AG Catering

Stunning! Absolutely Stunning!
I had the immense pleasure to enjoy both a dinner and a cooking class with Chef Alex and his team. It is, by any measure, a memorable and highly, exceedingly enjoyable experience. It was, by any mean, a stunning, stellar experience.
The food is classy without being snobby; it’s elegant without being pompous. The presentation is clean, eye-​catching, and pleasantly elegant.
It’s definitively ultra fresh, local, in season and all (I mean *all*) the ingredients are very carefully selected.
As for the taste, well… Oh mother!
The taste, flavors and mouth feel will bring you down to your knees and make you beg for more.
if you believe the Chicken Mousse is die for, it’s because you have not tried yet the Halibut Rillettes or the Bacalao skewers: Perfectly crisp on the outside, fondant and moist on the inside. They let you discover a new world of flavors, sensations and mouth feels that I didn’t think could exist with «just» cod. It was not «good», «succulent» or «excellent», it was *Stellar!*
It would take me longer that you are you willing to read to describe everything, but the Duck sous vide, the perfectly executed Lyonnaise, Croquettes, Risotto and a Wagu Beef Culotte on a herbs crust, and so many more, all of them, will leave you with long lasting memories of happiness and pleasure.
The cooking class:
A group of us were given the opportunity to take a cooking class, each pair made a different dishes.
Just like many other Catering businesses do, AG Catering claims to provide an attention to details and the finest and freshest ingredients.
The difference is that Chef Alex stands to his word, to a point that is almost borderline insanity. It could be almost quantified as «Medical Condition» but a good one :) One can tell that it’s not faked, He has that in his blood.
You’ll discover ingredients that you do not know could exist, or could exist outside the finest and most exclusive restaurants.
When a Chef and his team are making their own smoked garlic powder (from scratch, please), their own Foie Gras with a fig crust, or make you taste a balsamic vinegar so old that he can vote (28 yrs.) you know that they went well, well above the call of duty to provide with the best experience you can ask for, or dream of.
All of the above is topped with a very generous amount of kindness, smiles and true generosity: Chef Alex and his team will guide you, explain and help in an absolutely non-​snobby manner: they’ll help you and guide you like a friend does.
To sum it, Chef Alex doesn’t only serves you «food», what he serves you is plated love. It’s culinary romance!
The proof is that, if you try it, you’ll definitively fall in love with it.
If you don’t hire his services, you’re a drooling idiot.
