Gourmet Celebrations

The coronavirus pandemic forced us to temporarily close for the first time in our three-decades. Now, we’re thrilled to announce we’re back: Our phone lines are open, and our team is ready to help you discover the joy of hosting — safely!

While we return with our same sterling standards for service, freshness and flavor, a few things have changed that we want you to know about:
1) Your health and safety is our top priority. We are individually packaging hot and cold food, so each guest receives contact-less meal. And we’re expanding our range of boxed breakfasts, lunches, snacks and dinners.
2) COVID-free, safe environment: We are following all CDC guidelines to the letter. Staff will wear protective gear and have their temperature taken at the start of the workday. We’ve placed disinfection stations throughout our facility, and all vehicles will be disinfected after all deliveries are made.
We’re thrilled to be back in business and to join our partners, friends and clients as we return to creating, cooking and catering to your every hospitality need.

Meet Elmer Huezo. One of our guiding lights, a leader in the kitchen, and a 25-year veteran with Air Gourmet and Gourmet Celebrations.
Our Operations Manager is a university-trained culinary expert. Every beautiful order, every dish that leaves our kitchens, bears the Elmer Huezo seal of quality.
Elmer is truly a "Master Behind the Menu." We're devoting this post not only to his brilliant way with food, but to the many ways he's helped us become the companies we are today. Whether in our Culver City kitchens, on location across the West at cutting edge events or high end affairs, training new team members, or working hand-in-hand with our partners in the world of private aviation, Elmer is unfailingly warm, kind, insightful and positive.
Have an event coming up? Let us know. We'll be happy to set up a complimentary tasting so you'll be able to put Elmer, and our entire team, to the taste test.
