Introduction: We are a delicious and affordable catering service near you! Each event, whether birthday parties for children, breakfast in bed, intimate candlelight dinners for two, company dinner parties for 50 or wedding receptions involving a hundred or more guests, is important and special for us! I've had plenty of inspiration to draw from as a chef. My mom was born in Spain, and from her, I learned how to make paella and tapas before they became fashionable. From my father's Italian heritage, I learned about homemade pasta, braised meats and panettone. My signature is my empanadas. These pastry wraps are often filled with a fragrant blend of meats and spices. In trying to recreate the empanadas of my youth, I have made the preparation into a gourmet trip in which the traditional recipes, such as Criollas (beef, onions, herbs and spices), pave the way to the non-traditional such as shredded chicken, spinach and feta cheese, ricotta, sun-dried tomatoes, basil and mozzarella. The more exotic combinations include Canadian bacon, blue cheese and walnuts, Hawaiian (ham, cheese and pineapple), Lebanese (lemon-marinated beef and Mid East traditional seasoning) gingered sweet potatoes and cheddar, and the latest introduction: empanadas for breakfast: eggs, cheese and bacon (or sausages), smoked salmon, cream cheese and red onions or the vegetarian with egg, cheese and mixed vegetables.
