In 2009 Corks + Forks Catering began as Cordon Bleu Catering when Certified Master Chef Michael “Cheffee” Ober & Sommelier Melanie Robertson-Ober brought their talents together to provide private chef & catering services in the Palm Beach area. They met sailing the world on the private mega yacht, Silver Cloud, owned by Alex Dreyfoos where Michael was working as Head Chef, & Melanie as the Chief Stewardess. Their mutual love of food & wine soon blossomed into romance. On return to Palm Beach they decided to combine Michael’s extraordinary talent & credentials as a Master Chef with Melanie’s love of wine & ability to create delicious & surprising wine pairings with cuisines from throughout the world.This is catering for true "foodies".
