasted potatoes were perfectly seasoned and disappeared from the tray. Pasta with artichokes annd sun dried tomatoes was sooooo good. Everything she made for us was gluten free, but not a drop of flavor was lost. HIGHLY recommend - we will absolutely be catering with Chef T again!!

  We have ordered food from here several times and the flavor and service never fails. Chef T is beyond amazing.  She is so responsive and helpful, she is always on time with her deliveries or pick up, and the food is always fresh and delicious.  I have tried so much of her food including meat dishes, pasta dishes, fish dishes, salads, barbeque, foccacia, appetizers, and and every bite is somehow more delightful than the last.  Thank you for another successful gathering.

  We had a small family gathering and everyone raved about how delicious the food was! Especially the salad with brie and grilled apples and candied walnuts. Everything was superb! Thanks so much!

  Amazing service and food!  Ordering, pick up and payment was easy. I ordered side dishes for a large family bbq.  I got the oriental salad, crudite, fruit salad and lemony orzo which all were delicious, well presented and wrapped for travel, everyone complimented them. i highly recommend the max and cheese, it was out of this world!!  There were guests literally scraping the bottom of the pan!

  We had Chef T cater our daughter’s backyard birthday party for 25-30 people and we couldn’t have been happier. She was so easy to work with and did the hardest part of food-ordering for me (knowing how much food to get for the amount of people). Delivery was super on time and organized, and made our house smell amazing the moment it arrived. There wasn’t a single thing our guests didn’t rave about, but big winners were the teriyaki chicken skewers, the bacon wrapped shrimp, the fried chicken, and the pasta salad. Using Jeremiah’s made it so much easier to enjoy the day - we’ll definitely be using them again, and look forward to trying more of the menu!!

  I’m so glad that I decided to give Jeremiah’s catering a try. We ordered Passover dinner and it was absolutely delicious. I found my go to catering spot.
