Owner/Executive Chef
I am originally born and raised in California and later attended Culinary School at Fresno Institute of Culinary Arts. I decided to start my own business because I felt I could offer a one-of-a-kind Catering Service! I LOVE my job and.. well, not many Caterer's do what I do. I cater strictly to Dinners and Events up to 100 Guests. I can give better attention to detail and forwarded SAVINGS to my client's. I am also unique in that we offer PARTY Chef's to Re-Heat and Present other Caterer's Dishes adding Flair and Enabling the HOST to spend time with THEIR Guests.

The private chef dining experience with Savory Solutions Personal Chefs & Catering was an absolute amazing, one of a kind experience! I'm so grateful to have found Chef Jeremy and his staff to book such an exquisite dining and entertainment event to celebrate my birthday! I wanted to do something different and this definitely exceeded my expectations.
Not only was the food delicious but the energy Chef Jeremy and his wonderful assistant, Jessica, brought with them was unimaginable. We had so much fun from the dining experience to the various surprises at the end of the night! Chef Jeremy was very professional and attentive from the start. I appreciated the detailed questionnaire that I had to fill out so our menu could be personalized to our preferences.
Chef Jeremy went above and beyond to accommodate the dietary restrictions in the group and made sure everyone felt comfortable and special! He was able to adjust to our small cabin kitchen with limited cookware and still create a mouth watering three course meal including accommodating for one vegetarian diet in the group without compromising the integrity of the meals.
We loved every single course that was served! Chef Jeremy and his assistant handled everything from prep to a thorough clean up at the end of the night. My group and I were able to kick back, relax, and completely enjoy the experience without any worries. He helped make our trip and my birthday celebration extra special and I can't thank him enough.
Communication from the staff was excellent throughout the entire process. Kristine made booking the event, setting up the menu, and figuring out logistics very easy. She did an amazing job communicating and coordinating everything for the dinner through e-mail. She even assisted me with booking a VIP tour at Ole Smoky Moonshine Distillery for my group - which was an added bonus at no extra cost that Chef Jeremy threw in with booking the private chef event with him.
I would definitely recommend this tour as well - my group had such a great time and the tour and tasting was a lot of fun! We truly had an amazing event and appreciate the first-class service we received! The experience definitely exceeded the value and I have no regrets! It was one of the best parts of our trip! I will definitely be booking Chef Jeremy again if I'm ever in the area in the future. So if you are considering booking your event with Savory Solutions, do it! You will be so happy you did!

We booked our reservation months in advance and completed a survey for the chef to prepare our menu. The chef was quick to respond to all of our questions prior to our event. The day of the event, we met Chef Jeremy and his Sous chef. They came to the house prepared to make us an amazing dinner. Our experience exceeded expectations, as he showed up with bday decorations and music for entertainment. The dinner presentation was great and the food was delicious. We highly recommend Savory Solutions for your next dinner event.

We were so grateful to have Savory Solutions cater our bachelorette trip. I researched so many places (because we are visiting), and I chose this one because of the reviews. Boy were the reviews correct! From the very beginning, they provided excellent customer service. I received frequent updates from Chef Jeremy and Kristine. As we got closer to the date, they continued to check in.
When they arrived at our cabin, our power was out. There was a severe wind warning, which knocked down a power line, leaving us without power. We had been playing telephone tag and could not get ahold of each other. They so very kindly accommodated us by coming back the next night. Our evening was fantastic. We had a PHENOMENAL 3 course meal. One of our girls made the comment, "This is the first time I haven't had to put salt on my food in so long".
I cannot commend them enough for their top tier customer service. They were so kind and perceptive. They even brought some bachelorette decor items and treats. Once the evening was brought to a close, they even went above and beyond and cleaned the kitchen. We were so thankful for this experience. I 10/10 recommend this company.

We researched several different Chefs and company's to cook at my 50th birthday party. We decided to hire Chef Jeremy because his reviews were good, he was friendly, professional and promised us a great meal and experience.he seemed excited and very invested in our experience. In our first conversation he promised it would be one of the best experience's we have ever had.
He said he would bring a karaoke machine, and get everyone involved. He said it would not be just amazing food but great entertainment. This was exactly what we were looking forward to and why we chose Chef Jeremy. On the day of the event. We were surprised when it wasn't even Jeremy that came to cook for us. We had not been told he was sending anyone else.
We were disappointed because this was not the chef we had read reviews about or personally talked to, and we basically knew nothing about her. They did not know it was my birthday and they did not bring a karaoke machine. The team was friendly but not as entertaining as we had expected. We were told by Jeremy that he understood that since we were staying in an Airbnb that the kitchen may not be properly equipped and that he would be bringing proper supplies.
Our chefs had no idea that it wasn't properly equipped and they were not prepared. The food was good but not as amazing as you would expect after paying $97 a person. They made last minute accommodations for us to add two last minute guests and then those guest canceled last minute. We called Jeremy and explained the situation in under 24 hours. He refused to give us a refund, saying he had already bought the food.
We accepted that at the time. When we asked the chef how many people she was prepared for she said 6 not 8. We do not feel like they had enough food to feed 8. We are feeling as if we were taken advantage of and over paid by $218.00. I really wanted to love this experience as it was my first time having a personal chef. I can not help but feel like we did not get what we were promised and especially What we paid for.

