• Location of Event (City/State)
• Date of Event      
• Purpose of Event
• Set-Up Requirements (indoors, outdoors, etc.)      
• Start and End Time of Event
• Number of Guests Expected
• Meal Service Plan (Formal, Buffet Service, Cocktails, Appetizers, etc.)

"I am interested in having an event catered...

"What should I do first?      

Simply give us a call at 203-746-6929 to schedule your party. Be prepared to provide us with the date of your event, approximate guest count, and event location. We then proceed to prepare a customized proposal based on your event needs. Please call us ahead of time so we can prepare properly for your event.

Can I cook the food beforehand and have your waitstaff warm and serve it?

This is precisely what we do for the majority of our clients. Although we can assist in coordinating and assisting with food caterers and chefs, in most cases our clients prefer to prepare their event menus (including the cooking) on their own. We provide the staff to set-up, serve and clean-up on the day of your event.
