“Extraordinary in every way. I’m so happy to have shared this with friends.”

AN UNFORGETTABLE CHEF’S TABLE

“I didn’t know food could taste this good. It’s a meal like none other.”

NOW BOOKING A UNIQUE PRIVATE EVENT WHERE FOOD MEETS STORY

Here’s a little-known fact: John Clifford, President and Pastor of Greenhouse Project, has led a 20-year culinary career at some of the best Philly restaurants specializing in classical French techniques with imaginative style and flavor profiles. He has helped establish local programs that train up men in recovery with cooking and leadership skills, and served thousands of homeless free gourmet meals with restaurant-level service. After hosting several private tasting dinners at his own home as a way to connect with friends and Greenhouse Project supporters, the idea became clear to offer a truly special experience for those ready to partner with the ministry.

Our goal is to offer the very best culinary experience possible, while sharing the story of Greenhouse Project to raise the finances needed to impact our community. We want our donors to hear, taste and see how we are making an impact in Chester.

“We enjoyed a 9 course meal with friends watching each intricate dish being made, all while learning the Greenhouse story. It’s incredible.”

WHAT TO KNOW

The Serre Chef's Table is a private event fundraiser designed to serve up to six guests. Guests enjoy a nine course tasting menu where each dish is a bite or two. It is hosted each month based on the scheduled dates posted, booked at least 4-6 weeks in advance. Guests can expect a 2 1/2 hour experience and are encouraged to arrive hungry as the gastronomic experience is carefully curated.

donations

All Greenhouse Project programs and outreach projects are donor supported. While there is no specific financial ask of guests, the cost to Greenhouse for hosting Serre is $125 per person. After hosting several meals to perfect the experience, we found that couples would consistently donate between $500-2,500+ to support our mission. It’s a great way to combine one of the best dining out experiences with a direct contribution to a local community in need. Come see and hear the impact you are making while partnering with us over a meal you’ll never forget!

ALLERGIES

We do our best to accommodate mild allergies but cannot guarantee a nut, dairy, gluten or allergen-free environment given the complexity of our menu. Please review the sample menu and let us know of any allergies. We are able to swap proteins or accommodate if we know in advance.

parking

We live in Chester with street parking only. We advise against leaving any valuables in your car and cannot be help responsible for any lost or stolen items.

booking

With this complexity of the meal, the Serre experience is designed to serve six guests. We ask when booking that you invite friends or family that support our mission. If you need help filling the amount of guests or need to request special arrangements, please let us know.
