Dessert receptions have grown into more elegant affairs than their old-fashioned “cookies and punch” counterparts of the past. Assortments of divinely decadent sweets lavishly displayed with a chic modern twist give an opulent feel to receptions with a modest budget. And happily, “Green Weddings” are also a growing trend with a focus on local and organic menus, and newly available bamboo disposable ware.

Unlike a standard buffet - where the food may look good on the buffet, but guests are expected to load up their plates with what quickly becomes a messy pile of food - the small presentation of demi plates allows us to control the look of individual portions. We artfully design each bite so that your guest can have a delightful sampling of different flavors. It's a move toward restaurant-style quality and presentation that the catering industry has embraced.

Our chefs are stealing the show! Action stations are the stage as our chefs prepare food while engaging your guests in conversation. What could be better then a flaming crepe, Thai basil stir-fry, or pan seared sea bass made on the spot for your guests? It makes the food presentationsmore fun, unexpected, and very interactive!

Mobile Buffets
First we went “vertical” with our buffets . . . then we went “floating” . . . and now we’ve gone “mobile”! Here’s are newest funky presentation idea: The Acrylic “Mobile Buffet”! The mobile buffet is a novel idea to move food to the guests rather than the guests to the food. We use these to serve cupcakes, ice cream cones, or bamboo cones filled with with hors d’oeuvres. Here we are presenting a variety of savory tastes: Thai Beef Salad with Cilantro and Lime; Pomme Frits with Fried Sage and Bleu Cheese Aioli; Assorted Vegetable Chips with Sea Salt. The possibilities are endless and you’re sure to see these at many of our signature events!

This specialty furniture is available for rental through Culinary Crafts.
