Personal chef services specializing in small private events such as holiday parties, dinner parties, cocktail parties, romantic dinners for two, and business events. From start to finish I believe that a client should be given service that is as unique as they are. I do not offer a "standardized" menu that offers the same 7 dishes that everyone has to pick from. Your menu is created with you in mind and based upon your event, guests, and dietary needs. Prices are all inclusive and include groceries, hourly rate for in home preparation, cleanup and any serving pieces required. As a chef, I specialize in classic French and authentic Italian as well as Middle Eastern and Asian cuisine. In the 14 years I have been a chef/personal chef I have become a master at the art and skill of throwing a swanky EFFORTLESS dinner or cocktail event. Looking for something different? I also offer a "Chef's Tasting" menu which with encompass 8-10 micro courses giving the diner a wide range of tastes and delights, just as you would get in a Chicago 5 star restaurant.

On delivery day the company was prompt arriving a few minutes early and everything was fresh and hot too. We had the chicken, brisket, mac and cheese, pasta salad no pepperoni, green beans, and brownies. Everything was so delicious and it came with bread rolls too.

William knows his way around an industrial kitchen, he found the warmer and stored our extra trays to keep them warm.  All the trays were labeled perfectly so that we could easily replace the covers.  We had enough food left over to donate to the community center where our event was held.  When William called to follow up after the weekend, he was happy to hear that we'd done so, his business also donates food.  If you have an event in the Quad Cities and you're seeking good BBQ and southern comfort food, I recommend Strickly Southern Catering.  Without a doubt, 5-Stars!

I recognize they are operating in a different environment, especially being over two hours away from the competition found in Chicago. In any case, I found myself hungry in Rock Falls, so I stopped in at La Familia. I had the opportunity to try a carnitas taco, an al pastor taco, and a tamale. I also ordered an horchata to drink. The food was a mixed bag, but with some notable high points. The highlight of the meal was the tamale. The exterior was soft and flavorful, and the interior was appropriately meaty with a good, mild flavor. I believe this was my first experience with a tamale, and it was an enjoyable one at that. For the tacos, I appreciated that the proteins, onion, and cilantro were all in balance and that they didn't skimp on the meat. I am a traditionalist and asked for my tacos with just onion and cilantro, rather than their standard of lettuce, tomato, and cheese. While the meat had a mild flavor and wasn't completely bland, it needed something more to stand on its own. To be fair, there is salsa, lime, and two varieties of El Yucateco hot sauce available. However, being the purist I am, it is my belief that food should be able to stand alone without condiments. That said, with these tacos, it felt like something was lacking--perhaps sauce, crema, or pineapple with the al pastor. I'd also like to call out the complimentary chips and salsa offered at the beginning of the meal. I loved that the salsa was served in a little spouted container and that the tortilla chips were clearly homemade. They were a bit unusual, with layers flaking off (not a bad thing, just not often seen in restaurants). I also liked that they had a little bit of salt... far too many places skip that, and how can you skip the salt? My horchata was an absolute delight with great flavor. It was a tad sweet for my taste, but that's more a matter of personal preference than a technical issue. The service was a major highlight. It was very kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. The staff was also quick and efficient. Final Verdict: La Familia is very solid and respectable as a family-run, home-cooking-style restaurant. While to be 100% honest it doesn't hold a candle to some of the things you might find in downtown Chicago, Pilsen, or Cicero, that isn't the expectation. With this in mind, it does its job well. While I'm not going to come all the way back to Rock Falls just to eat here, when I find myself in town, I can't say I would be totally against it.

However, I do wish it was a little brighter light in the restaurant but I guess they get the name Candlelight for a reason. Our waitress was AMAZING! We had a large party and she was so great at attending to all of us. I was so glad I got to stop in during my time in town and Chicken George will be something I dream about until my next visit.
