We Are a Seasonal, Local, & Chef Driven Boutique Catering Company

Braise Catering highlights the spirit of the season by showcasing what is available on each menu. We want you to have the best possible experience, so all of our menus are hand-tailored by the chef to your specific at home catering needs and guest’s tastes. We are more than happy to accommodate any allergies, affinities, or special requests. There is no party too small, and we can do everything from passed hors d’oeuvres to a multiple-course curated chef’s tasting menu with beverage pairings.

With over thirty years of restaurant and catering experience working in diverse and exciting cities from Boston to San Francisco to New York City, Chef Todd Macdonald brings creativity and execution to each Braise Catering event. From simple dishes that satisfy, to intricate menus that showcase new and exciting flavors. Let him be your trusted at home catering chef.
