Save on Christmas Catering
We love our customers and want to be fair and transparent. So, here’s how to save on Christmas catering.
- Choose disposable dinnerware.
- Skip the plated full-service dinner and do a buffet instead.
- Save on cocktail hour – cheese and charcuterie can be pricey – offer some dips such as hummus and fresh pita.
- Ham is absolutely delicious and a cheaper alternative to turkey.
- Leftovers often make a great meal the next day.
