Our Boutique catering company…
Priding ourselves on the experience provided to our clients, creating menus inspired by memorable dishes we’ve enjoyed around the world.
With the wide variety of ingredients found here in North Carolina, our recipes highlight the best seasonal ingredients that our region has to offer. Through responsible sourcing, our world experiences are united with our local purveyors and abundant produce.
Specializing in….
eclectic worldly foods, with the use of fresh local ingredients, our chef creates the flavors she knows and loves with the techniques learned through her travels and background in the kitchen. Most everything is handmade, as necessary to fit with the menu style, the careful planning and preparation demonstrated in the dish is always a huge hit with clients.
Our operation is simple. It starts with an initial discussion about what our clients are interested in during a brief initial consultation, then our Belle Saveur chef prepares a drafted menu with dishes that clients could choose from, tailored especially for their event. This style of service requires a delicate mix of understanding the needs of the client, technical skill, and ability to create specialty foods and assuring that it all finishes in perfect harmony on a plate. This is not so common in the catering world, which makes for a very intriguing niche.
Crafting such a personalized menu makes for a very intimate experience for the host and the guests who attend. Our customers play an instrumental part in the menu planning phase and it’s always nice to share your personality through delicious food and experience with your guests. It wasn’t long before clients became fans and recognized the difference with the kind of service and food they were getting from Belle Saveur.
