Entree All Day - Themed Menus

We love to share our delicious cooking with larger groups and with your collaboration, we can design the perfect menu for your event. Below is some sample pricing. We will work with you to develop an appropriate menu with the portions that satisfy your group. All large format entrees are made to order and require additional lead time to prepare. Entrees can be prepared warmed or frozen for heating at home. If you’re party is in a few days, no stress! We can provide you warming instructions so you can pick-up well in advance of your event.

Any of our most popular cafe prepared items can be made in larger quantities. In addition, we can create themed menus including Mexican, Italian and Asian flavors or just some tasty backyard BBQ. We are a blank slate and can craft any meal to perfection.

Multiple small bowls of Asian-style meatball appetizers topped with shredded carrots, pickled ginger, and cilantro, arranged on a tray.

Portion Cup Entrees

Not in the mood to serve? Think mini entrees in your own little cup. Good for passed hors d'oeuvre style or simply because they are cute. Most meals can be pre-portioned out so your guests can grab and go without a fuss.
