Culinary's "Concepts"

Two *star* members of the Culinary Concepts' team tied the knot yesterday!  Ben and Kelli met working at events together, and throughout their courtship continued to be integral members of our team...so who better to cater their wedding than us?  We wish them the best of luck as they move on to their future together in Boston--but we will definitely miss them! 

We would in a second recommend your company to anyone and everyone.....and we are VERY HAPPY we picked you and your company and your employees were all the best!    Everyone says that was the best wedding they have ever been to...and your company was the number one reason.    

Culinary Concepts is was honored when we were asked to cater the Asian Heritage Awards for the 2nd year in row, once again hosted aboard the USS Midway.   The event included entertainment by Japanese pop star Masumi, the Thai Classical Ballet and the Silk Road Dancers from San Diego, while Amy Chanphavong, Miss Asian America, welcomed guests and assisted on stage.

On deck, during the reception, Kenneth Nguyen, a local designer and hair stylist, showed off some of his avant garde fashions of snappy cocktail dresses made from trash bags, as he put it –“good for the environment.” Naruwan Taiko, a traditional drum group, called guests to dinner.  An exciting event for all in attendance!

Looking for the perfect team builder event, and tired of the same old ropes course, scavenger hunt or trust games?  Look no further--because the Iron Chef Competition is where it's at!  Our client NRG treated their staff to a cooking competition last month that was soo much fun!  Culinary Concepts provided the produce and other grocery goods, coordination and equipment, but after that, teams were on their own to create their recipes.

A salsa competition pitted executives from across the nation against each other, and none other than our own Culinary expect Craig Martin was asked to be an honorary judge in the taste test (he GLADLY accepted!).  Please contact us if this interests you--it is really a great way to bring your staff together for a friendly (and delicious) competition!

Well now you can!  These photos really do a great job in illustrating just HOW HARD our chefs work when they are on site.  They have the "plate-up" process down to an artform!
