Setting the Bar in the State Fair and National Music Festival Market

2025 Florida State Fair

How It’s Done:  Careful-Selective Menu Creation; Quality fresh-never frozen ingredients; Prep/cooking/timing methodology; Commercial Kitchen with Professional Chef Level Culinary Practitioners and a 110% standard for every meal that leaves an AMC Kitchen​

Careful-Selective Menu Creation
Our niche kitchens are based on the proven standard of a cooked to order, build your own meal.  With that, you will not find our kitchens serving standard fair or fried foods.  Sure, we offer fried potatoes (Hand cut fries) as a side item to our Stuffed and Mashed Gourmet Burger Kitchen, and we hand fry fresh Tortillas for our Taco Salads Shells and Build Your Own Loaded Nachos.  However, that is the exception.  Most of what we prepare and cook, are done so, using our grills and saute station, like you see in common brick and mortar Chef Kitchens. 

Quality fresh-never frozen ingredients
Our protein list covers the main-land based animals (Beef, Chicken and Pork) and seafood items (Lobster, Shrimp, Scallop and Blue Crab), along with vegetables (Lettuces, Tomato, Peppers, Onion, Mushroom, Corn, Beans and Fresh Herbs) found in a common garden.  We carefully select our purveyors and contract for daily deliveries, to insure our 40’ refrigeration-prep trailer(s), are stocked with fresh meats, seafood and vegetables throughout the duration of the show

Prep/cooking/timing methodology
We’re proud to say, every one of our Cooks are Certified Food Managers and possess no less than 5-years, fine dining, “Chef” level experience.   Anyone can pass a 15-minute online serve safe exam and drop fries & corn dogs in a fryer or plate nachos.  It takes a much higher level of experience to master our art of food preparation, cooking, timing and methodology.  Most of our sauces, dressings and recipes are Chef Created, proprietary to AMC.  Our ability to time the plating of each meal, is mastered through hundreds of thousands of servings.

Commercial Kitchen and Professional Chef Level Culinary Practitioners
AMC assembles and disassembles a full Kitchen on site for each show.   We also travel with at least one 40’ Commercial Kitchen and Refrigeration/Stock Trailer.  This is a must, to deliver our style of menu at par with brick & mortar establishments.  In addition to talent & character screening and diligent training, our staff is 100% drug and alcohol free, insuring, we operate at the highest levels possible at each show we represent.

Unmatched 110% standard for every meal that leaves an AMC Kitchen
Simple, if it’s not right, we do not send it out.   We take pride in serving the best food, the highest quality food everywhere we go
