 Different & Delicious
​The food experience at your wedding 
should be as memorable as your special day

The Food

Since opening in 2013, Jonny Blonde has become one of Hamilton’s celebrated chefs. The city's burgeoning foodie culture has recognized his delicious food with dozens of awards - as a local chef, and for the catering business, food truck and take-out restaurant he operates with his partner, Layal.
Jonny starts with beautiful ingredients for his farm-to-table approach to cooking, which includes premium, ethically raised, antibiotic-free meat and a commitment to whole animal butchery.  
With passion and a style uniquely his own, Jonny mixes bold, rich flavours with delicious food combinations to create memorable menus for weddings and distinctive upscale events. Everything is made in house - from the sauces to the artisan bread.


​The Service

No kitchen? No problem! Our food truck can bring the food to you. We provide a variety of service styles - from formal plated dinners and cocktail-style parties with passed apps and food stations to buffet and family-style meals. And just as delicious and fun, we also offer late night food or snacks.
    
If you have something special in mind, talk to us. We’ll help you choose the perfect meal and experience to suit your special occasion, taste & budget. To discuss your ideas, enquire about a quote or reserve a date, contact Layal at gypsy@jonnyblonde.com or by phone at 905.921.4929
