What It’s Like to Cater a Sex Party

There's lots of aphrodisiacs, nudity, and tantric massages.

Welcome back to Restaurant Confessionals , where we talk to the unheard voices of the restaurant industry from both the front- and back-of-house about what really goes on behind the scenes at your favourite establishments.

I'm a food artist and chef. I do food consultancy, food installations, and catering for parties—a lot of VIP and erotic parties. I love to play with food.

When I first moved to New York, I signed up on a website called Kitchensurfing, where people hire you to come cook in their homes. There was this one guy who was my first and only customer, and he was well known for throwing these big parties in the underground scene in Brooklyn. At first, he would just hire me to come over and cook at his own little personal parties at home. He didn't know that I was a famous chef back home—nobody at that time knew who I was—which is why I was so cheap at that time. Then he found out who I was and what I could do, so he started to invite me to do these huge parties, and I would cater the VIP room. In one of the VIP rooms I met another girl who throws burlesque parties, and she liked my work so she started to get me to do those parties. One thing led to another, and eventually I started catering a lot of what I'll call "erotic parties."

For most people, the things I have seen would be really crazy, but because I have so seen so many crazy things all around the world, I'm used to it: There are a lot of naked people flying, fire dancing, and a lot of sexuality.

I will say there was one thing I saw recently that blew my mind. I did a New Year's event at a spa, and there was this tantric massage workshop where there was a sex instructor and he instructed us—literally—how to do a tantric vagina massage. I'd been to Thailand and learned these things, so I thought, "What's going to be new?" But he was so detailed and instructive, by only touching this naked girl on the exterior, she was getting off for 45 straight minutes, so this for me was the craziest thing I have seen at a party I catered. I learned a lot about my body. I wish all of humanity had the chance to see this.
