It was, without the slightest competition, the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding!

“I just wanted to let you know how much I loved the food at T and D’s wedding. It was, without the slightest competition, the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding, and something I would have be thrilled to be served in a proper restaurant. I even had three servings of kale salad! The staff was also outstanding — friendly, professional, adept, fun. There was one woman in particular who was just amazing to my table. She got the to-go containers we asked for, wrapped up some extra popcorn, and was just generally a joy to get to know. Fantastic event, and I look forward to eating more of your group’s food in the future. Also, now I know who to tell people are the best caterers I’ve eaten with in Somerville. Thanks again, and all the best!”

They offer in-home cooking as a healthy alternative to standard take-out. If you’re local, go look. They are AWESOME.

"I ran into a friend of mine JJ…. she’s a CHEF and started her dream catering company: an amazing local-organo-farm-to-table outfit called “Cuisine en Locale.” They even offer in-home cooking as a healthy alternative to standard take-out. If you’re local, go look. They are AWESOME."

Cuisine en Locale is far beyond the usual.

“Cuisine en Locale is far beyond the usual. This is local real food with meticulous preparation and cooking. I just don’t see anything ever being better than this.”

This week, the tzatziki drew my attention the most. The fresh, red beet taste was like ‘WOW BAM BAM’!

"Dear Cuisine en Locale, I’m writing you clandestinely from my mom’s email account. That’s because I’m 6 months old, and I don’t have email yet. I write to you tonight to thank you for finally getting my parents to sign up for your personal chef service. After weeks of uninspired baby food, I finally got to eat something good. This week, the tzatziki drew my attention the most. The fresh, red beet taste was like ‘WOW BAM BAM’! I had it along with oatmeal puree – a sin, but since I only have two teeth, I had to take a pass on the crackers. The color was the brightest, deepest purple I had ever seen, and I thought it complemented my lips quite a bit.”

The aroma of a home cooked meal filled the air as we warmed our plates.

"Good morning Cuisine en Locale! The food was absolutely WONDERFUL. I had been looking forward to your meals for several days...anticipation continued to build until the time I could plate my meal. I was nervous inviting a friend with dietary needs to join me. She was put at ease by the clear menu descriptions and was able to easily steer toward menu items that would not agitate her wheat and dairy sensitivities. The aroma of a home cooked meal filled the air as we warmed our plates. Within 15 minutes of arriving home, dinner was served. We had tender pork bellies with apples, rosemary and grains, honey carrots and savory scotch broth with biscuits. The all natural, locally grown or raised stock with expert preparation warmed me through and through. Oh, it was divine. I can not wait for this next week’s meals!"

You guys are, as ever, a lifesaver for me in these situations!

"Why I love CeL: At dinner last night before I fell asleep—after flying back from the Middle East to the West Coast, then back to Boston yesterday. When it’s 6 AM and you wake up jet-lagged and starving, there is no substitute for fantastic local meals that you can just heat up. You guys are, as ever, a lifesaver for me in these situations!"
