To ensure you get the most exceptional experience with Come Eat Daddy LLC, please review the following policies and procedures before booking.
Services provided include:
- Catering
- Private Chef Dining
- Event Hosting
*Please adhere to the following policies and procedures for your desired service. *
Confirmation of catering order:
Once you receive your catering invoice, check to make sure ALL information is correct. Upon doing so, the deposit for services will be due within 24 hours to confirm your booking date and time. Failure to do so will result in a non-booked event and will need to be re-confirmed.
ALL CATERING DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE unless the chef must cancel or at the chef’s discretion of unforeseen circumstances. There is a $500.00 minimum to book catering services.
Guaranteed Attendance:
When booking catering for an event, the Client will propose a set number of guests, which will guarantee catering services for all included guests. However, once the guest list has been confirmed, there can be no reduction in the number of people served. Any additional guests must be approved seven days before the event to ensure all guests are accounted for and served.
Cancellations:
The remaining balance of your invoice must be paid in full seven working days before your event. If you have not paid your balance in full seven days before your event, you will be subject to cancellation, and the deposit will not be returned. Once the entire balance has been paid, cancellations may be rescheduled at a time that is doable for the chef. Deposits will be deducted from Cancellations, and the Client may be able to reschedule with the balance once the deposit is deducted. Change date fees may apply.
Equipment:
Come Eat Daddy LLC Catering offers loanable equipment that is rented hourly. Equipment may be kept from any catered event. All catered events come complete with the necessary supplies and equipment. If any additional equipment is needed, please get in touch with Come Eat Daddy a minimum of 7 days before the event.
Additional fees may apply.
Private Chef Experience:
If you are opting to enjoy a private dining experience, the following must be completed before a date and time can be booked:
- meeting and consultation (In person/ virtual)
- Confirmation of Invoice
- Deposit for services, which include grocery and cleaning supplies. (Prices will vary upon party size.)
*Please note that private dining versus catering is a different service — private dining includes a complete dining experience or set up, serving, hosting, and clean up*.
