can anyone recommend somewhere to get some simple catering done? we are having a small party @ 20 people (including kids). i want a fruit tray and a cheese tray, including some artisan bread. i have had many trays from grocery store delis and they have all been dried out cubes of cheese and piles of grapes. i don't want to break the bank on this. i am sure there is a small deli out there that probably does simple trays with great products. if all else fails, i will probably just go with thyme and again, though i find their prices have gotten really high.

thanks.

btw, i did do a search on here, but didn't come up with much. it might just be my searching skills...

Melrose Grocery - give Helen a call and see what she can do. Not sure if she does those types of things or not but I bet she could do something really nice at a really good price. I'd ask about her mini fatayas (mini pizzas). But there is lots of stuff she does. I've bought her stuff for a few parties this summer and it's really reasonably priced, and always a huge hit. I've never pre-ordered though - just got stuff she's already had in stock. Like regular Fataya cut in 8 slices to make small finger-food sized pieces, then her sweets cut into smaller pieces by me at home, and so forth.

p.s. the mini and full sized fataya are huge hits with my kids.

I second+ Zymurgist's recommendation above for deliciousness. Big time.
And would also recommend La Bottega, as they do great coldcut/cheese/bread/fruit/dessert platters.
