Month Tasting Success!

March 15th, 2010 by Adria in Events, Uncategorized

In February and March, we have had a great turn-out at our Monthly Tastings here at our kitchen in Tigard.  Brides, Grooms and their guests are invited to try items off their wedding buffets or plated dinners menus.  So far, they’ve been a great time for all, filled with good conversation, wedding research and GREAT food! 

If you are interested in receiving a quote for your wedding, call Katie at 503-620-8855 or email at katie@portlandcateringcompany.com.  Once a quote is in hand, we welcome you to any of our month tastings.  Come enjoy dinner on us, and let Portland Catering impress you and your fiancé with our fantastic entrees, delicious sides and mouth watering hors d’oeuvres

Tread Lightly- Help Portland Catering Go Green!

February 4th, 2010 by Adria in General Comments

NEW at Portland Catering Company: Corn Resin Forks and Knives. Want to reduce plastic waste? Biodegradable silverware- just add $.25pp and help lessen our burden on the planet! Manufactured from corn starch, a renewable resource, PLA plastics biodegradable into mostly carbon dioxide and water and are compostable in 6-12 months.  Since the resin does not contain BPA, like plastic, it will not leech chemicals into food, drinks or the soil. 

As always, our plates and bowls are biodegradable. 

 

“The resin, known as polylactic acid (PLA), has several things going for it. It’s made from a renewable resource, which means it has a big leg up—both politically and environmentally—on conventional plastic packaging, which uses an estimated 200,000 barrels of oil a day in the United States. Also, PLA is in principle compostable, meaning that it will break down under certain conditions into harmless natural compounds. That could take pressure off the nation’s mounting landfills, since plastics already take up 25 percent of dumps by volume.”
