Making Plans

 

Thank you for discovering My Caterer. Now let us help you in planning you child's Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

"From the first day when we met with Met, we knew we were in good hands. As parents planning a Bar Mitzvah, we were, needless to say, quite nervous but Met's super friendliness and great ideas about food made us feel...things would be fine."

 

 

The Kiddush

 

Since we cater Kosher Style only, Temple Israel is our ideal location. We have catered there previously to much success.

"My Caterer made us feel that no matter what they were faced with it could be handled. We must have had hundreds of questions and all were answered with a reassuring smile and a simple "don't worry, everything will be fine." Everything about the Kiddush luncheon was great - including the main dishes, the salads, the desserts. Fabulous!"

 

 

Evening Celebration and Activities

 

My Caterer can also come to your home or host the evening party in its banquet salons at the Ottawa Athletic Club. We have three lovely rooms that can easily accommodate 150 people, a spacious dance floor for your "hora" as well as D.J. space and activities for your young guests.

"The evening party was held at My Caterer's banquet rooms at the OttawaAthletic club and this is an excellent facility for children and adults to party. A two hour sports activity program was arranged with the staff of the OAC while parents relaxed with drinks and hors d'oeuvres. This was followed by an evening of partying and more food - a buffet which was superb."

 

 

My Menu Plans

While we are not licensed under the Vaad HaKashrut , we have experience with Kosher Style Catering and can provide meat or dairy kiddushes or dinners. Strictly kosher guests can be accommodated with meals sealed under the auspices of the Vaad HaKashrut. Theme parties and distinctive and creative food stations are our specialties.

"There were a number of dietary needs that had to be met including vegetarian meals, Kosher meals and meals that had to address a number of food allergies. Besides these concerns, My Caterer had to provide foods for the very diverse tastes of children adolescents and adults. Not only was the food fabulous but the presentation of the food both at the kiddush luncheon as well as the evening party were "pieces of art". Every detail from fruit plates to the desserts were amazing. The saddle and sombrero for the Mexican Food Station were quite a hit!."

 

My Caterer can be your Caterer - call us to custom create your event.

 

"Our recommendation is to change the name from "My Caterer to "Where Did you Get that Caterer". During and since my son's Bar Mitzvah everyone who attended the event asked "where did you get that caterer?"

 

"We have used a number of superlatives to describe our experiences with My Caterer and we are sure that more could be used but simply put everything was absolutely fantastic!"
