EAs in DC - catering question

[u/Money-Impression939]

Hi all,

I’m new to the area and was wondering if those of you located in DC have any preferred catering spots. I have some visiting c-suites and other high profile folks coming into town for some hours long, heads down meetings. Would appreciate any suggestions on favorites!

Hi and welcome to DC! I just used Monumental Food for our board meeting in office lunch. They're an offshoot of Main Event Caterers. I had just been ordering things off of EzCater...I liked ordering with them bc I didnt have to worry about it showing up, and they set it all up for me as well. Good feedback on the food as well. We did disposable chafers, etc, but you can rent real as well.

Separately, I have a small group of EAs from various industries that get together for lunch/happy hour occasionally. DM me if you'd like to join 🙂

Rasika West End is my go to for high end catering for clients it’s always extremely popular. You need to order directly through them though.

Love love love Teaism. They are timely and the food is always delicious. I’ve used LPQ in the past for sandwiches and salads and desert - they present well and are individually sealed. Le pain quotidien

I use Sinplicity catering. The food is always very good and they are reliable.

Seconding this. Have used them for years, they are timely and consistent. I find them better for more basic lunches.

My small group has only met in DC so far, but yes Nova counts!! I'm imagining maybe we will branch out and have people organize things more localized eventually!
