As a catering company, it can be a challenge to generate urgency for summer party planning when we’re all still defrosting our windshields. And you know what, we get it.

Summer is coming, quickly, and it’s time to get organized.
While you’re working up your tailgate, bridal shower, or company picnic guest list, take a few minutes to peruse our summer menu favorites. Outline your plans and our team can recommend a spread so tailored to your theme, you need only to show up and hang the piñata. For inspiration, read on for sizzling custom combos.

Fair warning, mass hulas have been known to ensue.
