HERE'S WHAT SOME OF OUR CLIENTS
HAVE SAID ABOUT THEIR EVENTS

 

Hi Jake,

 

Everything went really well on Saturday.  This was the best one yet (it was our 3rd Open House).  The food was terrific as well as the service from both Daniel et Daniel and Gatsby. All the staff were very professional, presentable (neat, clean uniforms etc.) and punctual. By 8.30 PM, you would never have known that we’d had almost 100 people through our home!

 Thanks again Jake for making our event a big success.

 

Kind regards,

Caroline

Hi Wendy and Lynn,

I just wanted to send you both a big THANK YOU for helping us with our catering order for the Wattpad Open House last night. The food was a great success. Margaret Atwood even came by and had some of the veggie spring rolls! I got so many compliments on the food selection, and of course, I referred them all to your website. Daniel et Daniel will definitely be at the top of our list next time we host an event.

Thanks again,

Pam

Hi Pierre,

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with you with respect to my mom's 50 birthday party. I want to say a big thank you for helping us select such a wonderful menu and for helping us out with any changes we wanted to make.
The party was a huge hit and for that i owe a huge thank you to Pierre and to our 2 servers Stephanie and Tammy.
Stephanie was an absolute delight to work with. She was a one-woman kitchen, making sure all the food was coming out in time and always looking fab. I would've been so stressed if it wasn't for her. She was fantastic.
Tammy was amazing as well. I asked her to be the bartender and in charge of the drinks. She was great and the cocktails she made were delish. Everyone always had a drink.
They were both very friendly and smiley and it was fantastic to have them serve at our party.
I just wanted to express how pleased I was with how everything went.
Thank you Daniel et Daniel and we will definitely keep you in mind for any future events.

Hi Pierre!

Everything was fantastic and went very smoothly!  The guests all raved about the food, there was lots of it and yet only a little leftover.  Nobody wanted to leave.  The staff couldn't have been any better - a great team!  All in all a huge success.

Rich and I wanted to send a special thank you to you – BOTH THE FOOD AND THE WINE WERE FANTASTIC at Noah’s Bar Mitzvah Saturday night.  We have had rave reviews and loved it ourselves!

Thank you for your incredible attention to perfection and your obvious passion for what you do – you do it well!!  We would work with you again anytime – if only all suppliers were as kind, eager to please and executed the way you did!  You should feel really good about your role in the event, and we thank you very very much!!

Hi Pierre

Wanted to let you know how wonderful everything went on Saturday.  The servers were amazing very on top of everything and all the rentals arrived with flutes there as well.  The food was outstanding.  There wasn’t anything that I would have done differently.  I loved the Quinoa salad, glad we added that in.  

Thank you for all your hard work, you were a pleasure to work with.

Dear Russ,

I think that next year I can just stay home on Event day because I know that with D&D handling the Awards Dinner, the event will be flawless!

Year after year, you and your team bring absolute excellence, talent and professionalism to the Canada Gairdner Awards. From the minute we start planning until the final paperwork is filed, you are on top of every detail. You help us pick and deliver a menu that delights our guests. You stay on top of the ever-changing critical minutia. You ensure that every guest is made to feel like a VIP. And you make me look like a star!

Your talented chefs, led by Vel Sivapragasam, must be singled out for their incredible abilities. I just don’t know how they can cook dinner for 550 people and have every meal turn out perfectly.  As well as your remarkable wait staff, headed by Steven Creelman, who serve the guests in what looks like a choreographed ballet. It is precise, efficient, skilled and quite beautiful to watch. Your team is unrivaled!

And then Russell, there is you. I can’t imagine putting together a team for any Event without you. You are such a professional and a sincere pleasure to collaborate with. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

On behalf of WaterCooler and my client The Gairdner Foundation, I would like to thank you and your entire team for making our event such a success. As always, you were the stars of the evening! I look forward to working with you all again very soon.

Cheers

Pierre,

Thank you again for your and the other D & D staff's hard work.  We have received an incredible amount of positive feedback this week about the party and about how much fun people had.  D & D's contribution was most certainly a big part of that.

 You will absolutely hear from us the next time we plan a party (although I'm going to need a while to recover before planning another party).  I will also pass on your name to anyone who is looking for a caterer or servers for an event.

Best regards,

Allison

Hi Jake,

Lindsey and I would like to say a big thank you to you and your team for all of your hard work with us these past few months and for helping to make our wedding a truly memorable and wonderful night. I can't tell you how many great comments we received from our family and guests about how good the food was and how professional the staff was. People told us that this was the best food they've ever had at a wedding! So, thank you!

Best,

Robert and Lindsey

Hi Jake/Pierre,

Thank you sooooo much for all of your hard work and assistance on our recruiting event last night.  The positive feedback was tremendous and everyone loved the design, food and service.

Jake...I hope that you are enjoying your vacation, although, we missed you last night.  You are amazing and we appreciate all that you do for us.

Pierre...thanks for stepping in for Jake.  You ran the event like the pro that you are and everything ran smoothly.  One thing...the "tent guy" took our Step & Repeat! lol! We went back today to pick it up and the DX said that they took it.  Can you please give Geoff a call and ask him to return it? Too funny!

Many thanks!

Hi Pierre:

Just a little note to thank you for making my first experience (from the other side of the table)  with Daniel et Daniel a  successful and pleasant one.

