What you'll do:

Turn your Upstate getaway into an exclusive dining event without leaving your vacation rental. Choose the format that fits your weekend vibe: a Formal Multi-Course Plated Dinner or a Social Cocktail-Style Small Plates Party. Chef Bogdan arrives at your house fully equipped to cook, present, and serve your chosen menu.

• Arrival & Setup: Chef Bogdan sets up in your rental kitchen while your group relaxes, pours drinks, and gets ready.

• Your Choice of Dining Style:

  • Option A: Multi-Course Plated Dinner — Sit back for a relaxed 3- or 4-course seated meal featuring handmade pastas, braised meats, and beautiful plating.

  • Option B: Cocktail-Style Small Plates Party — A high-energy, lounge-style experience with heavy passed bites, elegant grazing boards, and small plate stations perfect for mingling.

• BYOB & Socialize: Pair your dishes with your favorite wines, bubbly, or custom batch cocktails without restaurant markups.

• Full Cleanup: After service, the kitchen is completely cleaned, wiped down, and sanitized so you don't have to lift a finger.

Why we love it for your party:

• Flexible Party Formats: Pick a seated multi-course dinner for a classic celebratory vibe, or a cocktail-style setup if your group prefers to stand, mingle, and move around.

• Zero Stress, No Logistics: Skip booking large restaurant tables, organizing rides, splitting checks, or waiting in crowded entryways.

• Camera-Ready Plating & Bites: Every course and small plate is styled to impress—perfect for photos and aesthetic group celebrations.

• Tailored to Every Palette: Menus are customized to your preferences, with full accommodations for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, or vegan guests.

• Spotless Kitchen Guarantee: The entire kitchen space is restored to pristine condition, leaving zero dishes or trash behind for your group to handle.
