                            Hors d'oeuvres Only

                            Picture

                            Many functions today are planned as ‘heavy hors d’oeuvres’ in lieu of a seated meal, or simply with hors d’oeuvres not intentioned to replace a meal. We offer a variety of displayed and passed hors d’oeuvres from which you may select based on your taste and budget, ranging from $15 to $45 per person, depending on the menu you select. Staffing is charged by the hour.
