In 2009 Corks + Forks Catering started as Cordon Bleu Catering when Certified Master Chef Michael "Cheffee" Ober and Sommelier Melanie Robertson-Ober brought their talents together to provide private chef and catering services in the Palm Beach area. They met sailing the world on the private mega yacht, Silver Cloud, owned by philanthropist, Alex Dreyfoos where Michael was working as Head Chef, and Melanie as the Chief Stewardess.
Their mutual love of food and wine soon blossomed into romance. On return to Palm Beach they decided to combine Michael's extraordinary talent and credentials as a Master Chef with Melanie's love of wine and ability to create delicious and surprising wine pairings with cuisines from throughout the world. Michael has experience at Michelin-starred restaurants and Melanie conducts service with five star standards, so they knew they could satisfy the demanding and sophisticated clientele of Palm Beach.
They have worked with Coca Cola, Pepsi, Nike, Under Armor, City of West Palm Beach, Liman Gallery, Cakebread Family, Virginia Phillip Wine Shop and Academy, Washington Nationals, Cartier, and Beth DeWoody.
