FREE China Place Settings Rental For Your Catered Company Holiday Party

Since October is half over, we might as well go ahead and get the holiday season kicked off!  Once we pass Halloween, it seems like the days literally FLY by....... the year is over.  It's all gonna be a blur from now on people! :-)

So before we all really get caught up in the 2013 Holiday Season, let's take a moment and try to plan some things out.  Like that company holiday party that you're always in charge of organizing, and every year, it creeps up on you.  Before you know it, it's almost Thanksgiving, and no one in the office has even discussed the planning yet!  YIKES!  Realistically, at that point, it's kind of late in the game for planning.  That doesn't mean that you can't pull it off, but it does limit the options your company has.

In thinking about how we can be "The Best" for our Columbus, OH customers, we got to thinking about what we could do specifically for businesses this year.  Here's what we came up with!

Taste Of The Best Catering is giving Columbus, OH businesses an early holiday gift!!

If your company books your catered company holiday party with us, by October 31st 2013, for any available date remaining in 2013, we'll give you the "Real China Place Settings Rental Package" for 20-50 guests FREE!!  

Our gift to you is an 9 piece place setting, with 1 salad dressing carafe and salt & pepper shaker set per table.  

This package has a value of $156 to $390, depending on how many guests your corporate party has!!!

  
Many times, the event budget for Company Holiday Parties is tight, and having real place settings gets dropped from the plan, because of the added expense, outside of the food.

But real china place settings add such a level of elegance to any event.  And holiday parties usually have more of a decor element, mainly because The Season has more of a decor element.  Place settings with charger plates, colored napkins and a small centerpiece can sometimes add just enough, to serve as the complete decor of your party space.

This gift is only available for our corporate catering clients, and only one gift is redeemable per event, and can't be used with any other discounts.  Also, your event doesn't have to be a "Holiday" event, it can be anything, like customer appreciation, employee appreciation, grand opening, or networking event. 

If you're planning a personal catered holiday event, stay tuned, we'll have a pretty valuable gift for you folks as well!!  

Don't miss out on this valuable gift from Taste Of The Best Catering.  Visit our website, and request a catering quote for your upcoming corporate holiday party, or give us a call at 614-358-4559 with your questions.  Get a jump start on your holiday planning AND save some money!

Seen The New Watermelon Oreos Yet? Yumm or Yuck?

Watermelon Oreos: Yumm or Yuck?

The crew over at Oreo are at it again!  

Watermelon, a crowd favorite during the summer has gone junk food!  Have you seen these yet? Summertime Limited-Edition Watermelon Oreos. What do you think? Leave a classic ALONE? Or, Walk on the Watermelon Wild-Side?  Or maybe just stick with the real thing!

They've taken the classic deliciousness of the Old-School Oreo and created another flavor mash up, this time for summer 2013.  The Limited-Edition Watermelon Oreo is available in Target store now.  But how will these be received by the public?

This definitely isn't the first time that Oreo has released limited versions of flavor plays on their chocolate and golden Oreo cookies.  

With "Candy Corn", "Shur Bert", and "Mint" flavored creme fillings being offered, I guess this is no surprise.  And they picked a whopper of a flavor for summer!  Watermelon!  I mean....come on!  I have only come across a few people in life, that didn't like watermelon!  It's a crowd-pleaser, when the heat starts to rise.  So Kudos on the flavor choice.

I have to admit that we're classic Oreo lovers, here at Taste Of The Best Catering.

So these other flavors haven't really enticed me, because usually, I don't tend to enjoy most artificial fruit flavorings.  But I did come across the Shur Bert flavored golden Oreos a while back in Walmart, and bought them. (Who knows why....I think I liked the colors...lol)  They were interestingly different, but only for about 2-3 cookies worth.  Then the flavoring became too sweet, and the familiar fake-flavoring aftertaste started to creep in.  I haven't tried the new Watermelon Oreos yet.  In theory, they sound good, I guess.  But in reading about them, they seem to not have any natural flavoring in them (obviously), so in my mind, the melon flavor would need to be very mild, in hopes of leaving the aftertaste out of the picture.  Hopefully someone I know will buy some, and I can grab a few to try.

"Wonderful Watermelon - NOW IN SEASON"

In the meantime, I'll go with fresh watermelon!  

Peak season for watermelon is Mid-June through August, so we're in full swing right now!  Fresh watermelon is Lycopene rich.  Lycopene gives the watermelon it's red color, and is one of the most effective antioxidants found in fresh foods!  Watermelon contains Iron, Zinc, Protein and Fiber, and also has anti-inflammatory properties as well.

If you would like to indulge yourself in this summertime cool down treat, check out our "Wonderful Watermelon" Pinterest Board.

What do you think about the new Watermelon Oreos?  Leave a classic ALONE?  Or walk on the Watermelon Wild Side?
