I have worked in the catering industry for many years. When we moved to the Adirondack region of New York and realized the opportunity here, I was so excited. I have run my business with integrity and a real personal touch. Always striving to create the event my clients have dreamed of. Each of our clients are unique. It is my job to work with each of them and create an event that speaks to who they are and celebrates their style.  Commitment to detail and a personal touch, creating menus that make our clients feel as though they are “at home” are our goals.  We look forward to serving you, your family, and your friends soon.

Rachael is an insurance professional and has worked in the bar industry for 9 years. In 2018, she found herself missing the creative outlet mixology provided in the bar business. She started working with Deliciously Different after meeting Robin through networking and decided bartending weddings was a great way to utilize her skills behind the bar without giving up her career. Rachael enjoys crafting specialty cocktails for our couples and their guests on their wedding day.  She is the perfect addition to our team, providing a fun and energetic vibe at events.  Rachael will ensure that your custom bar experience is flawless!

Brandon,a native of Detroit, Michigan, there he worked with the area’s top chefs, rising quickly through the ranks of Detroit’s burgeoning food scene, to become one of Motor City’s youngest Executive Chefs at age 20. At the age of 26 Brandon was named Best Chef—2016 by the Detroit Metro Times.

Since then, Brandon has found his way to Upstate NY. He had the title and job, but was eager to develop his skills and experience.  Brandon also was itching to connect more with nature, so landing the position with The Whiteface Lodge in Lake Placid, was a great fit. Just a few days after accepting the award for best chef he moved to the adirondacks. He has also worked with Mazzone Hospitality honing in on his catering skills, also at Plumb Oyster Bar in Troy.   More recently, he is proud to say, he helped open Walt and Whitman Brewing located in Saratoga Springs where he learned much about himself as well as his style of cooking. 

Brandon, being part of a tight knit, though somewhat extended, Polish/Italian/American family was the start of his  culinary journey & gained a love of cooking. Brandon describes his cooking style as “a little bit country, and a little bit Rock ‘n Roll”. 

We are so happy to have Brandon be part of Deliciously Different. His interest in baking as well as cooking is just the perfect fit as we open our new location. We are super excited to have his support and introduce him to our local community.
