Our Mission
Tastebuds Custom Catering was conceived on a homegrown love of aromatic dishes, sumptuous flavors, love and laughter in the heart of any culinary inspired home, the kitchen. Chef Greg Shapiro cultivated his love of delectable food and warm company from his family’s table into a boutique style catering enterprise knowing that nothing brings an event and people together like food.
Here at Tastebuds, our priority is always you. Since we are a custom catering company, we do not have any packages or preselected menus. We design our proposals and menus around your needs, wants, budget and venue. We are eager to sit down and collaborate with you on how to make your vision become reality.
Since our fare is customized to your tastes and ideas, the possibilities are endless! We love to be creative and are determined to exceed your expectations. We consider our elevated cuisine to be artistic as well as delicious, so we are excited to combine our talents and passion with your imagination.
Our presentation is something we also consider a form of art. From a lavish affair to a rustic reception, we are ready and able to fulfill your heart’s desire. We are more than capable of accommodating large events, or catering to a simple, but elegant romantic dinner for two. There is nothing we consider to be out of our reach, so please challenge us with your grandest dreams!
Green Initiative
The team at Tastebuds is committed to creating and employing environmentally sustainable practices in our efforts to contribute to a Greener Future.
Some of our methods include incorporating organic, locally produced and sustainable food and drink whenever possible. We also grow our own hydroponic micro greens and herbs as the weather allows. We choose pest-free, local and sustainable floral for our designs and reuse and reclaim our unique decor after all events.
When feasible, we utilize internal and external recycling procedures for glass, paper and plastic to reduce our impact on the environment. For our drop off style events, we use post consumer recyclable and compostable disposables to complete that cycle. We are passionate about educating both the public and our clients on how to create Eco-friendly events.
We appreciate the impact we all have on our environment and are always looking for new ways to improve upon our practices. Please check in with us anytime about our continuing commitment to excellence and accountability.
