The Bite:

Hosting a party, but spaced on the fact that you need to feed people? Let Back to Earth Catering take the controls. It'll create a menu based on your type of event or by season, and creatively cover everything from specialty drinks to almost-too-pretty-to-eat desserts. This month, you and your peeps can nosh on cauliflower gratin (mmm...cheese), braised fennel, or grilled rock cod pulled from the Bay that very morning. Almost all ingredients are organic and sourced locally, and once prepared, everything's loaded up into compostable containers - giving you plenty of reasons to let it do the thinking for you.

Wanna Try?

Back to Earth Catering (510-652-2000). Minimum order, $1,000.
