Pairings Events, Jonathan Kay
Jonathan Kay's culinary journey began at the prestigious Culinary Institute of America, where he immersed himself in the art and science of cooking. From the moment he stepped into the bustling kitchens, he knew he had found his passion. With determination and dedication, he honed his skills under the guidance of top chefs, absorbing every technique and flavor combination like a sponge.
After graduating in 2005, Jonathan embarked on a culinary adventure that took him from the vibrant streets of New York City to the historic alleys of Philadelphia and the bustling food scene of Boston. In each city, he soaked up the unique culinary traditions and flavors, refining his craft with every dish he created.
In the midst of uncertainty during the Pandemic, Pairings Events and Catering emerged as a beacon of connection and comfort. Recognizing the profound absence of communal gatherings and the longing for shared experiences, Pairings stepped up to fill the void. With a commitment to safety and a passion for bringing people together, they pioneered safe dining experiences when traditional gathering places shuttered.
What began as a response to necessity has blossomed into a thriving enterprise. Pairings Events and Catering has evolved into a cornerstone of the community, offering not only exceptional cuisine but also a sanctuary for celebration and togetherness. Their brick-and-mortar location serves as more than just a kitchen—it's a hub for private events, cooking classes, and all manner of gatherings.
Specializing in creating unforgettable moments, Pairings caters to a diverse range of occasions, from intimate dinners for twelve to grand-scale wedding receptions. With meticulous attention to detail and a dedication to excellence, they craft culinary experiences that transcend mere meals, leaving guests enchanted and memories cherished.
Live music by singer/songwriter Derek Dibbern
Derek’s is a voice that recalls the classic songwriters of the 1970’s. Obvious comparisons to Cat Stevens, Van Morrison and James Taylor come easily, but in addition, he brings an alternative sound reminding one of Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy or Sufjan Stevens.
Born among the cornfields of the Great Plains of Nebraska, Derek began playing and writing songs after receiving his first guitar in 1986. Since then, he has travelled widely in the lower 48 playing his original songs and favorite cover versions for audiences from California to New York.
As of 2022 he has called Massachusetts his home .Derek performs a busy schedule schedule with shows from Provincetown to Salem and all along the South Shore.
