Thoughtful culinary experiences, creative food development, and personalized hospitality designed around the people, place, and purpose of each project.
What Studio Is
Studio by Scratch Test Kitchen brings together private dining, special events, intimate celebrations, culinary consulting, and personalized food services under one creative practice.
Every engagement begins with a conversation. Some clients need a memorable dinner. Others need help developing a menu, refining a concept, feeding a team, celebrating a milestone, or bringing an idea to life. The approach changes with the project, but the standard remains the same: thoughtful food, clear communication, and hospitality that feels personal.

At a Glance
Personalized chef experiences created for intimate gatherings, celebrations, and meaningful meals at your home, private venue, or the Scratch Test Kitchen chef's counter.
Boutique wedding dinners and small celebrations designed for couples who want the meal to feel personal, intentional, and deeply connected to the occasion.
Culinary experiences for organizations that want to gather clients, teams, or community members around something more thoughtful than standard catering.
Practical and creative support for food businesses, hospitality concepts, chefs, brands, and organizations developing or refining a culinary program.
Flexible food preparation for individuals, households, productions, and small teams seeking chef-prepared meals or a food service plan created around their needs.
A private dinner should feel more personal than a restaurant reservation and more intentional than traditional catering.
Each experience is developed around the guest count, occasion, location, season, and style of service. Menus may be plated, family-style, multi-course, or built around a specific ingredient, story, culture, or creative direction.
Designed for couples and families who want an intimate experience, thoughtful hospitality, and food that feels connected to the people being celebrated.
These are not large-scale banquet packages. Each celebration is approached as a custom dining experience, with attention given to the menu, pacing, atmosphere, location, and guest experience.
Corporate hospitality can feel polished without feeling impersonal.
Studio works with businesses, organizations, creative teams, and community groups to develop events that support a clear purpose. That purpose may be client engagement, team connection, storytelling, product introduction, fundraising, or cultural programming.
Studio consulting is designed for clients who need more than ideas. The goal is to build work that is creative, usable, repeatable, and operationally sound.
Engagements may focus on one clearly defined project or a longer period of development. The scope is created around the client's concept, available resources, timeline, team, and intended outcome.
Custom food services are designed for clients who want thoughtful, professionally prepared meals without committing to a traditional event.
Menus and service frequency are developed around household needs, schedule, preferences, dietary considerations, quantity, delivery area, and storage requirements.
How the Process Works
Tell us what you are planning, the date, location, estimated guest count, budget range, and what you want the experience or project to accomplish.
The request is reviewed for availability, scope, location, timing, and alignment. Additional questions may be sent before pricing is prepared.
Approved projects move into proposal, menu development, scheduling, and detailed planning based on the needs of the engagement.
A Good Fit
You want the menu, experience, or project to feel considered rather than selected from a standard package.
You are open to dialogue, creative guidance, and a process shaped by both your needs and professional recommendations.
You understand that guest count, timing, staffing, travel, equipment, service, and scope all affect pricing and execution.
You are looking for more than food delivery. You care about how the work feels, functions, and connects with the people it serves.
