The Tangerine Food Company 

5.0

  • Starts at $600
  • Serves West Des Moines, IA

The Tangerine Food Company offers outstanding catering services to the Des Moines community. We strive to make your event special and memorable. Our food is freshly prepared and sourced locally from farmers markets and community producers. Your event will be special from the first delicious cocktail to the last bite of sumptuous dessert. Cherry and Susan share a passion for fresh food, well-prepared and beautifully displayed. They have been preparing food together socially and professionally for almost two decades.

We booked Tangerine Food Co. from the recommendation of a wedding planner in the area, because we don’t live there and aren’t able to taste test anything. We were absolutely thrilled with our food, which were hors-d’œuvres during cocktail hour, a large buffet dinner, and a dessert table as well as our cutting cake. Everything was fresh, hot and DELICIOUS! We had so many guests comment on how good the food was, which doesn’t always happen at weddings. Pernilla the owner was wonderful to work with, super communicative, and an all around lovely person. They also were able to accommodate a few different food allergies because I can’t eat gluten and even had options for vegetarian entrees. If I had to do it all over again, Tangerine would be my first vendor booked. 11/10 HIGHLY recommend.

Awarded Best of Zola
My company hired Late To The Lake for a special corporate event. Not only did they work hard to do it on short notice, but the food was spectacular! I've never seen food presented so beautifully! Her staff was very professional and attentive to our needs. I would recommend LTTL to anyone who wanted to make an impression on their clients at any type of event. These days, it's hard to find a business that puts so much thought and care into their service. Late To The Lake exceeds that expectation and then some! Thanks for making our evening so special!

Bartender 608 Intoxicologists & Cocktail Caterers, LLC. 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves West Des Moines, IA for additional fees

Since 1995, China Moon has bartended for dive bars, house parties, underground events, celebrity bashes, and fine dining establishments in NYC and the Midwest. She’s an old soul with a heart for gardening, reading, music, dancing, animals, and, when it’s safe again, putting her passport back in the rotation. She holds a degree in Hotel & Restaurant business management, was the Private Dining & Event Manager at The Edgewater Hotel from 2016-to 2018, and is a member of the Beta Beta Psi chapter of Phi Theta Kappa. China Moon is an eager reader (and dotes on Stephen King and Dean Koontz novels.) She loves aged Brugal Rum on the rocks with lime.

As a wedding venue, we have been fortunate enough to see most, if not all, of the mobile bartending service companies in the Madison area. Bartender608, China Moon (owner) and her staff are the best to work with. They are very responsive to us, as a hosting venue, and their clients who are typically the bride and groom. China and her team arrive on time, or early, have a very professional set up and always dress the part. Bartender608’s service is always efficient regardless of the size of your group. If we were hosting our own wedding or party, Bartender608 would be an easy and immediate Yes Please!

Hello! My name is Allie and I’m the sole owner of The Hangry Lady. I have a 2 year A.S Degree towards dietetics and a Culinary Degree from Kirkwood Community College. After graduating I went on to be Chef de Cuisine at Caucho for 2 years, during this time I was named one of the ‘40 women to watch’ by the Iowa Restaurant Association. I then went on to be Executive Chef at Popoli for almost 1 year before closing due to Covid. This is when I decided to take a chance on myself and opened up the business I had always dreamed of. Our mission is to serve colorful, creative and delicious food, with high quality service to our customers.

The Hangry Lady was amazing we are so glad we went with them for our cocktail hour food. Their communication throughout the planning process was quick and thorough, making it easy to coordinate all the details. On the day of, the quality of their work was exceptional - the food was both beautiful and delicious, with lots of variety- we were able to special order unique cheeses and pate. We received so many compliments on the meat and cheese table. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a customizable grazing board.
