Culinary Designs - Thornbury

Culinary Designs Season and her team at Culinary Designs are absolutely fantastic and the best wedding catering team we could have dreamed of. They catered our 30 person wedding at Serenity Cottage in Owen Sound in October 2019 and people are still talking about how amazing the food was. From the very beginning, Season was super helpful and thoughtful about putting together our wedding menu. She included foods from my and my husband's backgrounds, special options for kids, and accommodations for food sensitivities (dairy and gluten free). Season was always professional, quick to respond, and easy to talk to. On the day of the wedding, Season, Kelly, and her team arrived early and took charge of the catering. I didn't have to worry about a thing, which is priceless for a bride on her wedding day. The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The serving staff were attentive and professional. They not only took care of the big ticket items (food, servers, etc.) but also all the small details. We were grateful to wake up the next morning to find all the leftovers wrapped up in the fridge and all the rental dishes packed away for us. If you are planning a wedding or event in the Owen Sound/Thornbury area, I highly recommend Culinary Designs. You won't regret it.

I visited Canada for the first time, in the Summer. I fell in love with the large City atmosphere in Toronto, and the smaller towns such a Collingwood and Thornbury. Whilst in Collingwood my boyfriend proposed to me. After the proposal drinks we went back to his parents house, where someone from the Culinary Delights team was there preparing an array of delicious appetisers for the family. The gentleman was extremely skilled, and knew his way around the kitchen. Whilst we were socialising outdoors, the chef was indoors making delicious dishes for us to enjoy. Perfect portion sizes, and beautifully presented the food was thoroughly enjoyable, and matched the relaxed, intimate setting which we wanted. The chef presented the dishes and gave us a description of what the dish included. The entire family loved the food and the evening, and it was a wonderful way to celebrate our engagement, in the comfort of our own home, with such high quality food. I would highly recommend the Culinary Design Catering team.

We are so happy to have had Season and her AMAZING team cater our wedding this past fall at a cottage on Georgian Bay. For us, food was really important for our wedding (we love food! so we wanted to have fresh, local and unique food for our guests and Culinary Designs did just that! We were blown away by the array of appetizers and the amount of food for our main dishes. Our family is still talking about all the delicious food from our wedding! Season went beyond just planning our menu for our wedding. She helped with questions we had about rentals (serving dishes, glassware, etc. , timelines and was able to accommodate dietary allergies some of our guests had. Season was always so friendly and quick when responding to questions. We both really respected Season and her confidence – in herself and in her team’s work and their ability to create a beautiful and delicious menu for us. This put us at total ease, knowing we were in such good hands. Kelly, who was the event coordinator for our big day was also amazing! Kelly helped create a day-of schedule for our wedding to help keep us organized (no detail was forgotten! . On our wedding day, Kelly arrived early and jumped right in and helped our families set-up. She was so lovely to be around and work with! Kelly regularly checked in with us throughout the night to make sure we were on schedule for dinner and dessert. We never once had to ask Kelly and the Culinary Designs team to do anything throughout the day or night. They just knew what needed to be done and proactively did it. It took the stress off of us and we were able to just enjoy the night, knowing everything was taken care of. We really cannot recommend Season and her Culinary Designs team enough to cater your next event or wedding! You will not be disappointed!

I came to Thornbury for a week and was hungry but didn't feel like dining in a restaurant. I decided to stop at this place and ordered several salads and stuffed chicken to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and taste of the food. I plan on coming back multiple times this week to get more. The cauliflower and grape salad was especially delicious, and the stuffed chicken with cheese and spinach was outstanding. I highly recommend their food. It was also very convenient to take home, heat up, and enjoy in the comfort of my own home.

This restaurant serves the most delicious food prepared by a team of talented chefs. We have been relying on Season and her crew for years to cater to our family and guests, and they never disappoint. Their culinary creations always impress and delight everyone who tries them. Culinary Designs has a special talent for creating food and dining experiences that people absolutely love. When life returns to normal, we can't wait to host parties with their amazing food. If you want to impress your guests and show them you care about their enjoyment, Culinary Designs is the perfect partner. Personally, I have never taken cooking classes because I know I could never replicate the incredible dishes we get from them. Even during the lockdowns, we continue to order from them for our family meals and date nights because in these difficult times, enjoying delicious food is a small pleasure we can all appreciate.
