In business since 1984, Urban Source covers the gamut, from chic cocktail parties to small dinners to full-on fabulous weddings (they specialize in corporate and large events). At a recent poolside cocktail party, miniature portobello burgers topped with caramelized onion were served as a meat-free alternative to grilled lamb chops flavoured with rosemary and garlic. For a sit-down dinner, a typical menu might start with slices of poached lobster tail garnished with champagne sabayon or golden caviar; followed by rouelles of basil-stuffed Atlantic salmon wrapped in leeks and accompanied by roasted peppers and tomatoes; and rounded off by chocolate tuiles filled with fruit. The company covers a large territory—Urban Source is quite often hired to cater events in cottage country.
How much:
cocktails $15–$45 per person; buffet dinner $25–$48; sit-down dinner $55–$85, plus wait staff and chef’s charges
