VIEWING PARTY @ The Penny, SLO
T&J reached out to us last minute to cater their viewing party for a show they are in, hoping for a laid back “Summer Picnic” vibe. Since guests would be in and out, we crafted a menu that was not only delicious but also easy to eat, mingle-friendly, and satisfying!
Our chefs brainstormed with the couple and came up with 4 different stations featuring all the best parts of a picnic.
