Deity is excited to be partnering with Chef James, bringing people together in celebration over food and drink.
Chef James Neal has worked in some of the most famous kitchens in New York City, and he's bringing that expertise to your wedding or event.
While growing up in Charleston, South Carolina. Chef James learned his purpose in life is to bring people together through food. “Some of life’s most intimate moments are experienced with friends, families and strangers around a table sharing food.”
It's this passion that led Chef James to New York City's world famous and diverse food scene. Over the past decade and a half he has learned from the city's most acclaimed Chefs such as John Fraser at the Edition Hotel, Dan Barber at the Michelin rated Blue Hill, and David Bouley at Bouley.
