Filipino-Owned Party Caterers in the Triangle
Food Catering
First, if you are considering food catering, then it probably means you aren't interested in doing the cooking yourself for dinner at the birthday, holiday, you-name-it party. And who can blame you, you're doing ALL the planning!
Of course, you can always ask your Tita to make her famous Kaldereta, Pork Sisig, and Adobo (even at a moment's notice, I'm sure she wouldn't mind...). But then again, you probably bug her all the time and maybe you just want to show that you can throw a big party and want her to feel like a guest and not a member of the planning committee!
So, now that we've gone through the usual suspects for your favorites, let's get to the recommendations! For food catering, you can order all the Filipino favorites from Pork-n-Spoon. They serve all kinds of different dishes, from classics like lumpia and pork belly skewers to traditional Filipino dishes like pancit bihon, sinigang (my FAVORITE), and Adobo. Located in Burlington, NC, they aren't too far from you in the Triangle! They also serve all the silogs, in case you're having an early party!
And if you aren't interested in catering right now, but just want a meal, feel free to swing by the Burlington Food Hall in Burlington, NC where you can find them and many other cuisines! It's a great place to dine in with friends who like different flavors and foods while still getting the Filipino dishes you're craving.
Dessert Catering
Now that we've established your Tita isn't able to prepare that Ube Kalamay and you forgot to get clay pots for Bibingka, I'd like to introduce you to a new Filipino-Woman-Owned bakery in Willow Spring, NC: Secret Ingredient Bakery
She takes classic flavors like ube and blends them into desserts for creations that not only look good but taste phenomenal, like her Ube Macarons with Coconut Creme Filling
She's able to accommodate large groups as everything is made to order. So, if you're hosting a large group with different tastes, Secret Ingredient Bakery can help you with gourmet cupcakes, premium cookies (including macarons), and custom cakes as well.
Photography
If you would like to capture the moment and don't want to have your phone out the whole time, or, if you're like me and worry that your phone will die at the most inopportune time, you can hire a photographer! Especially if this is for a wedding, 7th birthday, or other very special event, it's important to have a professional there to capture the moment. That's where Glennboi Photography comes in!
He can do it all, from scenic aerial views to sports (proof he can get action shots) to artistic displays and everything in between, his impressive portfolio covers an array of different scenes. This of course includes parties!
Not to mention Glennboi Photography also boasts a Photo Booth that you can rent for your party for guests to take photos together and print off to take home with them. This way they can capture that memory for a lifetime!
