About Flavor
We offer a creative and diverse vision for each and every event we cater.
Just three years ago, owner Jason Crockarell opened Flavor Catering & Special Occasions using a borrowed kitchen and a staff of one. Today, Flavor has found a home of its own in the Carothers Building in Franklin, TN, where Jason runs the Carothers Café in addition to serving as co-owner of Bishop's Meat & Three. His quick rise to success can be attributed to his depth of experience as a chef and his ability to create classic, authentic dishes with a twist.
Jason and his solid staff of chefs and servers have many years of experience in providing eatable entertainment. With each new event, their team works together to ensure that you will not regret using Flavor Catering over other ordinary providers. Flavor's experts work to provide a little extra zest with each menu item-and realize that sometimes it's the smallest thing that can make your event the most memorable.
Jason began his career in Nashville as an entertainment caterer for movies and other productions. He was asked to join the culinary staff at the historic Merchant's Restaurant as a line cook. Over the years he was promoted to Sous Chef and continued up the ranks until he became Corporate Chef. At that point, he left to assist Green Hills Grille in their expansion of three new restaurants.
It was at this point in his career, which involved high amounts of travel, that he decided to take his profession in a direction that would allow him to be home each evening with his beautiful wife and baby daughter. Thus, Flavor Catering was born.
"At Flavor, we offer a creative and diverse vision for each and every event we cater," says Jason. "We attract clients who are looking to take their event to a new level of originality and excitement. And that can mean an intimate dinner for six, an extravagant wedding for 600, or a corporate event for 1,600."
In the few short years they have been in business, Flavor has created meals with flair for clients including Musicians Hall of Fame, Baptist Hospital, Biomimetic, Ingram Books, Vanderbilt Medical Center, HealthSpring, HCA, Ford Motor Company, and Wachovia just to mention a few.
"Our chefs enjoy the challenges that come with custom-making menus for executive socials, intimate settings, and large group events," Jason enthuses. "We try our best to serve without limitations in providing the most colorful, flavorful and exceptional cuisine possible at each event. If a client wants to eat it, we'll find a way to serve it in the most tantalizing and cost-efficient way possible." It is this platform that sets Flavor above the rest. For they aim to not only please, but to make feasting dreams come true.
