Catering

Welcome to The Wandering Gourmet Catering

The Wandering Gourmet provides on-site catering for all occasions; from Burgers and Brats at your daughter’s Graduation Barbecue to Tray-Passed Hors-d’oeuvres at your Cocktail Party or a Pasta Station at your son’s 1st Communion celebration.   Let us cook for your Event.
Unlike a traditional caterer who has pre-set menus from which you must select your menu, The Wandering Gourmet wants to prepare what you would like to include on the menu.  Each event is customized to your specifications! 
If you are unsure of what to serve, we are happy to assist you with planning your menu.  Once you have selected and approved the menu, leave the rest to us! 
The Wandering Gourmet provides services to ensure a worry-free event so that you have time to enjoy your guests. 

"Thanks so much for taking pride and care in what you do. Excellence is in short supply these days, but not at The Wandering Gourmet.  - Lori, Troy
