Delicate Hors d'oeuvres and Passed Finger Foods

Allow our professional chefs to delicately assemble our finger foods and hors d'oeuvures at your event. Our hors d'oeuvres are steps above the routine build-your-own sandwiches and pre-made cheese and meat platters.  Our cocktail party foods are made with seasonally available ingredients and prepared just for your event and usually finished on-site by one of our professional chefs.

The quantity and cost of the food depends upon the number of guests, the length of the event, and if the finger food is a substitute for a meal.  In our free consultation, we will be pleased to recommend the quantity and variety for a memorable event.
