I highly recommend Small Chef at Large for any size event. My family and I have attended many different parties, that Jennifer and her team were catering and it was wonderful every time! She captures the essence of the Florida keys while putting her creative spin on each dish!

My family hired Jennifer for 2 dinners on back to back nights in Jan 2024 in Key West. Jennifer was timely communicative, detailed, and helpful with advice on menu planning. She arrived on time both evenings with an assistant named Cindy. Both Jennifer and Cindy were a joy to be around - well mannered, professional, and just good kind people. And the food, presentation and taste, was fantastic! I'd recommend to family and friends and hope to see her again myself. Job well done - thank you Jennifer and Cindy :)

Used Jennifer for Thanksgiving dinner this past week and WOW! Everything was absolutely delicious. Not to mention she came and did a beautiful set up with fresh flowers. I highly suggest ordered the pecan cheesecake for dessert. Was the best cheesecake we’ve ever had! I would highly recommend Jennifer and we will be sure to use her on our next trip down to Key West!!

I've been a loyal patron of Small Chef in Large for many years. Chef and owner, Jennifer Cornell, has consistently provided me with exceptional service and delectable cuisine. Her Caribbean-inspired dishes with a Key West twist are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. Jennifer and her friendly staff are always ready to assist with a smile, making every visit an unforgettable experience. Small Chef in Large has truly enhanced my events, and I look forward to continuing to rely on Jennifer and her team for all my future occasions.

Delicious food that is also gorgeous. Living on an island, I appreciate Jen’s creative heat and eat meals. From delectable chicken pot pie to almond crusted snapper, everything is fresh and yummy.

I was so pleased with how our event turned out. Jennifer's presentation and professionalism was exceptional. She had an impressive array of culinary options to accommodate our groups varying dietary restrictions. She paid attention to every detail, even using edible flowers to make our meal as beautiful as it was delicious. Thank you for the experience, Jennifer!

I had the most amazing experience with Jennifer Cornell and Small Chef at Large catering! From the planning to the actual event, everything went off without a hitch. Jennifer was able to accommodate all of my special requests and dietary needs. Her employees on service were amazing! Look out for "E". Everything start to finish was 5 stars. I will be a lifetime customer!

Chef Jenn and her crew is the Best in Key West! I have worked with her on various events. 30 people to a small brunch. She is responsive, on time, very communicative, CREATIVE and will make your event a success of any size. I cannot say enough nice things. She has wonderful contacts as well if you are not from Key West. Last but not least the FOOD, everyone loves it and it is on point Delicious.
Chef Jennifer aka “Cookie” rocks! She managed our private catering needs throughout the week for a party of seven aboard the Bella Magio. Meals were creative and delicious. The only negative, I am cooking for myself now!

Chef Jennifer is amazing…her food, her presentation, her personality. Our first night in Key West was amazing as Chef Jennifer cooked a fabulous surf and turf dinner aboard the boat! …and she topped it off with guava key lime pie with toasted coconut whipped cream for dessert. My family agreed this was the best meal we have ever eaten! Thanks, Chef Jennifer!!!

Jennifer prepared 4 meals for us during our vacation. She presented menus ahead of time, there was great dialogue and she had many ideas. So I had high expectations of the food before we even arrived and she exceeded those expectations. We loved every dish of those 4 meals. She was a joy to work with and you could taste the love in her food.
