Cocktail Hour

Event Description: LadyFingers catered a unique Cocktail Hour in the Project RE  section at Constuction Junction for a group of environmental stewardship officials attending a national meeting in Pittsburgh. ASTSWMO , a group that promotes waste and materials management, toured the building reuse center and then held a fun social hour. Attendees brought a beverage that represented their state and LadyFingers did the rest! In addition to the beautiful Artisanal Cheese and Fruit Station, LadyFingers served passed hors d’oeuvres to the folks as they enjoyed their evening in Pittsburgh.

“I came across LadyFingers Catering online and I just knew that we had to have them cater our cocktail hour at Construction Junction. They were great to work with as they listened, and they created a menu that was fun and easy to eat.  There wasn’t any food left, which is always a good sign of a great caterer!  If you are looking for a great caterer for your event in Pittsburgh, look no further than LadyFingers”. – Dania R. (a catering reference is available from this Washington, DC client)
