Bruce & Peggy's Backyard Birthday Party

Chinese Chicken Salad In Mini "Take Out" Containers With Chopsticks

Spicy Sausage & Shrimp Skewers

Leticia Serving Pannini's

Mini Grilled Turkey Pannini with Dijon, Pesto & Provolone Cheese

Catered a double birthday party for Bruce & Peggy in Los Gatos this past weekend!! What a fun party...they had their own Bocce Ball court that their guests were playing and what a great view of downtown San Jose from their home in the hills. The menu was all appetizers and finger foods. I find that most of my events that I cater, people prefer that over just a dinner-it's more fun and the variety pleases many party guests. Here is the menu, you will notice some repeat items on this menu that I've done before, but these are crowd pleasers!!!
