How Two Chefs Build Elegant Brunch Menus

Send us Fan MailYou can taste the difference between “somebody can cook” and “somebody can cater,” and we get into that gap with two heavy hitters: Chef Almost Famous (Jessica Jones of Love N This Grub) and Chef Danny B (owner of The Themed Cuisine). From the jump, we talk luxury catering the way it really happens, how you build an experience for weddings, milestone parties, and high-end events, and why presentation is not optional when you want premium clients.We also dig into what makes their food stick in your memory. Think French toast leveled up with homemade mascarpone whipped cream and a blueberry compote, candied bacon on the side, and a collard green dip that has people going back for “one more bite.” They share how they develop flavors, pull inspiration from restaurant runs and travel, and keep their menus from turning into the same tired event lineup everyone has seen a hundred times.Then the conversation opens up into partnership and business: how they met, how they work together, and the one place they actually bump heads, control in the kitchen (plus a running debate about putting honey on everything). We wrap by spotlighting Chopped Into The Return, their Charlotte brunch competition and day party built around creativity, real culinary judges, and a crowd that actually gets to eat the entries.If you like chef stories, catering gems, and the Charlotte food scene, press play and ride with us.
