With our off beat menus Celebrated Food is injecting whimzy and playful experimentation that can lead to great ideas for sparking up a party. While some of these ideas may seem hard to conceptualize just on paper, we present them hear as a demonstration of our inventiveness and creative abilities.

 

PASSED PLATES

This concept involves butlering small servings of fork friendly food to the guests. Servers present the guests with the plated items as well as forks. The guest enjoys the three to four bites and sets the plate down in preparation of the next passing. The effect is to bring a tasting dinner to the guests with out the need to provide seating. It also allows a continuous flow of socializing because there is no interruption by a diner bell or call to a buffet. Full dinners can be served in this manner and the addition of hors d,ouerve before or simultaneously creates a fantastic array with variety a substance. The natural conclusion to a party of this style is to flow into butlered desserts. These are miniature versions of popular confections that again are presented to the guests by the servers on trays.
