Laura delivered a meal for our bachelorette weekend at Keuka Lake and we were blown away by the…read morequality of the food. To start, I had multiple conversations with Laura to relay the varying dietary restrictions of our group of 13 ladies. She was up for the challenge and provided me options for a menu that would accommodate every single person (gluten free, pescetarian, low fod map). It is so rare to have a meal for that many people that pleases everyone, and yet she accomplished it. Laura's husband dropped off the meal right on time, with instructions on how to heat up the entrees which was quite easy. We enjoyed a few appetizers (multiple people said it was "the best eggplant dip they had ever had"), then sat down for a beautiful meal with an amazingly fresh salad and delicious entrees. Laura provided all of the plates and cutlery, which made cleaning up a breeze. Thank you so much for providing one of the highlights of our weekend! I am already recommending your business to other groups who I know are going to the Finger Lakes for upcoming trips!

Her locally sourced food was excellently prepared and served family style, which allowed for guests to have different tastes of each beautifully made dish and to keep things casual and flexible.

We ordered Thanksgiving dinner from Serendipity catering this year and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! The…read moreturkey was perfectly prepared and delicious. I'm not much of a stuffing person but I ordered it for the rest of the family. Serendipity's stuffing has made a convert of me! Perfectly spiced, lots of mushrooms and veggies with terrific bread. The gravy was almost like Mom's. I loved their take on cranberry sauce. I ate it cold instead of warming it up. Can't say enough positives about the whole experience from ordering to pick up to warming everything for dinner. Easy instructions and flawless flavors. Thanks to the team!

On top of the food being fantastic, Emily and Isaiah are great to work with. They're super professional, very accommodating, and up to the challenge of just about any dietary restriction. They source as many of their ingredients locally as they can and donate excess food at the end of an event to local organizations. When you combine their community impact with their talent and great prices, there's really no better option than Word of Mouth.

I appreciated that she had a few coconut-free options such as the chocolate tahini cookie (delicious). We were heartbroken to learn that the business is likely closing down soon as the owner retires.
