Well, it’s official. The temperatures finally dropped below scorching, the last of the trick-or-treaters have returned to their homes, and the big three end of the year holidays are staring us straight in the face, daring us to get it all done while spending more time with the family and with no extra hours to be had. The parties we have in November and December are the best part of the season, and if you are wondering how you are going to manage to do everything AND throw the fiesta of the year, we have created this list of five reasons why using catering with Modern Tortilla can help you have the perfect event without the hassle!

Reason #5: The Time Savings Is Magical

Every party revolves around the food being served, which means as you are working a full eight hour (or more!) day, rushing around shopping for Christmas presents, holiday décor, and all your normal necessities, you also need to be planning out a menu, purchasing the food, and preparing enough to feed a small village, all in the same 24 hours of each day that are already filled with too much work, chores, activities, and too few hours of sleep. But when you choose Modern Tortilla to cater your big event, you have cut out a lion’s share of the work involved, leaving you free to handle the millions of other details involved in party planning!

Reason #4: Stress Less, Celebrate More

This is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, but you have so much on your plate that you probably don’t enjoy it much and are feeling stressed, harried, and exhausted. We can’t help you with the gift selections or the cleaning of your house, but we can take the stress of creating a meal that even the most finickiest of diners will eat off your hands, and with that major stress eliminated, you may find yourself enjoying the holidays a little more than normal. Stress is the second leading cause of illness, and who wants to be sick and stuck inside the house when outside is FINALLY cool and comfortable?

Reason #3: You Know Us and You Trust Us

Yes, there are plenty of caterers in this big desert community we have chosen to be our home, but do you know any of them in the way you know Modern Tortilla? You have been enjoying spicy tacos and burritos from our colorful food trucks for more years than you can remember, your taste buds have jumped with joy when attending other events in which our taco carts have made a surprise appearance, and you know that we offer good food that costs less. All of this leads up to an event filled with good taste, happy guests, and perhaps a few more dollars left in your bank account, dollars that can be put towards all those presents you still have left to buy! Trusting that the company you choose to feed your family can only make this event even more successful, and we are happy to be a part of the good times.

Reason #2: Hello, Have Your Forgotten Our Tacos?

The food we serve is the food of your childhood, and as the sultry scent of tacos wafts through your event venue, how can you not feel happy? Feeding hungry people is our passion, and even though tacos are a simple dish, easily prepared and just as easily devoured, we put our all into the creation of each one we make. Because we use locally sourced ingredients, parents can feel good about sharing them with their children, and because we love when we hear the sentence “I am so full, but I just can’t stop eating these tacos!” (We are addicted to the praise!) we pay attention to every detail of building the perfect taco.

Reason #1: You Deserve to Have Fun, Too

The host or hostess of every party rarely gets to just sit and enjoy the result of all their efforts, especially if they are in charge of food prep, but when you choose a caterer, it takes a huge burden off your shoulders. There will still be plenty to do leading up to the party, but when the music starts and the first guests begin to arrive, you, the host or hostess, can now take a breath and begin the serious business of having fun.

Will you still flit from guest to guest, ensuring that everyone is having a fabulous time? (And how can they not? They are eating tacos!) You won’t have to jump up to grab a new tray of whatever to bring out, and you won’t have to spend so much of your time in the kitchen, cooking, cleaning, and losing all feeling in your feet from standing too long. Instead, you will get to have fun, simply because you chose Modern Tortilla to cater your event. Give us a call today!

 

Let Modern Tortilla Cater Your Wedding Party

Some of the best weddings we have ever attended were the ones without pretension or rules. No choosing a side to sit on, no spending a small fortune on clothing that will only be worn once, and best of all, the food that was served was real food that tasted really good—you know what we mean, food like the spicy tacos and burritos we serve at Modern Tortilla! If there are wedding bells in your future and you are on the fence between formal and fun, choose Modern Tortilla for your wedding catering needs and the decision will be made.

Sharing Tacos in Sickness and in Health

When you face the crowd as Mr. and Mrs. for the very first time, or Mr. and Mr., or any variation thereof, the vows you just spoke may take on new meaning, especially as the hard part is over and the hunger pangs are making themselves noticed. We have all been there, working hard to fit in our tux or gown, choosing our calories carefully and watching the numbers on the scale take a slow descent. But now the I do’s have been spoken and the party is about to begin, and those tacos? They are calling out your new name, as well as the names of every guest in your wedding party, and even as there will be many more fun moments to be had, first, there will be tacos!

Let’s Taco About Forever

As you sit at the head table, your friends and family sharing in the love you feel right now, the rest of your life will shine as brightly as the smile on your faces. Forever is such a beautiful word and we hope that Modern Tortilla can celebrate the moments in your future that will never be forgotten, but for tonight, all that matters is your love, your family, and tacos. The great thing about tacos is that they can be eaten quickly, disappearing between conversations, toasts, and the chicken dance that we still don’t know why has become a wedding tradition. The one tradition we can get behind, however, is that of gathering with family in celebration of the happiest day of your life, made happier because, well, there are tacos as well!

Your List Is Long

Within seconds of saying yes, the lists you began seemed to grow longer each day, but choosing Modern Tortilla to cater your wedding party will mark one item off very deliciously. Give us a call or contact us online today!

Get Safe and Delicious Catering from Modern Tortilla for Your Event

As pandemic restrictions begin to lighten and our lives slowly return to a semblance of normalcy, our minds are once again turning towards resuming the events and activities we were unable to participate in just a few months ago. Birthdays and anniversaries are belatedly being celebrated, and holidays are once more starting to look like they once did as we gather with family and friends we haven’t seen in so long. And although we love them dearly, we all have tired of cooking, something we did far too much of during the past few months, and a catering service is definitely on your mind. But your health and safety are a priority, and you have to wonder if a caterer cares about your family’s well-being as much as you do? We at Modern Tortilla are here to respond with a loud and clear YES and a reminder that we consider our guests our family, and as such we follow the guidelines listed below!

Your Safety and Satisfaction is Our Top Priority

You truly are our family, and we enjoy making your safety and satisfaction our top priority as we undertake added precautions to ensure both. Even our food truck employees follow the safety guidelines, so if you have been considering hiring one of our food trucks for your special event, don’t stop! Every employee understands the importance of gloves and masks, which they wear at all times during your event or anytime they are working on preparing your dream menu. Although it may seem strange giving your orders to masked employees, when you taste all the delicious food we have prepared for you, all traces of unusual will disappear!

Preparing healthy, satisfying, and mouthwatering meals is our goal, and as our guests are constantly informing us, we continue to succeed, even in times of uncertainty! Our burritos are filling and spicy, our desserts are sweet and wonderful, and our tacos are the stuff dreams are made of! Close your eyes and remember the best taco you have ever tasted. Was it savory and spicy enough to make your tongue tingle? Were the cooked ingredients hot enough and the cold toppings cool enough? Did the shell crunch appropriately (when choosing hard tacos) or did the soft tortilla melt in your mouth? Now that you have considered all of that, open your eyes and take a bite of our Modern Tortilla taco and prepare for your taste buds to explode with happiness. These tacos are our masterpieces and knowing that they are going to be an integral part of your special day makes us happy as well!
