The Pure Truth Culinary Services

Chris was amazing from the food to the service everything was just as good as i thought the experience would be and then some! I 10/10 recommend for an experience like no other!

Chef Chris and Leslie were fabulous to work with from start to finish. Leslie was accommodating when she and I worked on planning the event. The event itself was excellent. The food, service , and vibe were awesome. Thank you Pure Truth for an excellent experience!

Thank You Pure Truth Culinary Services for delivering delicious food and outstanding services during my retirement party.. My initial contact with you, reassured me that I would be in good hands. Where do I begin to capture how special you made my event.

I am very passionate about good food, good customer service and good people. You have demonstrated all of them plus more. The food was so good that everyone couldn’t stop talking about it. You were attentive and courteous throughout the event and I appreciate you for making my day awesome…

I truly want to say thank you to Chef Chris, Leslie and the entire Pure Truth team for making my retirement party memorable.
Special mention to the Meal Prep Services too!
I am a customer for life

COMHAR, a provider of services to people living with mental health and intellectual disabilities, is celebrating 50 years of continuous service to the community. The first celebration was an opportunity to honor our members with a disco dance and catered meal.
While searching for a caterer, Pure Truth Culinary Services was recommended. Working with Chris to design an appropriate menu for people with varying dietary restrictions was done with ease. On the day of the event, Leslie, Yusef, and Chef Dahmere got busy working in the kitchen and setting up the well designed serving tables. The hot food was hot when served and the salad was fresh and crispy. The Mac N Cheese “Martinis”, Pulled BBQ Chicken sliders, Cheesesteak Egg Rolls (Beef and Chicken), Mini Beef Tacos w/ Pickled Red Onions and Micro Cilantro, Mini Creamy Pasta Bowls, Mini Caesar Bowls w/ Roasted Chicken w/ Truffle Parmesan Dust were all delicious! Care was given to ensure that all platters were refilled on a regular basis and that the serving tables remained clean.
At the end of the event, they took great care to ensure that the kitchen was cleaner than when they arrived!
It was a pleasure working with everyone from Pure Truth Culinary Services and high praises were received about the food they provided. Thank you Pure Truth Culinary! We would have you cater future events.

Catered from Pure Truth for our birthday party and the food was amazing! Chris and team were so easy go work with and served delicious halal food! Will be using them regularly for events we have!

I had the pleasure of working with the incredible team at The Pure Truth Culinary Services, and the overall experience was outstanding. Their professionalism, the quality of their food, and their ability to genuinely connect with our guests truly set them apart. I would give them a 10 out of 10 and look forward to working with them again in the future. If you're planning an event, they should absolutely be at the top of your list!

I had the pleasure of working with Pure Truth Culinary Services for my 55th birthday celebration, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience! The menu was wonderfully diverse, offering something for everyone, and every dish was absolutely delicious—served at the perfect temperature with beautiful presentation.

Communication leading up to the event was detailed and professional. Every question I had was answered quickly, and all of my food preferences were carefully considered and flawlessly executed. On the day of the event, everything was seamless—stress-free and perfectly timed.

My guests are still raving about the food especially the lamb chops! I’m beyond grateful for the care and excellence poured into making my day so special. I’m already looking forward to working with you again.

First time trying this cuisine and the food was so flavorful and the people were amazing!!!

Pure Truth Culinary Services was a pure delight! We had a surprise birthday dinner this past Monday, and everything went perfectly. The food was delicious, and there was so much of it that we are still enjoying leftovers three days later! This option is so much better than going to a five star restaurant. Also, Chris and Leslie were incredibly easy to work with and were great communicators! If I could give them Michelin stars, I would :)

My husband and I had the distinct pleasure of having Pure Truth Culinary Services as the caterer for our August 2024 wedding. We began working with Chef Chris and his wife Leslie in early 2023 to curate the perfect menu. This team worked tirelessly to ensure we had the “Wedding of the Year” Our food was amazing and our guests are still talking about the creativity, care and taste of their chosen meals. We chose a plated meal.

For context, our wedding was held in Maryland and the Pure Truth Team is located in Philadelphia. Chef Chris made several trips to our venue to ensure he had the proper equipment to essentially build a kitchen at the venue! In addition, he hand delivered our tasting choices and listened to our likes and dislikes to curate an outstanding culinary experience from cocktail hour to cake cutting. Leslie was extremely communicative, gave me great ideas, and even snapped pre wedding pics for me.

Derrick and I can’t thank the Pure Culinary Truth team enough for everything! Book them now for all of your culinary needs! You won’t be disappointed!

The Mingo’s

We recently hosted a brunch for our company anniversary and our guests loved the food and friendly service. Folks especially loved the smoked gouda mac and cheese. We will be booking again! I hear they also do private dinners as well.

I had the pleasure of attending/experiencing one of their Private Garden Supper Series. The vibe , the people and the food was amazing . The chefs knew their assignments and executed it with such love and professionalism. I had the Butter Chicken Roulade which was cooked to perfection and my partner had the Chilean sea bass which came with a ginger forbidden rice..when I tell you that the taste was amazing is an understatement. And for dessert we had carrot cake w/ orange cardamon ice cream ..let's just say I am still dreaming about this carrot cake . Thank you for truly taking us on a culinary experience .

We had the immense pleasure of having a private chef cater for our book club gathering, and it was an experience that transcended mere culinary delight. From the moment chef Chris arrived, he exuded a level of professionalism and passion for his craft that was palpable.First and foremost, the food was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish and there were many, was a masterpiece, prepared with the finest ingredients and bursting with flavor. From the appetizers that teased our palates to the decadent desserts that left us swooning and very full. Every bite was a testament to the chef's culinary expertise and dedication to excellence.But what truly set our experience apart was the personalized touch that chef Chris brought to the table. He understood our dietary restrictions, and tailored the menu.Chef Chris's warmth and hospitality made the entire evening feel like a celebration among friends and family. He engaged with the group with genuine interest, sharing his recipes and cooking advice. It was as if we had invited a dear friend into our home, rather than hired a professional chef for the evening. We NEVER discussed the book....lol

Excellent meal! Seasoned to PERFECTION. Expert attention to detail. A 5-STAR culinary experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I absolutely love The Pure Truth Culinary Services! I’ve purchased items at a local farmers market, order their meal prep services and I’ve ordered event catering. The meals are always fresh and delicious, and the service is always prompt and professional. Pictured below is honey garlic shrimp w/yellow rice and mixed veggies; a dish I recently ordered through their meal prep services.
