With each event, I work to achieve that familiar feeling of the comfort, pleasure, and ease of a family celebration, while presenting the food with care and elegance, and incorporating the client’s unique perspective. We cook seasonally and are immeasurably fortunate to benefit from New England’s abundance of organically-grown produce, meat and fish.

 

Michelle Mulford UNCOMMON FEASTS FOUNDER

I owe my love of cooking and desire to make people happy through eating and drinking entirely to my Sicilian family. I learned to cook and care for others by watching my great aunts and uncles tend small backyard gardens, sitting with them at the kitchen table while they prepared handmade feasts for enormous family lunches and holidays. After 14 years working my way up through nearly every aspect of the food business – starting in restaurant kitchens, pie maker, personal chef to actors and directors and a stint at Formaggio Kitchen-South End – I started Uncommon Feasts in 2014.
