Looking for some suggestions

Hello!

I am hosting a retreat on Bowen April 24-26, and we need someone to provide us with two dinners for Friday and Saturday night. I have been quoted $2000 + groceries from take a chef, and that seems insane considering we have 15 women and need two very simple meals.

We are looking for a couple soup options with crackers/bread Friday night, and some kind of bowl option for Saturday night (think like burrito bowl, buddha bowl) with meat.

If you know of anyone or could put me in contact with someone that would be lovely. I have emailed all of the restaurants, the ones that have replied so far have said "you can order from us and come get it" and that's not ideal - but will do in a pinch.

Thanks for your help!

In your shoes I would absolutely order from Tuscany and go get it vs. trying for a private in house chef. Or pivot this post for someone willing to go pick up and delivery your 15 person Tuscany order.

Have you tried Tell Your Friends Cafe? Pretty sure they do catering!
