A holiday gathering worth remembering

FAQ

Private holiday questions, answered.

Who can book a private holiday event?

Companies, families, friend groups, departments, schools, nonprofits, and community organizations can reserve a private holiday cooking or baking experience.

What holidays and seasonal gatherings can you accommodate?

Holiday parties, Friendsgiving, Christmas gatherings, New Year celebrations, employee appreciation events, family gatherings, and other seasonal occasions can all be considered.

Is our selected holiday experience guaranteed?

Your selection tells Eat Well ABQ what your group prefers. Chef Evangalene confirms the final format based on guest count, ages, season, ingredients, timing, equipment, dietary needs, venue, and event flow.

Is a meal included?

The final food experience depends on the selected format. Some options include a shared meal, while others emphasize tasting, baked goods, or take-home components. The exact deliverables are confirmed after checkout.

Where will the event be held?

Smaller gatherings may be hosted at Eat Well ABQ. Larger holiday events may be coordinated at a selected private event venue. The final location is confirmed after checkout based on guest count, format, availability, and logistics.

Can children participate?

Some holiday formats can accommodate mixed-age or family groups. Share the age range during booking so Chef Evangalene can confirm the safest and strongest experience.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Tell us about dietary and accessibility needs in the planning form. Eat Well ABQ reviews each request before confirming the menu and format. Not every restriction can be supported in every experience.

Is holiday decorating included?

Standard class setup is included. The Celebration Setup add-on provides a simple upgraded seasonal presentation, not full-service event decorating. Final colors and details are confirmed after checkout.

No. Checkout reserves the selected private package. The date, time, location, menu, and full event plan are confirmed directly with Eat Well ABQ afterward.

Can we request something custom?

Yes. Choose Custom Holiday Experience Request and describe the idea in your planning notes. Custom requests are Chef-approved and may require an adjusted quote when they materially change ingredients, labor, equipment, venue, or production.
