Arizona Event Catering welcomes it's newest addition to the team, chef Benjamin Romine. Benjamin brings a whole new level of skill sets to our line up not only in his passion for the culinary arts, but in his degree in culinary arts, experience in a gourmet French kitchen and executive position in an up scale Italian cuisine as well. Oh, did we forget to mention his experience as a sous chef for an up scale Mexican cuisine?

About the owner:

Owner/operator and executive chef Christopher has been blessed with over twenty years of restaurant and catering experience. Beginning with his families Italian restaurants as a prep worker and dishwasher he worked his way into serving, bartending and management. During his four years at ASU he ventured into corporate restaurants and bars serving, bartending and managing with the purpose of a structured environment. Eventually working with bartending services and caterers he found a love for the event business. This well rounded experience coupled with his families successful recipes in the Italian cuisine has helped Arizona Event Catering obtain a reputation for serving great Italian cuisine at hundreds of weddings, birthday parties, public events and more.

Why a new chef?

While Chef Chris brings experience in the wedding and catering business which feels more like a professional and organized restaurant operation brought to your special event, Chef Ben brings a whole new level of culinary skill sets, quality control and regional flavors to our menu we wouldn't have without him. Not to mention the fact that he's an all around great guy and pleasure to work with.

"Ben was the catalyst in turning something good, into something great. I thought I could pull some stuff off and wow some people and have done so on many occasions....but he wows me constantly. I could not be happier with working with Ben in so many ways."  -Christopher Fisher


Chef Ben has been working with us for about six months now and we could not be more excited for the up coming season to see just what else he has in store for our guests. It's exciting to say the least!
