There are many ways to cater a function:

Full Catering
We supply everything needed for your function ie: Linen, China, Glassware, Flatware, Food, Beverage (including cocktails), Servers, Bartenders and all the necessary equipment. If you decide to use plastic flatware and glasses or supply and do any of the above things yourself, of course the price will reflect this.

Drop Off
We prepare and deliver the foods you have choosen, hot or cold, fresh and delicious. It is then up to you to keep it at the proper serving temps and serve it when and how you prefer.

Pick Up
We prepare any foods you order and you pick it up here at Carey Lake using insulated coolers (yours) to keep the hot foods hot and the cold foods cold. This is especially anvantageous for people who only need the sides prepared and intend on cooking thier own entrees.

Things you should know:

1.) There are certain food products that do not transport or as we say "hold" well. Hot dogs, Hamburgers and chicken breasts are among these. So, if you order a drop-off or pick up it doesn't take a chef to grill these on site. Our continuing reputation is too important to us to have one of your guests complain about dried out meat.

2.) Always remember to stir up any hot dishes you purchase from anywhere as no matter how well it is packaged, it will get alittle stiff from setting around.

3.) All hot foods are best served from chaffer pans with sternos as this can give you some extra time to serve and gaurentee the quality of the product being served. The same goes for cold foods. A simple pan of ice surrounding these dishes will help to keep the quality and temp correct.

We would be happy to discuss any type of event you are planning and help make the day a memorable one. It is our desire to ensure that you have as much fun at your event as your guests.
