Tara is from a long line of Caterers who operate throughout Ontario, one could say it is in her blood. While studying Event Management and Marketing Tara also worked in the industry, gaining an overview of the many aspects of the business. Wedding receptions, dinner/ lunch functions, breakfast meetings, golf tournaments and even restaurant functions such as Christmas/ New Years Eve and Valentine’s day are all part of Tara’s extensive reparatory of events over the last twenty years.

The strength of having a strong, well trained, motivated and organized staff is of prime importance which she has achieved time after time. A function, no matter what type, should be enjoyable and memorable for our guests and simple to plan for the organizer. This coupled with quality food and beverage at a price that is fair is Tara’s mantra, as she says,” Do the job right first time and our customers will keep coming back.”  Tara Hill, a Catering Manager, Event Planner, who will work with you and for you.

For the next four years, Michael learned about large scale production, team leadership and improved his organizational skills. After  returning to Ontario Michael took a position as Sous Chef with the Liberty Grand in Toronto, where large weddings and other gala events are standard.
