Customer Testimonials

Sara and Kevin, thank you very much for the wonderful food you prepared for us. Everyone raved about your Bombay shrimp and charcuterie. As for dinner the chicken was succulent and we loved the hash. The crowning jewel was the gateaux...wow was it delicious. It was so good of you to help us out on short notice. We loved seeing you again and will be back soon.
All the best,
Sue and Tim


I was just on your website and thought that I should write a testimonial : ) I don’t think my husband could have picked a nicer birthday present than to invite friends and family over to our house for a Harmony Farm-catered dinner! Thanks for making it such a special evening. It was is the best birthday present EVER. I really should write one for the wedding, even though it was a few years ago. I’ll work on something... Diane : )

Mother's Day
Thank you Sara. Our family loved brunch. It was awesome. Your setup is sweet, and I hope that business goes really well. I know that we'll be recommending it! pee ess the daffodils were such a nice touch


Sara,
I wanted to do this sooner but Kyle and I have just gotten back from our honeymoon. I cannot begin to thank you for the myriad ways in which you contributed to making our day as perfect as it was. You were so accommodating with all our changes in numbers and timing and rolled with all of it with the utmost professionalism. When we discovered that the rental place had not supplied us with sufficient linens for all of our tables, my uncle's first suggestion was to call you; sure enough you came through and not only provided the necessary items but made the entire serving area truly magnificent - it was certainly no run of the mill buffet table and just added to the beauty of our event. The wait staff that you selected were all friendly and professional and not only did a superb job but seemed genuinely happy for Kyle and I. Perhaps most importantly the food was unparalleled. To be perfectly honest I was so caught up in everything that was going on that I took little notice of what I was eating and by the time I got to mine, I was picking at cold food - it was still great! I can't believe how many of our guests have raved about the food being a highlight of our wedding. Several have reported that it was the nicest steak that they ever had. We are so grateful for all you did. The meal was fantastic and your attention to detail did not go unnoticed! I would not hesitate to use you again nor recommend you with the highest commendation. Appreciatively,


Hi Sarah and Kevin,
It was an absolute pleasure gabbing and getting a chance to sample some of your culinary wizardry. You've got a great thing going and I have no doubt it's going to catch like wild fire! Sarah, as promised, I'm sending you the information for that butcher in Norwood who has a huge selection of sausages. His info is in the editorial attached. Looking forward to catching one of your upcoming bistro nights....
Keep busy.
Cheers,


We just returned from a holiday in Haliburton where I made the most wonderful culinary discovery. There is a couple, Sara Bornstein and Kevin Brandt (formerly chef at Xacutti) who have a farm near Kinmount where they produce the most wonderful fresh and frozen meals, desserts, and both savory and sweet preserves. Rob and I are crazy about their food. I hate potato salad yet I was eating theirs for breakfast. I don't really like pie yet I couldn't get enough of theirs.
 
At any rate, I wanted to put you both in touch with each other because:
 
1) they sell cheese at the local farmers market and also their farm and perhaps there is a way around the travel logistics and they might be able to sell some of your cheeses
 
2) you might want to sell some of their produce. If you are still opening the cheese shop in Yorkville their frozen dishes and/or preserves would be perfect.
 
 
What's in it for me...i'm suffering from Harmony Farm withdrawal and would like to be able to purchase it in TO.
 
So, Kevin meet Cole and Cole meet Kevin.  I hope there's a mutually beneficial future together.  Keep me posted,

Hi Sara & Kevin

Just wanted to let you know that the meal Friday night was wonderful.  We all thoroughly enjoyed it and had a wonderful evening because of it.  Your instructions were great, everything came together as if you were here and sat it in front of us yourselves.  All 4 courses were to die for and the flavours complimented each other extremely well.  I also feel it was an excellent price for what we got – we even had some leftovers and were glad we were at home and could change into our PJ’s before we had dessert.  I will certainly consider doing an evening like this again and I will recommend it to all of our friends. 

Thanks for making the occasion a memorable evening.


Hi Sara and Kevin
 
My husband Matt and I stopped in at your place for the first time yesterday. We were in desperate need of something appetizing to serve at a rather last minute arrangement for dinner with my mother- in - law. We bought your smoked chicken pies, squash and maple soup, red pepper dip and flax crackers. What a treat! I was the best meal we had had in some time! Incredibly fresh tasting, flavourful and unique. It was not just "pot pie" but  "smoked" chicken pie - what a fantastic flavour! Similarly, the soup and dip were very fresh tasting and full of flavour too! Thank you so much. We will make a point of coming home from the cottage your way more often. We think your company is fantastic and will send as much business to you as possible.
Thanks again!
