Taste and Company

Business Description

One of the nicest things ever said to us by a client was that, "Guests
feel privileged to be at a Taste affair." We work around the clock to
ensure this never changes.

We believe that exceptional food doesn't need to be pretentious. Some
of our best menus were inspired by our wonderful clients who either
wanted a simple summer picnic or food that would appeal to both
adults and children. Distinctive, fresh food is neither intimidating or
mundane...it is simply enlightened.

Since 1991, Taste & Company has covered a lot of ground. Our staff
grew up in wonderfully diverse culinary households, and while traveling
the world, we've been exposed to food and entertaining ideas from
every continent. Add that to over forty years combined experience in
the food industry, and you end up with a creative team who can make
all your dreams come true.

Let us design a unique event for you, centered around good food and
good company.
