Dave Schmidts
״Castor Catering is a top-notch private catering service exhibiting professionalism,
collaboration, and culinary skills. I first engaged Michael Beaver to plan and execute my wife’s 60 th birthday gathering in my home. While I had a high-level vision, Michael
expertly shaped my ideas by asking pertinent questions concerning the meal. He
walked me through various options concerning my wife’s tastes in all aspects of the
celebration.
During this initial interview, he provided me pros and cons for each
appetizer, meal and beverage options to provide a seamless coordinated event, while
keeping my vision was foremost in mind, He offered suggestions based on the region,
time of year, affordability and timing of preparation and serving of 15 guests.
Ultimately, together we selected a main course of tenderloin cut fillets served with chef’s secret bordelaise sauce. Our sides were simple yet elegant with fresh home-made spinach raviolo. stuffed with pistachio ricotta and topped with a bright stracciatella and lemon zest. Our salad of arugula mustard greens and champagne vinaigrette was tasty yet fefined.
From the well-designed colorful presentation of the charcutiery-appetizers, the specially crafted signature cocktails and wine pairings, guests raved about both the classy and tasteful dining experience in our home.
Michael and his wife, Lauryl, teamed together for a seamless experience with superiorpersonal service to all our guess. I highly recommend Castor Culinary to all my friends and family.״

״We hired Michael and Lauryl to cater a five course meal for a 65th birthday party for 14 people. The food, service, and overall experience was amazing from start to finish. This included fish, meat, pasta, cheese, and a dessert course. The food was fresh and high quality. I Highly recommend them for your next event. We will definitely be using them again!״
