The roots of Chef's Catering can easily be traced back to the home kitchen, where Mike has been inspired by his family's traditions to carry out his dreams in the culinary field. Growing up, Mike's Nana was very special and influential, not only in the sense of providing nurturing love one gets from grandparents, but also taught him a tremendous amount of skill in the home kitchen, allowing him to combine that with the professional skill set he was provided with in Culinary school:

Mike is very thankful to those that have given him the experience and knowledge that have contributed to his success at a professional level. It's his love for food and cooking food that will allow Mike to constantly exceed expectations.
