JJ catered our 100 person wedding brunch this past June. He was amazing to work with from beginning to end. Leading up to the event, he met with us several times to make sure that we had the details just right. He developed a delicious brunch menu, highlighting flavors of the PNW along with in-season fruits and vegetables. This was a lot of fun for us since we had so many guests from out of town. On the day of the event, his execution was flawless & the food was fantastic. One of the sweetest moments as new Bride and Groom was walking into the venue and a person we had never met before walked up with a smile and said "let me make you some plates-go sit down". It's small details like that that separate the excellent front the good. JJ is both! We could not have imagined a better experience overall. JJ is flexible, responsible, accommodating and communicative. His food is beautifully presented and equally tasty. Kudos to JJ. We hope to have an opportunity to hire him again and highly recommend him! - Hannah H.
If you have the opportunity to book JJ and Wanderlust, do it!!! We were lucky enough to have him as the caterer for our wedding and cannot recommend him highly enough. The food, of course, was absolutely wonderful (the gazpacho appetizer was a huge hit!). But on top of that, he and his staff were so professional and attentive - making sure we felt like royalty throughout our day (and that we actually got to eat!) He really goes above and beyond to make sure your event is everything you are hoping for. - Joelle T. Chef JJ Johnson is a gifted chef able to masterfully create an extremely wide scope of cuisines. He’s a thoughtful artist and an engaging person—highly recommended for your next catered event! - Rayne L.
