THE EXPERIENCE

An evening
made personal.

A birthday, an anniversary, or a night with friends. A menu shaped around the occasion, your tastes, and what the season has to offer.

Private dinners

A thoughtful, coursed dinner in the comfort of your home. A menu developed around your tastes, with the season setting the direction.

Make an evening of it

Small gatherings

Birthdays, anniversaries, or simply a reason to get everyone together. Good food that feels generous, personal, and right for the occasion.

Bring everyone together

A menu of your own

Start with a favorite dish, a cuisine you love, or an entirely different idea. We’ll curate the courses around your preferences and discuss dietary needs as we plan.

ABOUT ZACHARY

Southern roots.
A curious kitchen.

I grew up in Susan Moore, Alabama, and study Culinary Science in Auburn University’s Hospitality Management program. I care about where an ingredient comes from, when it’s at its best, and what it can become.

Vegetables, fermentation, and seasonal cooking are a big part of how I think about food. Private dining brings that work to a smaller table, with a menu made for the people sitting down to eat.
