Wedding Catering At The Thursday Club Of La Cañada Flintridge

Last night we had the great opportunity to cater a beautiful wedding at The Thursday Club Of La Cañada Flintridge and we had an awesome time!

This charming venue is nestled in the Crescenta Valley and on the far western end of the San Gabriel Valley. Originally founded in 1912, The La Cañada Thursday Club, the organization that operates the facility, is a social, cultural and philanthropic group whose mission is to reach out to the community to assist charitable, non-profit groups and to further youth in their education.

The Thursday Club is a charming venue located in the La Crescenta Valley, not too far from Pasadena.

Today, the La Cañada Thursday Club is a dynamic community club whose membership includes over 200 women in La Cañada and its surrounding areas. Program teas and luncheons are held monthly, scholarships are awarded annually, and the organization offers many other activities and philanthropic and service-oriented opportunities for its membership and community members.

Now and then the club throws open the doors of its facility to host weddings and special events and we were fortunate to be selected as the caterer for this particular evening.

As guests poured in on this warm Saturday afternoon we had by a few of our aguas frescas greet everyone like lovely hosts offering refreshments. Piña, Horchata & Fresa were on hand as thirsty loved ones made their way through the passage.

Not too long into the night the ceremony took place without a hitch and the courtyard was soon filled with applause. So much love! After the lovely couple and guests gathered around to mingle music drifted into the atmosphere as everyone was serenaded by the stylings of a romantic mariachi band.

That was our cue to bring out our terrific line of mouth-watering appetizers!

For this occasion we kicked off the festivities with a variety of exquisite selections such as our savory Tostadita de Salmón Ahumado, our sweet Espadillas de Frutas and our super popular Tostaditas de Ceviche.

Tostaditas de Ceviche is not only a seafood lover’s delight, but it’s also one of our most popular appetizers. Enjoy!

Tray after tray kept getting gobbled up, everyone must have been really hungry! We’re glad we were able to keep their grumbling bellies happy as we grilled up the heavy hitters.

At this point, the mariachi band took a quick break as everyone emptied out of the courtyard and into the clubhouse. We took advantage the empty patio to quickly bring out the taco cart and set up the condiments and salsas.

And, we only had 10 minutes!

No problem at all. The condiments and salsa tables were assembled with ease and the taco cart rolled into position like race car ready for competition.

Strategically placed at the far end of the courtyard, the taco cart was positioned within minutes ready to serve.

Soon guests were dismissed table-by-table to the taco cart where they were met with fantastic aromas emanating from the grill. We were proud to offer delightful selections of tacos such as our tantalizing carnitas, juicy pollo asado, succulent camarones and super flavorful spicy potato.

We also grilled up some ocean fresh mahi mahi served on a fresh hand-pressed tortilla.

Once everyone made their selections, they brought their plates to the condiments and salsa tables where they were able to dress up their own masterpiece with our signature pico de gallo, spicy jalapeño, roasted red tomato and farm fresh produce.

Finally to help round out their meals, guests had the opportunity scoop up creamy refried beans and fluffy Spanish rice. Oh, and we can’t forget the fresh made tortilla chips!

Overall we had a wonderful experience. We had the opportunity to show off some of the best menu items in our repertoire for guests coming in from all around the country. It was another beautiful evening at The Thursday Club and we are honored to have been a part of it.

We hope to see everyone again soon!
