Word on the street…
“Tasty food and a cheerful attitude, that is what you get when you have Jamie Leffler on your production! She is my go-to person for Craft Service. Professional, Personable, and a creative variety in snackland! I love having Jamie on any production I’m working on, you will too! ”
— Brandy Burnett, Production Manager (Nashville’s Big Bash, CMT AWARDS)
“Jamie came to us via recommendation from our venue in Nashville, and we’re so glad we found her! Food Friend took great care of everyone on the crew with rigid Covid precautions and incredible variety; they really managed to highlight local restaurants, too. Her thoughtful green room assortments were a big hit with the clients, and by midway through the week she was anticipating crew members’ requests before they walked to her tables. She even sent the producers (who had driven to the site due to the pandemic) home with grocery bags of their favorite snacks for the road trips. I’d happily hire her again and definitely recommend her to anyone needing craft services in the Nashville area.”
— Dianne Jobson, Technical Show Management (Nissan)
“I met Jamie on a very large scale event at the Grand Ole Opry House. Being in charge of Craft Services for an event like this is no easy task, but Jamie proved to be one of the best in this field.”
— Tony Stephens, Manager of Technical Services | Opry Entertainment Group
“Jamie always and consistently went the extra mile in craft services. The meal selections were always delicious and extensive, she went above and beyond to meet the dietary needs of every single crew member, and her snack choices were top notch. It was especially awesome visiting Nashville and getting what seemed like a locals insight to the best cuisine in the area because of her meal selections. I wish Jamie could provide craft services to every show, tour, and event.”
— Jeremy Clevenger, Content Designer
“Food is my love language, and Food Friend is anything BUT run of the mill - Jamie caters to the crew with complete care and consideration. Not only does she set up a varied batch of healthy and delicious snacks, but also takes time to reach out and accommodate dietary needs. If I see Food Friend on a job site, I know it’s going to be a great gig!”
—Jordan T, Camera Operator/Video Technician
“Jamie is truly great at what she does! No matter if you’re vegetarian, paleo, gluten free, or have any food restrictions she will take care of you! She does a great job of covering all the bases from healthy snacks to providing that sugar fix on those 5 minute breaks we’re all familiar with. Not to mention for those special meal requests, she will hunt down the best local restaurants for you! Jamie deserves a Parnelli!”
—Kevin Fisher, Video Engineer
“Jamie and her team at Food Friend are dedicated to helping each crew member stay energized and feel valued while on set. Their offerings and enthusiasm are a refreshing positive energy brought to an industry that, at times, can be grueling and exhausting.”
-Zack Clevenger, Live Event Director & Steadicam
