Orange County Catering – An All Organic Engagement Party
Eco Caters did an all organic engagement party in Orange County on November 28th. The bride and groom are very eco conscious which is why they preferred an eco friendly company catering their party. The party consisted of stationary hors d’oeuvres that included: Chef’s choice cheese display with market fruit and preserves; Mezze platter with hummus, baba ganouj, roasted red peppers, olive salad, and fresh pita. It was a plated dinner party with a beautiful mixed green salad with goat cheese, sliced almonds, goji berries, and avocado dressing. Following the salads were the main dishes that consisted of porter marinated tri tip with green peppercorn sauce; roasted coho salmon with garlic, lemon, black peppercorn and parsley; and pan sautéed polenta with carrot, celery root, and fire roasted tomatoes. For dessert the bride and groom served home made ice cream and three different pieces of cake to each guest. The bride and groom decided that it was up to their guests to decide which wedding cake they were to serve at their wedding by a people’s choice vote.
The fresh fish that we served for the engagement party came from Fishco Market. The decor was made up of very natural decorations and pictures and being aware of the environment, the bride and groom used plates from Verterra, which is dinnerware that is 100% biodegradable and compost-able made from fallen palm leaves. Being more green as well as eating organic definitely has its delicious perks when it comes to Eco Caters fresh and healthy foods. We specialize in organic catering, and would be more than happy to provide Orange County catering services that are sure to wow our clients.
On September 27th, 2008 we did a one of a kind event called the Wellderly Social in San Diego. Hundreds of healthy elderly men and women who donated their time and blood, for a good cause to Scripps Research Center, were rewarded with an invitation to this thank you event. The Eco Caters’ staff dressed up in 40’s and 50’s style attire to create the ambiance of old school service. Organic Roy Rogers and Shirley Temple beverages were served from the bar while fresh cooked sliders with organic free range beef, shrimp pipettes, beggars purses and more were passed on trays by the staff. Our miniature burgers, or sliders, were the biggest hit with the guests – made with grass fed beef, blue cheese and caramelized onions on a fresh baked organic slider roll. The band, consisting of all throw back band members, provided great entertainment. On the black and white checkered dance floor, the research participants danced the afternoon away. Everyone seemed to be extremely enjoying the band, excited about the food, enthusiastic about the dress of the staff and happy to have been a part of this good cause. Eco Caters is also thrilled about being given the opportunity to serve these wonderful people.
Eco Caters is always excited to cater events that are laid back and for a good cause. The guests at this event were very deserving of a treat and it came in the form of delicious organic catering from local San Diego farms.