I, like many others in the City of Toronto, know of the high standards with respect to the

quality of the food - which did not disappoint - there is a reason you are known as the best!  What the general public might not know is that you have a great staff  behind the scenes who work  hard to accomodate whatever request is made of them and all the while working within their budget.

Thank you once again for responding so quickly to my many emails and for the  efficient, professional manner in which you took care of things.   Please also pass along my comments and  thanks  to Steve (sorry didn't write down his surname) our "super" waiter and the rest of the serving staff. 

Regards,

Mary

Russ;

 

I am so over the top happy. We have never had such great feedback on a client event – ever.  The food was incredible and your staff is absolutely wonderful.   Thank you so much Russell you are a doll!  I so look forward to working on this event again with you next year! 

 

Take care and again.  Thanks so much!

I just wanted to say thank you for all your help with our event on Friday. We were absolutely floored by the exceptional level of service provided by you and your team.

Based on this experience, we will definitely use Daniel et Daniel for all of our future events.

Thanks again!

Jake,

 

where do I begin...

 

First and Foremost Daniel et Daniel and yourself are at the very top of what you do and I cannot imagine the extravaganza that you have been a part of so for you to say that its left me speechless....I actually have tears now...

 

Our guests have not stopped raving about the food. They were blown away and so were we. My grandmother said the soup tasted exactly as she made it and it made her cry when she had it.

 

But its not only the food thats spectacular. Its you. You are not only a true Professional but you are witty, fun, easy going, super cool, personable and great energy to have around. 

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your hard work. I cannot thank you enough.

 

Big big hug!

Monsieur, Cher Daniel,

Votre équipe s’est pleinement adaptée au changement d’horaire.

En vous renouvelant mes remerciements, ainsi qu’a toute votre équipe, je vous prie d’agréer l’expression de ma meilleure considération.

I am certain that you hear this all the time, but I feel compelled to pass on a note to say that your catering is utterly incomparable.  The food is amazingly superb and the presentation exceptionally beautiful.  I’m always so, so happy (and calm) when I get the chance to order from Daniel et Daniel –  quite simply the best!!!

The day went so beautifully for everyone. The food was just fantastic, and I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful the staff were. No words can describe how incredible, how dedicated, polite and professional they are. Just incredible.

Hello Pierre,

We just wanted to thank you for your part in helping to make the Belated 60th Birthday party a big success.
Everyone raved about the food, and the fact that there was very little left of it at the end speaks to how tasty the guests found it. They were also most impressed to be served by trained staff, who were as professional as they were Good Looking! (not sure if that was intended, but it sure was appreciated) They made a fine team, and we never had to give a thought about what was going on behind the bar or in the kitchen, it all went so smoothly.

All the best to you,
Thanks !

Hi Meredith,


 I wanted to send a big THANKS!!! to you and the Daniel et Daniel Crew who worked the Dean's Reception.
As per usual with your team, everything ran so smoothly it was effortless for the Dean's Office team.  We needed only to focus on the attendees and the lecture itself.  It was particularly beneficial as we were short on volunteers and Annette and i were in fact running around so much prepping for the lecture and signing, we didn't get a chance to partake in the reception, itself, so to have it run off without a hitch with only a couple of volunteers helping, was amazing.
Even the rentals were dropped off/picked up with very little involvement from us!  All in all, fantastically well done and much appreciated.

Daniel;

I was fortunate to attend the Grand and Toy Admin Professionals Event last night at the Design Exchange in downtown Toronto. As I have not been a part of the "Corporate World" for a number of years, the catering truly took me back to the start of my career, when I once worked downtown in the Bay Street corridors.

I remember Daniel et Daniel in it's beginnings. I always found your company to be very thorough and provided amazing quality of food and perfect attentive service.  Back in the early 1990's I used your services quite a bit. I could always count on its expertise and never was I disappointed.
 
The food served last night was incredible. It was like having fireworks going off in my palate.   My colleague and I loved everything; especially the beef burritos! . The wine selection was superb as well and the generous servings were much appreciated.
 
The serving staff were very courteous and certainly were able to cover the floor quickly and efficiently; we never felt like we missed out on anything. They also always mentioned what we were eating and we found that to be a nice touch.  
 
It truly was a successful night and definitely your company played a big part in this.  I hope in future to have the pleasure of attending another event catered by your company.
 
Kudos to Daniel et Daniel.  You can add another feather in your cap
 
Sincerely,
Hilda

Daniel et Daniel expertly catered the Learn to Camp event. The attention to detail - Ontario Parks' colours, the serving plates (pieces of fresh wood) for example and the delicious food were all a hit with the crowd. My sincere thanks to you and your staff for a job well done.

Hi Pierre,
 
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for helping us with our party this weekend.   It was so much fun.  I only have the best things to say about the staff, and the food was amazing.  I got so many compliments throughout the night.   You guys are the best and I will definitely refer you to anyone who is throwing or having a party in the near future.  My husband loved all of it and he loved the food and service especially.   He even loved the theme!!! Yay!  Whew!!
  I loved all the little touches too - the cake (amazing - the detail of the silouettes were amazing - thank you chef!), the buffet menus  and adding the orchids (you know - my favorite). 


Thank you!

