Vancouver  - Savoury Chef Foods Ltd.

We were thrilled when Sarah and David approached us to cater their Daughters wedding celebration. Being the owners of one of BC’s top tomato producers, it was apparent that freshness of produce and a menu to reflect the season was a top priority.

What a great evening of friends and family tented under the Gipaanda Farm. Served family style, we very much enjoyed being part of this special day.

Feedback

“I don’t know if Taryn said, but we had a wonderful day – everything was perfect, even the light show. Everyone thought the food was super. It was all excellent and both David and I were very happy with Savoury Chef Foods……. The salmon was perfectly cooked –only just cooked so it was sooo moist….”
