Introduction

Request a quote DIRECTLY. As opposed to the traditional "per head" approach, we work with our clients to customize a package based on desired menu, venue and headcount. With over 25 years of culinary experience influenced by my upbringing in Argentina, our dishes range from traditional options like our famous empanadas to fusion concepts. Our goal is to provide an elevated, yet affordable, culinary experience to our customers. If you are planning a wedding, baby shower, wine tasting or any other type of social gathering, we can help! Treat yourself to refreshing and exciting options. Contact us today and find out what sets El Gaucho apart from the rest.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

I take pride in my work and pay attention to flavor pairings and presentation. After discussing options for your party, I will make a suggestion on number of dishes and quantities of each so that you have enough hut don’t end up with a lot of left overs.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I will set up a time to talk and gather information before sending anyone a quoteZ i work with a “package deal” approach instead of focusing solely on headcount. This has been proven to be more cost effective for the customer as well.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I grew up in Argentina and after the passing of my mother at an early age, I developed a love for the kitchen while learning from my grandmother. This love for the culinary arts remained with me and continued to grow as I gathered experience through the years. After working a corporate job for 16 years and having to cook for my teams for every potluck, I decided to embark in this new path and share my love of gastronomy with others.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have worked events ranging from baby showers and birthday parties to weddings and corporate events. We can customize a menu for any client.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Consider hiring a caterer like El Gaucho over a chain restaurant. You can get better quality items. Most restaurants buy frozen entres and appetizers from their suppliers and heat up or fry them.
