i’m sorry i don’t have a photo to go with this post, but i just wanted to tell you about the other yummy part of my day [my apologies to non-local readers. this post may make you drool in frustration].
i alluded earlier to a long meeting that i was in this morning–i was also in charge of organizing the catering for the event. there were about 16 people present and i was given a budget to work with. there are so many places to choose from, but as soon as i thought about our meeting place and tried to think of nearby, not-chain restaurants, i knew exactly who to call–bunky’s! they are one of my very favorite restaurants in town, but i don’t often get a chance to go for one reason or another, so i grabbed this opportunity in an instant. i wasn’t sure if they catered, but they do! and the owner, teresa, was so flexible and easy to work with. they delivered the food to our meeting in hot-trays (or whatever those things with the canned fire are called) and even set up the buffet line with the plates we’d brought (to avoid having to use disposables–although apparently bunky’s provides very environmentally conscious disposable options!). everyone loved the food–kafta brochettes with fragrant rice, cheese ravioli, homemade (amazing) hummus, pita breads, a delicious green salad and cute little cannoli and baklava for dessert. in fact, everyone loved the food so much that i may have just volunteered to arrange the food for any future catered meetings! if you’ve never dined at this restaurant, i highly recommend it and the next time you need a caterer, you’ll know who to call.