The Smoky mountain Best experience you will ever have! We hired them for our wedding, we had prime rib, salad, sides. All is farm to table, is able to make anything. & be able to customize a meal for food allergies, or that special diet. Our guest are still talking about that was the best food ever! You won't regret it at all. Pics of salad was all I was able to get photo of as a bride.

I wanted to send a huge shout out to Savory Solutions Personal Chef's & Catering! While vacationing in the Smokies (October 2021), we hired Chef Jeremy for our baby sisters 50th bday dinner! It was not only delicious but, the staff was professional and courteous. Dinner was prepped, served and cleaned up at our VRBO rental! They took care of everything!
Chef Jeremy even sang a couple of songs at the end of dinner! Only wish we had gotten a photo of the dinner salad! The homemade dressing was amazing! Thank you for helping make cherished family memories!

We booked savory solutions (chef Jeremy) for our anniversary. He custom tailored a menu to our liking. When we arrived at our cabin, there had already been a few hiccups to our vacation. It was so refreshing that chef Jeremy was able to turn our night around. He had samples from ole smokey distillery for us to try. He was a very personable guy you enjoys doing this line of work.
We had great conversation and the food was amazing. He ended our evening with a love song that he sang to us. It was so sweet! I would definitely use his service again. Thank you for an unforgettable time!

Booked Chef Jeremy and he arrived with an assistant for our 4 course experience. Food was fantastic and unlike anything I ever had. I'm amazed with what they created using our dated and unpredictable cabin utilities. The chef was outgoing, passionate and funny. My only regret is not packing the leftover sauces!

Chef Jeremy is Amazing! It was a private eloping ceremony and dinner for my husband and I. We said our vows, and since we didn't have any guests with us, Jeremy took pictures for us, and even signed as our witness on our wedding license. It was never agreed upon that he would do those things for us, but he did them anyways, and we are so very grateful to him for that.
He made us a 3 course Surf'n'Turf dinner that was so delicious. He even brought a bottle of Champagne and samples of Moonshine! Chef Jeremy was personable, professional, funny, courteous, and respectful. It was a great night. I can't think of anything bad to say about him, at all, and I think the few people that have left bad reviews on here need to check themselves before they wreck themselves.

My husband and I original anniversary plans had changed due to COVID-19. We decided to visit Pigeon Forge, TN, and hire a personal chef for dinner. I was very pleased with Chef Jeremy and the services he performed. We had a 5 course meal, and everything was delicious. He also serenaded us with a few special songs. Thanks Chef for all you did for us!

George and I got married this past Saturday, May 25,2019. Savory Solutions catered our Wedding reception! They were awesome! We could not have chosen a better Caterer! The food was amazing! Manyof our Guests asked us where we found them! We searched and when we spoke to Chef Jeremy my husband said we have to have them! His personality was outstanding.
We also had Dj Sky from there business handle the music and karaoke. Chef Jeremy (Dj Sky) sang our first song as husband and wife and he sounded great! The caterers handled everything from cooking to music, to clean up! We so recommend Savory Solutions for any Event if you want the best! Thank you! George and Rhonda! From Parrottsville Tennessee.

Chef Jeremy and Christie prepared dinner for 22 Chix of 66 girls at our cabin last night. The food was delicious! And beautifully presented! Loved the Parmesan crusted artichoke appetizers and the bananas foster dessert. We all enjoyed every minute. Even though the cabin oven was a little dysfunctional, Jeremy adapted and made everything perfect. Highly recommend this experience to everyone !!

Chef Jeremy and staff made my wedding day a day to remember. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a dinner service we will never forget. Very entertaining and made sure all of our requests were met. He even surprised my husband and I by singing our first song. I could not have planned it better myself. We were honored to have him be part of our celebration, and will definitely hire him again next time we come up to the Smoky Mountains. Thanks Chef Jeremy.

Jeremy was our personal chef for five days, providing two meals a day. Each meal was delicious, beautifully presented, with the freshest ingredients. In every way, Savory Solutions is professional and accommodating. Jeremy was very attentive to each of our requests and anticipated even the smallest details, making our mealtimes a delight. I hope to have other occasions to use Chef Jeremy's services.
