St. Patrick’s Day Perfect Holiday for Get Together with Friends and Family

St Patrick’s Day, or the Feast of St. Patrick, is a festival that is observed all over the world. It not only pays tribute to St. Patrick – who brought Christianity to Ireland  but also those with Irish descent,

Whether you are celebrating the religious aspects of this holiday, your Irish ancestry or the ancestry of your friends and neighbors, food is always one of the staples for St. Patrick’s Day festivities.

St. Patrick’s Day is the perfect holiday for getting together with friends and family for good time and delicious eats.  When celebrating in the middle of the week, it can be difficult to find the time to plan and prep the perfect get-together. You can make this holiday run smoother by finding a quality, affordable Corporate catering company to help plan and execute the menu. Since St. Patrick’s Day is more of a casual celebration, a casual catering company is a must when working within a certain budget.  Order a variety of party platters to keep all of your guests full, or supplement your own cooking with a few appetizers or sides.

If you are on a tight budget, a potluck is a great way to share the expense.  Many caterers have low minimum orders, such as Ingallina’s Box Lunch, who have a two box lunch - or one party platter - minimum, and offer free delivery in the Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles metro areas.  They also usually have a few Irish options during the month of March.  Will a caterer deliver a delicious platter to your office or home saves time and costs not much more than preparing something yourself.

Don’t forget your coworkers when planning this special day. Falling toward the end of a long winter, St. Patrick’s Day is a perfect time to break up the dreariness. Work meetings can use some brightening up with a scrumptious St. Patrick’s Day themed lunch. Sandwiches and salad are always a hit, or try some Irish specialties like corned beef. There are many options to choose from depending on budget and meeting size.

For early morning meetings, muffins and fruit are a cost effective choice.  Add a cheese tray for some extra

protein, or cookies to snack on throughout the day.  There is no need for the excuse of a meeting in order to provide a few platters of protein or refreshing fruit to get employees through the mid-afternoon slump.  A little pick-me-up toward the end of the day can greatly improve productivity. 

Gift baskets are another great option for celebrating the Irish in us all.  A basket of St Patrick’s Day cookies is a great way to thank coworkers and business associates for their time and assistance.  Or send to all your friends and family to let them know you are thinking of them. A box of cookies also makes a great host or hostess gift when opting to attend another’s party.

Today’s casual catering company gives many options for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day that may not have been available in the years before. With a wide variety of platters, box lunches, and gift baskets, along with low minimums and large free delivery areas, the opportunities to celebrate this delightful day are endless.

Father’s Day Celebration 2012 with Ingallina’s Box Lunch

With Father’s Day just around the corner, it is time to start making plans for showing your father how much he means to you!  Taking him out to breakfast is always a popular option.  However, if you are looking to avoid the Father’s Day crowds, there are many other ways to go.

One option is to enjoy the wonderful June weather by having a BBQ.  Let dad do the relaxing and barbeque him up some delicious steaks.  If you don’t have a lot of time to prepare, order sides such as Macaroni Salad, Potato Salad or Fruit Kabobs from Ingallina’s Box Lunch. Free delivery throughout their large delivery area (Everett to Tacoma and East to Issaquah in the Seattle area) makes this option easy and affordable.

If you are not skilled in the barbeque area, have lunch delivered to him. Nothing makes one feel more special than a surprise lunch showing up at work or home. A delivery of two Box Lunches ensures he won’t be eating alone! This is a great option if your father lives out of the area, or you just aren’t able to connect on his special day. Again, Ingallina’s Box Lunch is a good option for this service, having a minimum order of just two Box Lunches, with delivery not only in the Seattle area, but in Portland ( Vancouver to Wilsonville, Hillsboro to Troutdale) and Los Angeles as well (almost all of the LA area, including LAX, Burbank, and Pasadena.)

Or treat his whole office with delicious party platters and he is sure to be treated like king for the day!  From Sandwiches and Salads to Chicken Skewers and Desserts one can find something for just about everyone.

For out of state fathers, there is always the option of gift baskets.  A nice meat, cheese and cracker basket, or a basket full of sweets are both always a hit!  The newest edition to the Ingallina’s Box Lunch line up is their black and white cookie which is sure to be a crowd pleaser!  These are available in a variety of gift baskets which are available for shipping throughout the U.S.

No matter what you plan to get Dad for Father’s Day, keep in mind that there is other – in many ways better – options than a typical Father’s Day breakfast or lunch. Having items delivered to him are more special and convenient, and can be more price effective too!

Special Cookies for St Patrick’s Day

Saint Patrick's Day is a cultural and religious holiday celebrated on 17 March. It commemorates Saint Patrick (c. AD 387–461), the most commonly recognized of the patron saints of Ireland, and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. It is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church and Lutheran Church. Saint Patrick's Day was made an official feast day in the early seventeenth century, and has gradually become a secular celebration of Irish culture in general.

Saint Patrick's Day is a public holiday in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Newfoundland and Labrador and in Montserrat. It is also widely celebrated by the Irish diaspora, especially in places such as Great Britain, Canada, the United States, Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand, among others. Today, St. Patrick's Day is probably the most widely celebrated saint's day in the world.(source by:Wikipedia)

Corporate Caterers in California

When looking for corporate catering, one has many different options. Many local cafes and restaurants offer catering services. However, it is best to use a company that specializes in corporate catering.

Corporate Caterers

Companies that specialize in corporate catering are designed to fit the needs of the corporation. They know the importance of offering meals that are healthy and filling, while keeping the focus of the lunch on the matters at hand. Dishes are often chosen to be easily eaten, without making a mess.

Other companies offer an impressive array of box lunches and party platters, all of which are served cold. This has many advantages. This allows the work schedule to be flexible, as cold foods can be served within a larger window. It also allows one’s attention to be on other things, and not having to sit and wait for the exact moment the food arrives. Many large events involve set up that requires food to sit for a period of time.

Another advantage these companies have is their ability to choose their location. Many do not have store-fronts and are thus able to select a location with lower overhead cost, and more conveniently located to corporate areas. This keeps the cost of the items down, compared to local cafes and restaurants which pay for prime real estate.

There are also many services that are offered through companies which specialize in corporate catering company which may not be found at other catering options. A good example of this are the services offered at Ingallina’s Box Lunch, located in the downtown Los Angeles area. They are able to take orders up until 9:30 the day of delivery, while most companies require the order to be put in the day before. They also accept cancellations up until 9:00am the day of delivery for most orders. They are also able to offer free delivery to a large portion of the Los Angeles area, including parts of Burbank and Pasadena, with low minimum orders.

Ingallina’s Box Lunch is also able to set companies up with recurring orders, frequent order incentives, along with other time and money saving services, including custom gift baskets and other corporate gifts.

There is much thought put into every aspect of corporate catering when done by specialized companies. How long before it will be eaten, how to ensure bread doesn’t get soggy and how to best accommodate the needs of the corporate event managers. These are just some of the considerations that go into creating meals which will leave the customer happy, fulfilled and coming back time after time.
