play_arrow The Problem With Standard Catering
We solve the problem of having food that’s been sitting in trays for hours before it gets served, which as you know, is not a good thing. You know what I’m talking about. So do you want some dried out crap? (I didn’t think so).
play_arrow Catering Your Event With Our Food Trucks is Just Better
Although we can do traditional-style catering, if you're having an event in Metro Detroit, food truck catering has a lot of advantages.
