about
Nomadic Chef Catering has a deep respect for the ritual of sharing a meal and the elements that inspire an evening of revelry. Menus are playfully conceived with a focus on seasonality while integrating a global narrative. We aspire to create dishes that are unique but accessible with a focus on layering texture and flavor that enliven your experience at the table.
Nomadic Chef was brought to life in 2001 by Chef /Owner Lauren Gammon. As an avid traveler, Lauren has been known to forage for ingredients in the markets across the world. With a respect for local dirt, she seeks what is peaking in the field and will shine on the plate. In the kitchen, attention is paid to crafting menus from scratch with careful consideration and attention to detail. The Nomadic Chef team is resourceful and dedicated with a levelheaded approach and show stopping presentation that has been appreciated for 20 + years in the catering field.
We primarily outfit large events and weddings from May through October. We want to hear what you envision and the food you love before customizing a menu that speaks to who you are. With our attention to detail and a load of experience, we assist you in mapping out an organized event that keeps you on track while your event begins to take shape. We are there to help you line up tents and rentals that will provide the infrastructure and design to make your event run beautifully regardless of weather. On the day of the event, we run a full-service operation that arrives early to set up, executes food and bar menus with helpful staff that puts you and your guests at ease so you can be fully present throughout the day and evening.

Looking forward to talking with you! I respond most quickly when contacted by email. Please include the date of your event, the location & venue, and how many people you expect will attend and we will get back to you shortly with a larger more in depth menu for you to explore. From there we can jump on a call so we can hear more about what you envision.
We are primarily a large event caterer for gatherings over 100 people with only the occasional exception. At this time we tend away from smaller special events/retreats and chef requests in people's homes while the majority of our business is geared toward weddings and large events.
