W E A R E T H E C H E F & W I F E
We began The Everyday Chef and Wife back in 2012, rooted in one simple idea: to help people gather again around the dinner table. It started with Jason visiting clients' homes, preparing meals they could pop in the oven after a long day—giving families a moment of rest, comfort, and connection.
Over the years, that small beginning grew into something much larger. We expanded to cater weddings, private chef dinners, corporate events, and celebrations of all kinds—each one crafted with intention and care. At the heart of it all was the same standard we started with: to offer food that nourishes and experiences that last.
Today, The Everyday Chef & Wife serves as the parent company of everything we do—from private chef services and large-scale events to our café in Downtown Grand Rapids.

In 2021, our journey led us to open a full catering kitchen and café in Downtown Grand Rapids. We named it Partage—the French word for “share.” It’s a natural extension of the work we’ve always done through The Everyday Chef and Wife, but with a broader vision: to create a space where community can gather, meals can be shared, and our incredible team can shine.
Partage reflects everything we believe in—handmade, organic, local food, served with soul—but it also allows us to grow beyond the image of a husband-and-wife team doing it all. It gives room to celebrate our staff, who now help us bring this mission to life daily through the pop-up cafe events, catering preparation, space rentals, events, private dinners, take-home meals, and more.
Whether you found us through The Everyday Chef and Wife or walked into Partage during a pop-up or to pickup a meal-kit, you’ve found the same story—just told in a different way.
To explore our services, host a curated dinner, or plan your next event, feel free to contact us or visit experiencepartage.com, where you’ll find everything from our cafe pop-up dates to catering details, FAQs, and pre-order options.
At the heart of both brands is one mission:
To bring people back to the table through intentionally crafted food and service. No matter the location.
