Cater a Valentine’s Day Feast with Modern Tortilla

valentines

Even though it seemed to take forever to arrive, the big holidays at the end of the year have come and gone, but that doesn’t give you time to rest on your laurels, no matter how great the New Year’s Eve party you threw was or how much they are still talking about the gifts you gave your friends and family. Now is time to turn your attention to the most romantic holiday of the new year, with Valentine’s Day coming up quickly and the promise of a Valentine’s feast having been made. Of course, you’re tired, reentry to real life is exhausting, and there are meetings to be held, school events to attend, and chores that always need to be done which is why your friends at Modern Tortilla are stepping up to the plate, offering our catering services for your Valentine’s feast!

The Quickest Way

Everyone knows that the quickest way to a man’s heart, to anyone’s heart, is with a truly fantastic meal, and in the great Southwest, a great meal always begins with chips and salsa and ends with tacos. Our comfort food, the food of our childhood, comes from the south—you know, just past the borders of Arizona—and whether this feast is an intimate one with just the two of you or it’s an event to be remembered, one in which you invite all of those you love the most, our tacos will be the centerpiece of your fiesta and your hosting skills will be the talk of the town!

Margaritas for Everyone

Even as you have handed the baton to us for the meal that we promise everyone will love, there are still more ways you will be able to show your love for all attending, starting with a blender, some limes, and a good bottle of tequila. Tacos and margaritas go together like cheeseburgers and beer, peanut butter and jelly, and grilled cheese and tomato soup on a chilly wintry day and when the blender starts whirring, the tacos start taco-ing, and the cheers started cheering, you will know that this Valentine’s Day feast will be one that is talked about for months to come and may even be a new tradition.

Get Your Order in Today

The holiday is almost upon us and ordering our taco carts for your Valentine’s feast is better done early!

 

Plan Your Labor Day Catering in Phoenix Today

The heat of summer is entering its last phase, the first school bell of the year has already rung, and the first three-day weekend of the school year is about to take place, making a pool party celebration at your place sound like a very awesome idea. Of course, there is a lot of work involved with party planning, from the cleaning of your house to the shopping for food and drink, and then discovering that your tried and true swimwear is trying your patience and no longer being true to your body type. It can be tiring dealing with all the details that go along with throwing a celebration, but we at Modern Tortilla can take the biggest chore off your seemingly endless list when you choose us for your Labor Day catering in Phoenix!

Think About it

Yes, the temperatures have dropped a few degrees, and the sticky heat of monsoon season has morphed back into the dry heat we are used to, but that mercury will still be lingering in the triple digit zone, and do you really want to stand in front of an open fire or dash about a sweltering kitchen? Of course, you don’t, and when you hire Modern Tortilla to cater your holiday fiesta, you can spend those extra moments lounging in the pool with friends, chatting about how wonderfully quiet your house is now that the littles are back in school, and waiting for the moment when you take your first bite of our tacos. Our taco carts are designed to fit anywhere, so if your Arizona backyard is on the smaller size, don’t worry, we only need a corner of your patio to set up shop and start feeding your favorite people the world’s favorite handheld delight!

Take It Easy

Labor Day is a holiday created to celebrate hardworking Americans by giving them a day where no labor is expected of them, and we can help take the most important of the hosting duties off your hands. Every day is Taco Tuesday with Modern Tortilla, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you and your friends, even if our idea of celebrating is feeding hungry people. It’s our passion, and we can’t wait to share all the good tacos we create, so go ahead and give us a call today at (602) 848-8823 and let’s taco about good food and fun parties!

What Would You Include in Your Perfect Taco Stand?

We all have dreams. Some of us imagine we are superstars, standing in front of a crowd of adoring fans, while others have dreams that are simpler. They dream of a having the perfect family—a few kids and a dog. They dream of traveling to Italy and enjoying a tasty lasagna in the shadow of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. And still others dream of having unlimited access to the perfect taco stand! And although we can’t help with the grander dreams, we at Modern Tortilla are dedicated to giving our customers the taco stand of their dreams; all you need is to take advantage of our catering services!

So Many Options

It is the differences between people, not their sameness, that makes this state the special place it is, and while your idea of a perfect taco stand may include cheeses of all types, your neighbor may feel that cheese is overrated and unlimited jalapeños are what it takes to make their taste buds sing! For many of us, it is all about choices. A build your own taco stand with only one type of meat, tortilla, salsa, and cheese leaves us cold. Our dream taco stand would contain at least three types of meat—perhaps chicken, pork, and beef. We would be able to choose not just between flour and corn tortillas but add in a cilantro lime corn tortilla for a flavor overload. And the toppings would consist of cheeses of varying types, fresh veggies that were locally sourced, and salsas that range in degrees of heat. Comparing the mild to a plastic kiddy pool on your back porch and the hottest to an Olympic Stadium pool is pretty much what we would love to find on our dream taco stand!

Of course, the taco stand is ours, so our dreams are obviously your reality, and when you need a caterer for your spooktackular Halloween celebration or your grandmother’s 90th birthday, or even a Southwest style Thanksgiving feast, we hope to make you taco stand dreams come true as well! And because we understand that your dreams could be different than ours, our first question will always be, “What would YOU include in your perfect taco stand?”

Menu Spotlight: Flew the Coop

If you have ever felt the pressure of making a snap decision on the meal you want from your favorite food truck (hopefully our Modern Tortilla trucks!), we feel your pain. The people standing behind you waiting for their turn to order and eat before they have to get back to work and the internal battle you feel when faced with the menu and the great options it features can make deciding ever harder! This stressful situation happens daily on the roads of the valley we live in, and because we care, this menu spotlight is for you! We’re here to share with you the details about our Phoenix taco menu items, allowing you to choose what you want BEFORE you get to the truck, and this time our in-depth expo is all about our Flew the Coop taco.

Skip the Beef

When you think of your standard taco, chances are ground beef is what comes to mind first, or for diners with a little more exotic tastes, fish tacos, and while both are excellent choices, sometimes you need a little change—a taste of something fowl, if you will! Yes, the Flew the Coop taco is a chicken tinga filled delicacy that is fast becoming one of our Modern Tortilla faves, and once you get your first taste, we have a feeling it will become one of your Phoenix taco favorites as well!

Starting with our cilantro lime corn tortilla (the basic corn tortilla has its place on the menu, but just doesn’t work with the exotic blend here), we create a chicken tinga that resembles the flavors of your youth but with a little more pizazz. Blending chicken with cinnamon, tomatillos, chipotle, and roasted bell peppers which have simmered together long enough to create a flavor explosion in your mouth, we finish it off with a spicy salsa verde takes this delicious taco to the next level of awesome! As you’ve come to expect, the ingredients in all our tacos, not just the Flew the Coop, are fresh, locally sourced, and grade A. Eating Mexican doesn’t have to mean unhealthy, and our Modern Tortilla food truck menu is all the proof you need!

Now That Your Decision Has Been Made

The choice is easy: Follow our food trucks and make your next meal healthy and delicious! You can find us in Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, Chandler, or in your own backyard when you take advantage of our catering services. Hope to see you soon!
