We really hate the word "catering". This word conjures all the worst least-common-denominator associations, and we believe that through our attention to craft & collaboration, our work attains an authentic resonance far beyond that of most service providers. We don't want to "cater to"; we aim to work with and compose for, to express & celebrate our clients' & partners' personalities as best we can. but... Until we find a more poetic & still succinct descriptor, catering is what we do. Our projects are equally balanced between private (weddings, birthdays, social gatherings), non-profit (galas, openings, fundraisers) and corporate (launches, fashion shows, meetings). MISSION: We believe in FOOD. Our ingredients are our sustenance; we cannot achieve the summit without pristine & inspirational building blocks. We love local purveyors and seasonal items, as these allow us an authentic connection to terroir. As contemporary cosmopolitans, we also embrace our global culture, exotics and imports. We believe in PEOPLE. Our community is our soul & spirit. We are chefs, artists, actors, models, musicians, dancers, thinkers & rogue scholars. We support one another at work - but also in our retreats, softball team, theater events, excursions, parties and games. Our collective spirit animates our events in a way that rote professionalism never could. We are proud, we are vibrant, we are strange & wonderful. We believe in CRAFT. Our culinary craft is our body: heart, frame, muscle and gut. We understand ourselves first & foremost as craftsmen. We are driven by ingredients, not by ego; we are inspired by Nature, not by trends. Our cuisine aims to highlight not our own creative genius but the inherent beauty of the natural world.
