Loïc Gourmet

OUR STORY - REVIEWS

'Dear Chef David, what an outstanding service you provided at my daughter's wedding March 26th. The selection and quality of the food was superb. Your timing and attention to detail is impeccable. I can't thank you enough for all you did to make the evening so enjoyable and memorable. On behalf of our entire family, we wish you success with you wonderful business. I hope an opportunity arises when we can work with you again' - Mother of the Bride

'Loïc Gourmet shares the same passion for food that both James and I do. From the time we first met Dave Kokai, we were impressed not only by his professionalism but also by his focus on the highest quality of ingredients presented in a contemporary and simple manner. Dave handled the logistics of a home wedding amazingly and delivered what was most important to us on our day - beautiful & delicious food for once at a wedding! Guests raved about the food and loved the food stations! Antipasti, gnocchi, roast tenderloin and an abundance of hot appetizers and late night yummy snacks! Who doesn't want gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches after some serious dancing! We would not hesitate to recommend Loïc Gourmet to anyone' - Jen Warden & James Ehrensperger

'Loïc does things differently. Not only does the French-inspired fare cost less than half what it would in a chi-chi bistro, but almost everything comes partially cooked. Then you finish to perfection whatever needs to be finished to perfection. Why, they'll even sell you candles... A staggeringly rich cream of cauliflower soup laced with truffle oil and lemony crème fraîche becomes transcendent after a quick nuke in the microwave... And after only four minutes under the broiler, Loïc's Croque Monsieur with Black Forest ham, Emmental and creamy béchamel becomes the grilled cheese sandwich of dreams... Even a squash and apple risotto with baby spinach and sage is perfect after five minutes of manic stirring on the Test Kitchen's dilapidated stovetop, no mean feat that.' - Now Magazine

'My office got lunch there for some clients a few days ago. Every items was really tasty. There were 2 lactose intolerant, so most of the sandwiches didn't have cheese and they were still divine! I have been meaning to try one of their roasted chickens - I'm quite sure I won't be disappointed. Lunch for 5 people was about $100, but there was enough leftover to feed 2 or 3 more people. Great value for the quality.' - Chowhound

'Although charming, Loïc's Riverside digs aren't what you'd expect when looking for a wedding caterer. Don't be fooled by its deli appearance; the magic happens behind the scenes. Loïc's bread-and-butter is its take-out business - freshly prepared gourmet on-the-go - but they can also cater events with up to 150 guests.' - Best Green Wedding Services In Toronto, Blog T.O.

'Loïc Gourmet does a bang up job of feeding many lucky agencies and clients - some of whom are so satiated they sleep through the afternoon, facilitating superquick on-set approvals.' - Heather Morton - Art Buyer