Hello Russell,

I recently organized a three-day conference for work, and used your catering services. I wanted to send a quick note letting you know I was very impressed with Pierre Andrew Valcarcel. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout the planning stage, and always prompt in his response time. He really went above and beyond what I expected.

siincerely,

Hi Laura and Russell,

This comes a couple days too late (due to the nature of our holiday party’s 3 day hangover impact), but I just wanted to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to both of you and all of the chefs and staff at Daniel and Daniel for helping to make our holiday party so special! I didn’t think it was possible, but the overwhelming response is that this year was THE BEST holiday party EVER! I thought we couldn’t top last year, but apparently it’s possible! It is all thanks to you and your team’s amazing hard work, customer service and attention to detail. The food was outstanding – I am still receiving compliments today on the brisket, mashed potatoes, smokies and of course, the plates of bacon. I personally enjoyed the mini burgers late at night when I pretty much danced off the meal I had earlier – absolutely delicious!

Laura - it was such a pleasure to work with you again to plan all of the details. You went above and beyond in almost every element – from creating our greeting cocktail to giving advice at random times throughout the day to my calls regarding linen colour and chairs. You continue to be the Queen of event planning and successfully combining “classy gala event” with an outrageously fun party!

Happy holidays!

Dana

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

There was no doubt in our minds when we hired Daniel et Daniel that you would bring our wedding to another level, but when we recieved phone call after phone call a week after our wedding comenting on how wonderful the food, service and day was, it only confirmed it over and over again.

You folks are truly masters at what you do! You made Nick and I feel completely comfortable from our first phone call to you, right until the moment we said our good night to your staff.

Your courtous staff was excellent! Everyone of my guests at the wedding were impressed. One of my guests at the end of the night felt the need to thank each of them individually for a great job. You folks are the masters!

Thank you.

Dear Melinda,

I would like to thank you yet again for a fabulous luncheon reception on Friday, November 19, 2010.  I was overwhelmed with the positive feedback regarding our luncheon.  The food was both delicious and beautifully presented.  The entire team worked hard to make sure that everyone was well taken care of.  We simply had a wonderful time.  I would like to thank
Debbie, who was calm, graceful, organized and just wonderful to have around. I must say that your team always comes through with an excellent result.
Thank you for your professionalism, warmth and generous nature.  I can't tell you how much it means to have such a fantastic group to work with!
I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday season!  I look forward to working with you again.

All the best,

Dear Laura,

Thanks again for all the effort you put in to making a wonderful dinner at our wedding. The service was great and the food was delicious! We especially want to thank you for the care you took in providing a good meal to our allergy prone niece.

We really enjoyed working with you- your love of food is obvious!

Hi Melinda,

Adrian and I would like to thank you to you and the staff at Daniel and Daniel for all that you did to make our wedding such a special and memorable day.

When Adrian and I started brainstorming our must haves for the wedding and reception, the top thing on both of our lists was good food. You see, for lack of a better word, we’re both huge foodies and spend a lot of time in the kitchen or going out to try new restaurants. The food that D&D made exceeded our expectations and was truly delicious.
Plus you made one bride very happy with the pink lemonade – I had many glasses of it! So often the food is unmemorable at weddings or people complain about it; but I’m happy to share with you that this definitely was not the case with us! I can’t tell you how many people came up to us and told us how tasty the food was – and this includes people who are foodies and some very picky eaters. We had one guest – Adrian’s 2 year-old niece, who has a lot of food allergies and is very hesitant when it comes to trying new food – who loved the mashed potatoes; I think she ate a whole plateful of them! And people are still talking about the food three weeks after the wedding!

I also wanted to tell you about one of your staff/waiters (unfortunately I don’t remember her name). My sister-in-law Melanie was unable to partake in the cocktail hour on the second floor because she had to feed her newborn son. One of the wait staff, upon finding this out, made a point of going to get her some food so she wouldn’t miss out on the hors d’oeuvres. The waiter also made sure that Melanie had everything she needed in order to warm up my nephew’s bottle. Melanie was very grateful, as were Adrian and I upon hearing about it afterwards.  It is this attention and care that sets D&D apart from other caterers. I would highly recommend D&D to anyone that needed a caterer.
We would also like to thank you for stepping in at the last minute and making sure that everything turned out like we wanted it to. Thank you! The venue looked amazing and everything went like clock work on the day of.

Wishing you all the best,

Erin and Adrian

Dear Melinda:

On behalf of the Human Resources and Training team at Mackenzie Investments, I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you and your staff at Daniel et Daniel for serving up a delicious luncheon at our recent management forum meeting last week at the Design Exchange, Toronto.   A lot of thought and planning went into the tableware presentation and floral arrangements, and it was very well received.  However, the catering definitely exceeded our expectations – attendees raved about the soup and its creative presentation. The main course and dessert were also wonderful and all in all, the meal was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

Thank you again – we appreciated your efforts and hope to work with you again sometime in the near future!

Best Regards,

Dear Laura,

  Thank you oh so very much for making our wedding the most delicious, elegant event ever.  I cannot tell you how many people came up to me and Omar during the reception and commented on how amazing the food was.  Literally, from cocktail hour right through to the sliders/fries/grilled cheese/shrimp patties we had guests come up to us and say how delicious the food was.   The hors d'oevres danced in our mouths.  The beef was like butter, the pasta was rich and flavorful, the tomatoes were fresh, the mozzarella was authentic (remember, we are Italian!) and the desserts were just right.   Moreover, the service was attentive and professional. It was a pleasure working with you.  Thank you for making our night simply divine.

