Events and Experiences from Not Hungry Catering
A lovely seasonal meal for the 4th
We had a client put together a lovely seasonal mix
of bites and a dinner buffet for a day with family
and friends on the 4th in Malibu.
Executive Media Retreat!
This all day retreat felt like an oasis for the
guests of this executive offsite! Hosted at a home
in Malibu, these guests enjoyed breakfast, lunch,
snacks, and a plated dinner with the Not Hungry Team.
Guests felt spoiled over looking this beautiful
view of the Malibu mountains and hints of the
Pacific, all while getting fueling up with
delicious food!
Lunch at Cross Campus
Lunch at a sales event can be a challenging
proposition. It's a balance of ensuring that
people are cared for while also making sure that
the food is attractive and holds up until the
right spot in the conversation.
Film Premiere of Little Women
We had the pleasure of putting together a
sunflower themed staff uniform and menu for a film
premiere of Little Women at Harmony Gold.
A Beautiful Summer's Evening Dinner
We had a client host an outdoor dinner to
celebrate the amazing women involved with their
company. Set in a backyard in a home in Bel Air,
it was the quintessential beautiful summer evening
in a gorgeous spot.
Our approach was to provide a dinner display that
enabled a wide range of selections that were easy
and nourishing to eat. The display itself
reflected the garden space: open, full of color,
lots of accents.
Beautiful Baby Shower @ Triunfo Creek
Triunfo Creek Vineyard offered a beautiful setting for this picturesque baby shower! The lush background following spring rains made for a wonderful setting to a special day.
Special Experience + Brunch Display at Trina Turk
We had a client who was hosting a product showcase
for their high end clientele in Manhattan Beach's
Trina Turk store and wanted a brunch setup for
them to munch on while they were participating.
In designing the menu, we put together beautiful
options that would be a fit with the client and
Trina Turk look as well as being able to hold on
the floor for the 2 hour event. Everyone was
thrilled and…
Elegant Plated University Law Dinner
We created a beautiful plated menu for an intimate
group of university alumni members. This was held
at a professors home and consisted of 3 courses
ending with a delicate dessert trio and filled
with delicious cocktails!
A Golden Wedding Anniversary with a Touch of Southern Charm
Early in 2014 our client, Craig, called us eager
to plan an incredible party to celebrate his
parents' 50 years of marriage, but not quite
knowing where to start. He wanted a classic
American BBQ with a Southern twist while
maintaining the elegance the occasion required.
The event began by the pool where guests, many of
them original wedding guests, enjoyed some of the
family's favorite signature cocktails ("Pink
Lemonade", Whiskey Sour, Gin Fizz, Margarita…
Summer Camp Themed Menu
We love themed menus at Not Hungry . We got a chance to do a summer camp themed menu and had a lot of fun with rustic elements and nostalgia brought into a beautiful format.

Malibu Canyon Backyard Wedding
There's nothing quite as intimate as a private
home wedding. We recently catered a 50 person
wedding in the backyard of a beautiful home in
Malibu Canyon. To say that this wedding was

as the delicate pink and creme floral
arrangements, Not Hungry handled the rentals and
catering needs for all 50 guests.

Halloween Catering 2014: Special Spooky Treats & Sweets Available for Your Guys and Ghouls
Halloween is one of my most favorite holidays! The
costumes, the decorations, the spooky spirits,
and, of course, the food! I love the idea of going
all out and creating some delicious and frightful
treats for guests at parties! Last year, we really
had a lot of fun for one of our events where we
created "spooky" bites that not only looked fun
but also packed a lot of flavor. We created an
assortment of…
Corporate Client Tasting
Here at Not Hungry Catering, we believe it is
important to build close relationships with
corporate clients. We understand that each company
has their own unique catering needs, and it is up
to us to show that we can provide the right
service as well as delicious food! Part of
understanding how to do this is to understand the
specific catering needs of the client, including
their building/ facilities, their employee needs/
wants, their goals…

and efficient in the space to ensure set up went

any space we work in is to make sure we go in with
the know-how and forethought to…
Intimate Backyard Home Wedding in Woodland Hills
Towards the end of last year, we had the sincere
pleasure of catering the wedding of our clients Ed

an intimate and beautiful fall-themed wedding with
seasonal decor and a menu to match. The setting
was defined by rustic elements such as dark brown
wooden chairs, crates for the desert displays, and
autumn wildflowers for the centerpieces. Orange,
yellow, and brown took center stage as…
Bridal Shower Tea Party in Santa Monica
It's sometimes hard to believe, but it's already
