Founded in 2003, Essence of the Thymes is committed to providing extreme service and exemplary food, always served safely and tastefully. Owner Gina Omalanz stepped onto the catering scene with the goal to create a fresh new take on catering that provided delicious, restaurant quality food and service. Friends and family worked together to remodel a kitchen on the downtown Port Orchard Waterfront, and you can still find us there today! What started out as a dream has become a business that feels more like family. We welcome you to become part of the Essence Family!

As a passionate chef and bartender, I blend culinary artistry with the craft of mixology to create unforgettable experiences. With years of experience catering weddings and special events, I take pride in crafting menus and drinks that tell a story, using fresh, high-quality ingredients to make every bite and sip memorable. My passion lies in curating unique menus and cocktails that reflect the local flavors and the personal stories of each event I cater. My goal is always to bring people together over good food and creative cocktails, leaving guests delighted and events truly exceptional.