Regards,

Daniel et Daniel catered an anniversary party that we hosted at our home on Sat Sept 11.  I just wanted to write an say how wonderful the servers were.  They worked so hard to keep the food hot, and circulating.  They helped with drinks and cleaned up very thoroughly afterwards.  They were extremely pleasant and made the party so much more relaxing for us as the hosts.  All the guests commented on how smoothly things ran.  I just wanted you to know how impressed we were with your servers (the food was great too!)
 
Thanks

Susan & Derek

Hi Margaret,

We were absolutely thrilled with our wedding. We've had compliment after compliment on the food - it was incredible! The staff were so professional, accommodating and nice. They were especially kind to the women who had young children which meant so much to us. Thank you for setting up all the decor and candy table it was stunning. Especially the dinner tables - they were gorgeous! Everything was stunning and we were just so pleased to have worked with you.  It made us so relaxed to know everything was taken care of and let us have the best time! And special thanks for being so quick to jump in and try and find us a minister after our officiant was so late! I'm so glad we ended up having the ceremony we planned but it was nice to know there was kind of back-up plan in place!
Thanks so much Margaret. I will recommend D&D at every possible opportunity!

Laura,

Thanks so much again for EVERYTHING on Saturday, the food was nothing short of spectacular and again, I am so grateful for all of your unbelievable help + support before and throughout the whole event. Everyone was truly blown away  by the quality of the food and the perfection of how the whole evening was executed. You are simply the best, Laura Long...and someone I am proud to call a very valued colleague and friend.

Robin,

  I just wanted to drop you a note since I didn't get to see you Saturday night to thank you so much for all that you did to make Sherrill and Paul's day so special.   There were endless glowing comments from the guests on the hors d'oeuvres (particularly the mini-BLT's which, as you know, were Paul's pick); everyone loved them so we got off to a great start there.   And then the main event in the tent.  Such glorious food throughout the night. Everything was absolutely perfect; not only was the food beautiful and delicious, but the wait staff were tremendous. They always kept a watchful eye and were attentive to our every request.   Thanks too for accommodating my son who decided to stay for dinner after all which was a wonderful surprise for all of us.  It was as though our table had always been meant for 11 rather than 10; his setting was added absolutely seamlessly.   And needless to say, thanks for coming to our rescue when we were faced with the prospect of no caterer three weeks prior to the wedding. They say everything happens for a reason and in this case, I think it was so that we could get your wonderful service and food and gracious attention to detail. Thanks so much for everything (including moving tables and chairs - above and beyond the call of duty).   I definitely know whom I will recommend the next time someone needs a caterer (including me!).

Best regards,

Roxanne

Hi Meredith,
 
Just wanted to send you a quick line to tell you what an AMAZING JOB you and your staff did! Everyone came up to Ron and I to tell us how amazing and delicious the food was and how professional and friendly the staff was. The staff was so on the ball and I was so impressed with everything! Quite a few of our guests asked me who the catering company was because they wanted to tell some family members who may be getting married in the future to use you guys as well. Everything was just so beautiful and perfect. Thank you so much for all the lovely details you added to make my wedding so memorable. Everyone just couldn't believe how awesome the food was! The mini grill cheeses were a HUGE hit! I'm soooo glad you were a part of my special day and that I went with Daniel et Daniel. Everything was just soooo perfect!
 
Sending u a big tight hug,
Colleen

Jake,

Well when you said I was getting the A-team you weren't kidding. Yesterday was absolutely fabulous and the phone has been ringing off the hook today with friends singing our praises. The food was delicious, the service gracious and even the weatherman cooperated. Thank you so much for all your attention to detail and please pass on my compliments (again) to the crew.
We would not dream of using any other caterer going forward and know that I have a number of friends who asked who we used. I wish we could do it all again although what I really need now is a nap!


Until next time.

Jake,

I would like to thank you for your assistance in planning my event.  It went remarkably well.   The food was scrumptious.  A friend of mine recently returned from Paris just about fainted in delight at the macaroons.  Everyone was very impressed, with few left overs.

The staff arrived in good time, and was extremely gracious and efficient.  They are a real credit to Daniel et Daniel.  They worked very hard the entire time they were there, and made the evening easy.

Thanks again

Hi Melinda,

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you and the kitchen, wait, and bar staff who helped make our party and book launch the successes they were last Thursday.

We've had nothing but positive feedback about the catering. People found the food delicious, and (thanks to you) it seemed the perfect amount -- no wastage, no shortage. The staff were professional, approachable, and responsive. Did I mention the food was delicious? 
I I will be happy to freely recommend Daniel et Daniel if anyone I know needs excellent catering services.

Again: thank you.

Dear Meredith

I would like to thank you for your hard work on the Canadian Stage Theatre Ball, ART.

Daniel et Daniel provided a premium experience through and through not only for the guests, but also for the Canadian Stage staff working on the event for so many months. The food was absolutly delicious, and the creative touches truly tailored the menu to our theme & company. The guests could not stop talking about the quality of the food and we are absolutely thrilled with the results!

Meredith, you were professional and informative during the entire process, and in addition to this you kept a calm disposition in the midst of all the action throughout the evening. Without all your hard work, the night would not have been the sucess it was. From this incredible event we have surpasses our Theatre Ball fundraising goal, allowing us to create the best contemporary theatre for all our audiences this season. You were a large force in reaching this goal, and for that, we truly thank you.

Sincerely.

The dinner was lovely and when the Chef  told me he was the chef at your wedding, I knew we were in good hands!! The staff were extremely accommodating and efficient. They make a great team

 

All of our guests raved about the quality of the meal, from appetizers to dessert, and I was able to relax, knowing that all details were being attended to.

 

You were an absolute pleasure to work with Robin and just so you know, I am now spoiled for all future dinner parties........

 

Thanks so very much.

Laura,

I want to thank you for everything that you did to make our Friday night Partner dinner such a huge success.  The evening went so smoothly and I have been swamped with notes of thanks from our partners.  They loved the venue, the set up, the food and all the touches that were distinctly yours throughout the space.

Your staff were terrific (you are right, they are the A team), the food was delicious and beautiful and your choices with linens, florals candles and design made the room one of the most beautiful I have ever seen.

I also want to thank you for your suggestion of your florist who made the evening perfect.  Working with you has been a dream and I cannot wait until we do another event together.  While they aren’t all this style, and this budget, I am sure we can do lots of fun stuff.

Thanks again for your help on this magnificent event.

Dear Laura:

On behalf of the 2010 Gala Steering Committee, and on behalf of the RCI Council of Governors, I would like to extend our appreciation to the excellent catering done by Daniel et Daniel at our 5th Gala Dinner on April 22, 2010. I know that you made a great effort to ensure that our food selections at the reception and the dinner were within our budget, but still creative and delicious, and set the mood of a true "gala".

I would also like to compliment the quality and professionalism of your servers, for whom no request seemed to be too much-every time a guest asked for something, the answer was "no problem", or "yes, right away".

Thank you again,

Helle

Warm regards,

Hi Meredith!


I just wanted to thank you for everything you did to make my wedding sooo wonderful.  Not only was the food incredible, but you made it very easy for me throughout the entire process. 
We have had amazing reviews about the food at our wedding, and I think our guests were pleasantly surprised with the food station idea.  I know you exceeded all of Darrin's and my expectations!
Wishing you all the best in your future and maybe we will work together again sometime ... I know I will be recommending Daniel et Daniel to anyone in need of a caterer!

Sincerely,


Lindsay

Hi Robin,

We had a great time Saturday night!  Everything was perfect from start to finish, and everyone had a fun time.  The food was amazing and the servers were working the crowd!  The beef tenderloin was perfection.

The chefs were really ready for us, and even had two vegetarian plates for two last minute guest preferences.  I couldn’t have asked for better service or planning!

BTW I’m still enjoying the chocolate mousse cake!

Thank you so much,

Andy.

Dear Ms. Collin;

  I hope that you will pass along my highest compliments to your chef(s) and catering staff who prepared and served such a stunning buffet for Spirit of Toronto.  With the emphasis on the whisky, much of it otherwise inaccessible to many of the attendees, it is very difficult for food choices to compete.  In the last two years in particular, although I certainly remember the whiskies I sampled, I find that it is the food that your team has prepared which is the subject of conversation for weeks on end.  I recall my partner saying this year, "I hope they bring back those Yorkshire pudding and roast beef cups..." and you most certainly did not disappoint.  The pears (poached?) prepared with Goldschlager and served with the warmed brie in phyllo pastry were absolutely brilliant, and the highlight of a wonderful sampling of food to compliment the whiskies.  My one regret is that I live in London, Ontario and will have to wait until next year to enjoy your food again.  I will definitely recommend you to my friends who live in Toronto and those who are planning an event in Toronto.

I hope we will see you again next year.  Many thanks for making our experience at Spirit of Toronto so wonderful, year after year.

Best,

Wendy

Dear Laura,

That lamb absolutely melted in my mouth! It was to die for.

The catering of the RCI Gala Dinner held at MaRS on Thursday April 22nd was exceptional. When we asked you to create an elegant “Comfort Food” menu on a limited budget, I was worried that we would sacrifice something. But boy was I wrong. As I watched the service staff collect plates from all three courses, they had been scraped clean. And as the feedback comes in the common theme is how tremendous the food was.

Laura, I would like to personally extend my heartfelt thanks for all of the work that you did on this year’s RCI Gala Dinner. I know that Daniel et Daniel have done this event for several years for very little money and the RCI is very appreciative of your support. Despite the lack of remuneration for the Dinner though you worked tirelessly to create the perfect menu, help find ways to keep our budget in line and come up with elegant touches to make the event even better. And for that you will have the RCI’s and my undying support.

On behalf of WaterCooler, and my client RCI I would like to thank you and your entire team for making our event such a success. I look forward to working with you all again in the very near future.

Cheers

Anne

Dear Mr. Day,

I am writing to tell you how delighted I was with the food, service and presentation for my cocktail reception in December.

This is the third time I have used Daniel et Daniel and everything was impeccable as always. It is wonderful to have peace of mind when planning a party or other event. To know that the food will be at your door at the specified time, that the presentation will be beautiful and the food will be delicious. I want to mention Rodrigo, who did such a great job and made me feel very confident about everything.

Thank you very much. I would not hesitate in recommending you to anyone looking for catering services for any type of event in the future.

With appreciation,

The food was delicious, the service was impeccable and it was an overall unbelievably enjoyable experience. Everything was perfect and how I wanted it to be. The server was fantastic and wouldn't let me lift a finger. The hors d'oeuvres were excellant and the presentation was lovely. I had so many great compliments about the food. If we everhave another event like this again I will be recommending you and Daniel et Daniel to all my family.

All the best,

Dear Laura,

Boy, do you ever know your food!

Laura, Thanks for working with me to produce a stellar event last Wednesday night.  I can't tell you how many people raved about the food at the event and the response since then has been incredible.

From the begining of our planning stages through budget revisions to the tasting and finally, execution, you have gone out of your way to accommodate us and make our event the best possible. I thought that it would be a challange to create a cocktail menu that showcased Ontario to the guests, was delicious and satisfying, but somehow you managed. You even came up with nifty and novel items like the "Maple Taffy on Show" which was a highlight! While there were a myriad of details and personalities that needed attention, you ensured that they were all looked after. Your chefs were also excellent and charming on site, so please extend my sincerest thanks to them with special mention of Chef Vel, who patiently packed up care packages for me and our clients to take home.

I would like to thank you and your entire team for making our event such a success. I look forward to working with you all again in the very near future.

Cheers

Dear Mr Day:

This weekend your company under the direction of Jake Curl catered a three day event at our home. There was a Friday evening barbeque in the garden, a lunch before the wedding, a reception at the wedding on Saturday and a brunch on Sunday in the gareden. In the middle of the wedding ceremony there was a tremendous downpour of rain and thunder and all of the guests had to be moved from the lawn to the tent. During all the events the entire staff was incredible, discrete and more than helpful and kind. The decor was beautiful and the food was outstanding.

I want to comend to you your wait staff who was unbelievable and your Chef's, everything was delicious and beautifully presented.

Most of all I want to write to you about Jake Curl. You have a very special employee in this man. We have been working on this event since March. Jake has been enthusiatic and joyful and helpful throughout. He is unfailing in his good cheer and made us feel that the event was special for him also. I felt he was a friend by the end and I will miss our communications. I think he has a great future in this industry and commend him highly to you.

Dear Laura,


Almost a month has gone by since the Dean/Robinson wedding and I have not had an opportunity to thank you for all the amazing energy that was put into that special day. My Husband and I believe that our daughter's wedding was the BEST wedding that we've ever attended, and so much of that success is due to your own efforts and those of the staff of Daniel et Daniel.


From our first telephone conversation, to our first meeting to the wedding day itself, you offered options and ideas that made our short preparation time seem quite workable and afordable. The entire Daniel et Daniel staff was wonderful, and our guests commented on the friendless and professionalism of the wait staff. The Menu was superb! From the first hors d'oeuvres to the last pastries of the evening everyone loved the food.


I could go on and on, you were great, the food was great and the staff was great, the day was great. On behalf of everyone, many, many thanks.

We recieved so many complimentson the meal that I began to accept the accolades as if I had been the chef!

The desert table was a huge hit, however it was the oyster bar that stole the show.

The hall looked beautiful and the servers were charming and efficient. a wonderful time was had by all.

Thank you Margaret for your food suggestions, your patience with my many questions, and for using a lovely soothing voice when I was feeling jittery. Joe and I enjoyed the party as much as our guests, and that is exactly how it should be.

Dear Daniel and Daniel

We would like to acknowledge the outstanding contribution of

your chef Karen O'Connor and your event planner Laura Long

and convey our deepest gratitude and appreciation of these

two wonderful staff members, both of whom donated their

time and talents for our charity golf tournament on September

18th.

Their enthusiasm and professionalism was not dampened by

the challenges the weather presented and we are truly

appreciative of their hard work and efforts. From the positive

feedback received from our participants, it is clear that Karen

and Laura represented "Daniel et Daniel" in a first class manner

of which you can be proud. They certainly "wet the appetites"

of many business leaders in Canada, leaving a memorable

culinary experience for all our guests. Their participation was

instrumental to the success of this event.

It was an incredible day for the golfers, but an even greater

day for autism.Through this event, $250,000 was raised for

organizations across Canada serving individuals with autism,

of which every dollar raised goes to specific projects that will

enhance the life of someone touched by autism.

Despite the inclement weather, the sun was shining "a la table

de Daniel et Daniel". it is the generosity and participation of individuals such as Karen and Laura that enabled us to reach

our goal. Thank you for enabling them to be a part of this very

special initiative and your support of Unity for Autism.

When there is unity, there is always victory!

Laura,

I wanted to express our thanks for the excellent service we

enjoyed at my son's wedding. The planning with you went

very well and the result was exceptional.

Your kitchen deserves a pat on the back for the quality of the

food, but my greatest admiration is for the staff who served us

with the greatest efficiency and courtesy possible.

I am almost sorry that I am running out of children to marry off

as I would like to taste your tenderloin again....

Regards and thanks to all who had a part in this affair.

my budget, and I have never felt that my business is not

important, even though it's a small event.

I Have spoken with other caterers during this process and

have not recieved the same level of service...so thank you!

I know I have made the right choice.

Dear Mr. Clairet

An internet search and memories of an ornate and delicious cake from some years ago led me to your website.  Ken was my contact from start to finish.  He is an outstanding asset to your organization and the cake itself was stunning.  A simple slab cake was transformed into a suitcase that looked like it could be carried on the plane!  The detailed flags, map and symbols were the talk of the party until the guests tasted the cake.  Layers of delicious, fluffy, perfectly-sweetened chocolate mousse cake were quickly devoured.

Sincerely,
Kate

I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you, Stephen and your whole team, for doing such a wonderful job of everything on Saturday.  I'm sure that the rain made things much more difficult for you.  I really appreciate all of the extra effort of everybody to make the party a success despite the weather. I received many compliments on the food, and gave Daniel et Daniel full credit.  I can't thank you enough for making the evening such a success.  Please pass my thank-yous on to Stephen and the rest of the team, who were so professional and worked so hard.  We couldn't have been happier with the service that was provided throughout the evening.


Thanks so very much,

Dear Russell:

On behalf of The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery's staff, Board of Directors and Committee members, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation for your magnificent support of our seventh annual Power Ball fundraising event.

Power Ball 7 set Toronto's party scene on fire, with the "Group of Seven Deadly Sins" as inspiration for an incredible night of revelry, soaked up by hundreds of enthusiastic partygoers.  This year's bash doubled the fun by combining the inaugural Power Ball Gala Dinner and the Power Ball Party into one mega bash, raising an unprecedented $250, 000 net!  All proceeds will be used to fund The Power Plant's forthcoming exhibitions, publications and educational programs for the community.

We are thrilled to have Daniel et Daniel as the exclusive caterer of Power Ball 7, and equally delighted to have the opportunity to work with you as a creative partner in this culinary experience.  This year Daniel et Daniel masterminded an elegant presentation of haute comfort food that whet the appetites of Gala Dinner patrons and Party guests alike.  Gourmands indulged in an exquisite fare of meticulously crafted dishes and hors d'oeuvres, and the result was an unforgettable gastronomic experience.  We very much hope that you will consider supporting this event once again next year.

Many thanks to you and your remarkable staff for providing the steadfast support needed to make our fundraising efforts a resounding success!

Best regards,
Evan, Suzanne & Shabin

Dear Michele:

On behalf of my sister, Dian and myself, I'd like to take a few moments to express my sincerest gratitude to yourself and your staff for such an outstanding job at our parent's 40th Wedding Anniversary dinner. Our parents and guests were positively thrilled and loved every minute of the evening. Dian and I scored brownie points for life! We received glowing comments on the food, the service and presentation, and I've already recommended D et D to two guests, along with two others who have even visited the food shop for their own Lemon Chiffon cakes.

The success of the evening was due in no small part to the professionalism and attention to detail that you and your staff exhibited. I truly appreciated the fact that you were able to work within my busy schedule in the weeks leading up to this event, to ensure that it would be a success. I also wanted to thank Daniela and the team of wait staff who were so attentive, enthusiastic and fun. I believe that Scott held my sister's one-year-old son so that she could be in the pictures. They definitely went beyond the call of duty.

Thank you again, it was great to meet and work with you.

Michele:

I am writing to provide a long overdue testimonial from the surprise birthday party you catered this past March.

From start to finish, Daniel et Daniel handled every detail of our surprise birthday party with the utmost professionalism.  Michele was great to deal with - she took care of everything.  All I had to do was keep the surprise.  The food was, by all reviews, excellent.  The attention ot detail from the staff was incomparable.  What was truly special though, was the fact that I requested French speaking staff because my children speak French.  Micheline was wonderful - my children loved the fact that they could converse with her.  We always use Daniel et Daniel whether we order cakes for birthdays or have catered parties - this is a habit we will not break!

Hello Page,

First let me say that both Rob and I were delighted with our event on Saturday.  You and your staff are to be commended.  The food was superb and the service exactly what we expected.  Steven was nothing but extraordinary.  We have absolutely rave comments from our friends and family.  Thank you for helping make our wedding a truly memorable event.


Once again, thanks from both of us for your guidance and assistance.

Dear Melinda ,

Just a quick note to tell you how pleased we were with Daniel et Daniel services at our event at the Design Exchange in May 2005.  The food was terrific, all of the arrangements came off beautifully and absolutely nothing went wrong.  We were especially pleased with the level of service from your staff, Larry in particular. Every little detail was well attended to with Larry in charge and I felt like everything was completely under control.  As well, your own expertise made for a very successful day.


Best regards,

Just got back from Hamilton, first thing I asked was how did it go last night - the Executive Director said "Perfect - Perfect - Perfect", he said not only was the meeting a perfect success, but the venue was perfect, the food was superb, the service exceptional, and overall just the perfect thing for our US dignitary and the Deputy MInisterof Health.  Thank you just doesn't seem enough, would you please pass on my sincere thank you to everyone involved and invoice me directly and the invoice will be paid 5 minutes after I receive it.

Dear Melinda,

I want to express my sincere thanks for the wonderful food and service provided by Daniel et Daniel for Osler at the Carlu.  You really took the Cotton Club theme to heart and came up with an original, interesting and delicious menu for the event.  It has truly been a pleasure working with you on this and last year's events.  You were great at anticipating our needs and responding to our requests and ideas.  The attention to detail was excellent.  Together we made a great team!

Dear Mr. Megly and Mr. Clairet ,

I am writing to thank you both for employing Shirley Kalitsis as an Event Coordinator.  On Sunday May 15th, she put together a fabulous brunch in our backyard.  From the raising of the tent through the arrival of the chairs and tables, and the very perosnable waitstaff, and of course the incredible foor, everything ran like clockwork.  We were able to spend time with our friends and not worry about a thing.

There is no question that we will recommend Daniel et Daniel, and in particular Shirley Kalitsis to anyone planning an event in the future.

Hi Daniel:

II recently used your services as recommended by the Turner & Porter Funeral Services, Butler Chapel and was pleasantly surprised by the food and the presentation that was while simple, very elegant. Whoever heard of good refreshments at a funeral – in fact I had numerous compliments and would not hesitate to use your services or recommend you to anyone.

Once again thank you, it was one less thing to worry about.

