We added our Taste & Company “insider secrets” to festive South of the Border “Street Corn” that everyone loves. First up are Mexican or lemon pestos, each adding two twists to the corn and even more juiciness.
We added the “shucked” version for our guests who prefer their corn as a sunny, sublime side dish.
And for those who love a spicy version with just the perfect amount of heat to enhance the corn, we created our a wildly popular Melissa’s Ground Green Hatch Chile chili powder aioli sauce.
We’d love to create a special party for you. For an appointment to plan your party please DM or email us:

Keep the feeling of summer going with Taste & Company’s guest-guaranteed beach dishes! They can be adapted to indoor or outdoor dining for your party or get together!
Lobster Rolls with Lemon Aioli
Nothing says Cape Cod summer like luxurious lobster rolls. Taste and Company cracks fresh lobster for our rolls. The moist tender meat is chopped up for even, easy eating. Our secret is adding lemon aioli or lemon pesto made from scratch, green onion and parsley. Then all the ingredients are layered into a buttery, toasted bun.
Fun fact: did you know that lobster was so abundant in colonial times that homeowners used it as fertilizer for their lawns?

Let’s stay in a French mood after the Olympics with charcuterie boards.
French chefs created the art of charcuterie and cheese boards in the 15th century to use up meats. The idea has expanded to scrumptious, artistic non-meat boards now, too.
Charcuterie is simply a fancy word for seasoned, cured meat. It actually translates to flesh cooked.” The result? A delicious work of art made with a perfectly preserved product.
Let us create a classic or modern version for you. Information is @tasteandcompany

The elevated classic birthday party dessert at this Taste and Company party was a flower cupcake “tree” made by our own Pastry Chef, Nicole, in Susan’s favorite colors. (Nicole is at the end of the reel appropriately in front of a painting)
And a classic little birthday cake goes along with it (and have a candle to blow out)
Guests of all ages loved the very personal, happy party at the beach with the ocean view (even with on and off again light rain). Marion Davies, the original owner and party girl, must be smiling somewhere.

It’s the little, added touches that make the dishes at Taste & Company so special. On the Caesar salad are “torn” croutons made of focaccia bread, for example. Every table came back for seconds and more. More than double the amount is prepared, just in case, and in this case it was all gone! Just look.
Meanwhile guests table-hopped and gathered on the comfy furniture brought on for the occasion.

Very often the simplest dishes become the most challenging to prepare. This is often the case with catered parties.
Taste & Company’s visually stunning array of elevated classics for such a very special birthday party for a very special artist, friend and relative. The universally appealing dishes with the freshest of raw ingredients were carefully assembled on site. The warm dishes were cooked on site. It makes such a difference!
The guests loved it and so did the staff.

First up is the passionate Regina at Design with Zaffre. Regina creates from inspiration and as being a long-time party coordinator to see how decor evolved and where it can go.
The theme of the evening at the Town and Customer appreciation evening seems to be “elevated comfort,” matching the one trending in cuisine, this one making a fanciful, cutting-edge ambiance natural and inviting.
Avant garde shapes for the dishes and flatware. Live flowers on the plates and a garden growing right along the table.

Thank you and cheers right back to the incomparable, Town and Country Rentals for inviting us to your Customer Appreciation party!
A special toast on the latest glass to founding (recently retired) owner and always the nicest guy in the room, Richard Logursio.
His staff learned well and even the now merged company staff with Signature has his passion. This evening they turned a cavernous airplane hanger in into this spiffy, upbeat, spring garden!
So much fun and energy seeing old friends and making new ones. Welcome to the party! See more information:
