A Personal Chef for
Catering & Classes
Catering: From Weddings to
Brunch at Home
Hungry For Time specializes in catering events of all sizes and types in the Pittsburgh area, from dinner for two served in your home to a wedding for three hundred prepared on location. Our personal chefs know that each event is unique and that’s why we’ve stayed away from making meal packages and standardized menus. So whether you need elegant hors d’ oeuvres passed to a guest or a home style buffet, vegan wedding catering or baby shower food, we’d love to brainstorm with you and create the perfect menu for your event!
Below are a few suggested menus to give you some ideas for your event.
Let us take the stress out of the planning, cooking, serving and cleanup, so you can spend more time with your guest and actually enjoy your party!