Hi Page,

Well, as of the conclusion of last night, they were EXTREMELY happy…to the point of giving me hugs…I take that as a positive sign! They were totally impressed and thrilled with your service staff, and want to be sure that the gratuity will reach them! They really enjoyed the food. They were also thrilled with the décor…you really pulled it off, and I thank you.

So that was my client’s opinion…they may get some feedback from the group in attendance last night, and if I hear anything I will let you know.

Thanks again, it was a pleasure to meet you and to work with you…I could not have done this without you.

Best,

Dear Melinda,

Our wedding day was beautiful, fun, and stress-free; much of this was thanks to you and your staff. Gene and I truly did not have to worry about a thing. Daniel et Daniel service really impressed us, and we rave about you to all of our friends and family.

Thank you for being a great resource and support in the months

leading up to our wedding. Your suggestions and guidance through this process have been invaluable, and I truly enjoyed working with you.

Our guests really enjoyed themselves, and Gene and I have received many compliments on the service, food, and overall set up of the day. Daniel et Daniel’s attention to detail has truly made our day magical.

Dear Shirley,

Thank you very much indeed for catering tow splendid events for me! In each case were very lucky with the weather and were able to have everything not only in the house but in the

garden!

The guests all commented on how delicious the fusilli pasta was at the first event, and the spinach and mushroom crepe last night.

Everything worked out absolutely splendidly.

Thank you very much indeed.

I look forward to our next event!

All the best.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Rick,

Everything was just perfect and we were so happy with the way everything turned out. The food was amazing, the décor was beautiful and the staff were absolutely fantastic.
Extra special thanks to whoever put up the bows on the aisle chairs when the friend in charge of that ran late. Should we ever need an event catered in the future we will definitely call you. The whole experience was fun and completely painless!

Thanks for everything Rick,

Dear Rick,

What can we say? We hold ourselves up to such high standards that finding a catering partner that meets and exceeds our notion of ”delivering” can sometimes be a challenge. Not so with Rick Rowe and his team at Daniel et Daniel.

May's back-to-back Toronto Zoo events more than proved your professionalism and passion for perfection. The staff party was such a success, thanks in large part to your contribution (and yes, you were right people cannot get enough of those mini-burgers!) And in spite of the rain for the VIP party the following day, you and your team made our event shine!

Many thanks Rick Rowe. We look forward to the next opportunity to work with you.

Best regards,

Dear Paul,

The Architectural Digest reception at Clive Christian Toronto catered by Daniel et Daniel was a grand success and my compliments to you and all involved with this presentation!

From the day that I called you to the conclusion of this reception, your hands-on attention to our first Architectural Digest event with Daniel et Daniel was outstanding. Through your professionalism, plus an expert service team this event proved smooth-running and memorable. Also, the culinary offerings at this reception offered were beautifully presented as well as enjoyed by all who attended.

I will whole-heartedly recommend Daniel et Daniel to my special event colleagues who will be planning parties, events and meetings in Canada, as well it will be my pleasure to contact you again to present another Architectural Digest reception.

All best and good wishes,

Hi Rick,

Kirsten and I want to thank you again for the excellent and most professional job you did for our wedding. Not only did you meet all our expectations, all the guests were truly impressed.

“Best catered meal I’ve ever had” was one of the comments that was said. Kudos!! We hope to have the opportunity to make use of your services in the future.

…you are a true professional. With a few disappointments, with other caterers, it is refreshing to find someone that cares about the details and perfecting them to suit the varied tastes of your clients.

All the Best,

Eddie and Kirsten

Dear Melinda,
I do have to say that I have been to two events recently where the food was less than expected and I realized just how well we really do this kind of thing, with the amazing help of you and D & D. The meal is such an important part of the experience - regardless of what else is happening - and really is something people notice - big time.

All to say THANKS for the past - look forward to working with you again - and you know that D & D has a true fan in me - and our guests!

Dear Mr. Day,

I am writing to express my appreciation for the excellent service recently provided to me, by your employee, Ms. Nicky Cottee.

Tasked with the unfamiliar responsibility of organizing a tea party to celebrate the one hundredth birthday of a neighbor, I confess I was somewhat at sea. Ms. Cottee’s assistance was invaluable; she was unfailingly helpful, pleasant and competent. Her ideas and suggestions were terrific and she worked well within our budget.

While this was a very big deal for me, I am well aware that for Daniel et Daniel, this event was very small scale. Never once did I feel that my needs were of any less importance than a large corporate event.

Sincerely,

Barbara J Lyske

Thanks again,

Hi Page:
I wanted to give you some feedback on the dinner- we were extremely happy with the food and the service and would efinitely use Daniel et Daniel again. Everything arrived as and when promised. The Headwaiter- Alex – did an exceptional job. She really made the evening with her hard work, professionalism, and friendly demeanor. We would definitely want her on the team for any future job.

My wife really liked the party, and everyone had a great time. Your menu suggestions were a hit!

Shirley,
Just a personal note of thanks to you (& your colleagues at Daniel et Daniel) for helping to create a memorable evening for Linda Sagar’s birthday party on Dec. 27th.

I expected the food to be marvelous- your reputation was why I recommended you in the first place- however, the sheer efficiency and professionalism of your staff & the presentation of the food was superb. Everyone, from out of town guests to CTV colleagues, commented on it.

I will continue to recommend Daniel et Daniel at every opportunity. Meanwhile, Linda loved the celebration.
