Food Ideas For Your Company Christmas Party
Your company Christmas party is an opportunity to bring co-workers together and boost workplace morale.
So, here’s the million dollar question: how do you ensure that your guests will have an amazing time? From our experience, a big part of the equation is a no-brainer: the food.
Of course, there are other aspects of your holiday event that matter— the venue, the guest list, and the decor— but arguably the most important feature of any successful party is the menu.
In this blog, we will briefly touch on the benefits of food truck catering for corporate events and brainstorm what holiday eats you can serve that will make your holiday party something employees talk about for years to come!
Turn to Food Truck Catering
The Los Angeles Food Truck Association has years of experience catering for corporate events and workplaces. As our name suggests, we focus on food truck catering, the more cost-effective, convenient, and customizable alternative to traditional catering.
Connecting people to Los Angeles’s finest selection of food trucks, we know that nothing makes a splash at a wedding, birthday party, and yes, a corporate holiday party like a deluxe food truck service. Frankly, after you use food truck catering, a typical platter or buffet just doesn’t quite satisfy you.
With that being said, here are some holiday food suggestions and corresponding food trucks that you can book this holiday season! (The food trucks will be local to Los Angeles, but the food recommendations will be helpful for anyone!)
Let’s get started and walk through 5 catering ideas that are sure to turn your company party up a notch!
What Should I Serve at My Holiday Party?
1. Pizza
You can’t go wrong with pizza. Aside from how uncontroversially delicious pizza is, an obvious benefit to catering this cheesy delight is that it can be made quickly and at high volume. Efficiency is an unnegotiable when you’re serving as many as hundreds or thousands of guests!
With that being said, Angelenos’ Wood Fired Pizza is an excellent option. One of Angelenos’ stand out qualities is the variety. When you’re catering for a holiday or Christmas party, options are everything! There’s no way one flavor will satisfy everyone, which is why booking with Angelenos’ is a sure way to keep everyone happy and full.
The LA pizza truck has something for everyone. Pineapple on pizza? Check. Hot and spicy pizza? Check. Something totally uniqute? Check, because this Los Angeles food truck gives you the option of creating your very own 12 inch pie with a wide offering of toppings.
2. Holiday Desserts
What brings people together like holiday desserts?
In addition to holiday cookies, a big, perhaps more unique option are festive, customized cupcakes!
If this is an option that interests you, My Delight Cupcakery is a dessert truck that will not disappoint your guests.
The My Delight Truck does more than just bake cupcakes; it handcrafts edible works of art made from only the highest quality ingredients! With the intricacy and creativity that is involved in making these desserts, you have the opportunity for holiday customization that will take your party to the next level!
3. Seasonal Drinks and Holiday Cocktails
Apple cider, egg nog, peppermint hot chocolate– what do these drinks all have in common? They suit the holiday season perfectly!
The drinks you serve matter just as much as the food, which is why you should add to the Christmas cheer by serving seasonal drinks like the ones mentioned.
4. Breakfast for Dinner
Breakfast for dinner is a childhood staple, giving people a warm and fuzzy feeling during the holidays. Who doesn’t get nostalgic over the days when they’d ask their mom to swap out their classic dinner for scrambled eggs and waffles? Book Cinnabon to recreate that same, sweet feeling.
Want to look into a different vendor? We have a whole breakfast category ready for you!
5. Comfort Food
Comfort food never misses. And since the holiday season is most definitely not about watching your figure or counting calories, let your guests treat themselves by booking Monty’s Good Burger.
The Monty’s Good Burger truck has been around Los Angeles for years. It features artisanal burgers made from locally sourced ingredients, house-made sauce, caramelized grilled onions and the plant-based Impossible™ 2.0 Patty.
Monty’s creates a cheeseburger that anyone can enjoy guilt free, and it’s an extremely inclusive option at a large event, where there may be varying dietary needs and restrictions!
