YOOSHI SUSHI CATERING & EVENT PRODUCTION

  • Starts at $2,500

I had my first shot at managing a sushi restaurant when I took over an empty section of the family restaurant and introduced sushi to my customers. It was a challenge that I will never regret accepting. It was fun, a lot of fun! I had the opportunity to work with some really talented and creative chefs. I quickly learned that it’s not just about having fresh fish anymore. Sushi dining has transformed into a culture. A culture built by imagination and creativity. With the help of GD and the support of my family, I took all that experience and fused it with my imagination and created Yooshi Sushi Catering and Event Production.

Zad catered the sushi at our wedding in March. His trendy presentation and quality choices of fish made it a big hit for our guests. Everyone agreed he was the highlight of our first course. Great team and easy to talk to. Looking forward to more joyous events with Zad by our side.

Had my wedding on April 2024 and I am beyond happy and blown away by the service of Gourmet Gourmet catering. The coordinators Niquey and Gabriel went above and beyond to accommodate my groom and me. They took care of everything including the set up of the other vendors such as the dj, photobooth, photographer and florist. Gourmet gourmet catering is a full service catering company that not only provided food, but also includes the rentals of tables, chairs, linens and bar service! Gourmet gourmet did not dissapoint. Their food was amazing! I still have people raving about how tender the brisket was and how savory the salmon was. The artisan bread was beautifully displayed and the cheese grazing table was the talk of the wedding. There was unexpected rain and the catering and rental crew had to accommodate for last minute changes of adding a tent and heaters which was done flawlessly. The service of the serving crew was phenomenal and I would definitely hire Gourmet gourmet for future events.

Joint Venture

  • Starts at $3,750
  • Serves La Quinta, CA for additional fees

Danny has spent the past dozen years working in kitchens around New York City and abroad. After attending the French Culinary Institute, Danny worked at Momofuku Ko, Isa, Estela, and Cabane à Sucre Au Pied de Cochon in Montreal. In 2015, Danny founded Joint Venture as a way to explore how food can bring people together beyond the confines of a restaurant’s four walls. JV is a departure from and reaction to the kitchens of his past. It's about collaborating with friends, reconnecting with nature, and working directly with farmers and producers. JV creates menus that are of the season and expressive of their surroundings. JV is ever-evolving.

Joint Venture cooked some of the best food of our lives for our wedding of 135 people last year in the Catskills. Danny somehow managed to create a menu that was comforting and indulgent, yet nourishing. I'm a musician who's played hundreds of weddings and I've never experienced a caterer close to Joint Venture's level. He also focuses on seasonal ingredients and sustainable farming practices-- even growing some of the food for the meal himself. We couldn't recommend Joint Venture more to anyone looking for a transcendent catering experience that's also down-to-earth (literally).
