Host a Hassle-Free Fall Party with Modern Tortilla Catering

Only desert dwellers can understand the exhilaration felt when the temperatures start to drop, even if it is just a few degrees, because we know that we have survived the worst and fall is coming. And with this exhilaration comes the urge to celebrate, inviting friends, family, and neighbors over for a seasonal soiree of swimming, playing music, and having a cool time—until we have to cook. Desert dwellers often know that just because the calendar says fall, the sun will still shine bright and hot, and that’s when the ones in the know turn to Modern Tortilla with our Phoenix catering services helping to provide a delicious and hassle-free fall extravaganza!

New Traditions with an Old Classic

A typical fall menu is often one that features chili, stew, and something casserole-ish, all of which are very tasty, but this is the Southwest, and we want tacos, burritos, and quesadillas. These classic meals satisfy our need for spice, and because you and all your guests probably already have tasted ours, you can relax and let the shindig shine. Chips and salsa have been, and always will be, your favorite obsession, and even as you are saying no to adding fire to your fall party, the heat in your mouth is also something to be celebrated.

Food Trucks and Taco Carts Make Us Happy

Our passion here at Modern Tortilla is tacos, and we offer multiple ways of getting those tacos to hungry people all over the valley. As impressive as it can be walking up to your neighbor’s house and seeing one of our large and colorful food trucks sitting in the driveway, the reality is not everyone has the space for a big truck, but that’s ok. That doesn’t mean your dreams for tacos and tequila have to come to an end, not when our taco carts have the ability to fit into small spaces, ensuring your taste buds will cheer. We can bring the tacos, you provide the tequila, and there you have it, the perfect recipe for a party that no one will forget!

Hang in There!

Better days are coming, and by better we mean cooler, even as we all know that the real cooldown doesn’t begin until around Halloween. But no matter when you are throwing your fall bash, utilizing our Modern Tortilla Phoenix catering services will make you the coolest host in the west. Give us a call today!
