Hi everyone. Thanks to everyone for reaching out to see how our business is doing during this challenging time. We appreciate all of you!! While most of our business has cancelled or "postponed", we continue to be encouraged by support of current and new customers. We are being creative in our marketing and searching for where we can be of assistance to our community as well. We have worked with Faith City Church to provide sandwiches, burritos and hot meals to those who are without homes. We are working with our Senior Independent Homes to provide pre-packaged home cooked hot meals for their residents who can't venture out. And, we have implemented a Take Out Menu for groups of 4 or more.
We are asking a favor.... If you would help spread the word about our "Take Out Menu" we would greatly appreciate it. If you know of businesses that are not able to "work from home" - manufacturers, call centers, etc. please pass on our website - www.tstcreativecatering.com We are able to individually package box lunches or hot meals for those essential businesses needing to be away from their families and loved ones! We are happy to deliver meals to our Emergency Personnel and health care specialists who are putting their safety on the line and working so hard for all of us!
We will continue to support wherever needed!
On a personal note, we have really enjoyed sharing our "themed" dinners with all of you and honestly - they are truly the highlight of my day! As tough as things get, I feel so lucky to be able to spend time with my family and really "get to know" them again - good and bad!!
I would ask those of you working from home (I do realize how much it can suck!) with a steady paycheck to take a minute and creatively think about how you can support businesses who are basically shut down right now and reach out. It might seem like a small gesture to ask about purchasing a gift card for future use or pre-purchase some items you were thinking about in the future, but every little bit helps.
We all have challenges in different ways and this is forcing us to rise to those challenges and come out stronger.
Our family will continue to post some fun dinner ideas (my sanity break) and please feel free to share your family ideas. Who knows - we might come out on the other side not just being family, but friends as well!!
Our heartfelt prayers to all those who are suffering from this virus.
Closing with words from one of my favorite songs.....
"We don't know what tomorrow holds, but we know WHO holds tomorrow"
May God Bless Your Day!!
To all of our previous or new customers we want to let you know that during this uncertain time, TST Creative Catering is OPEN and committed to continuing to provide great service and delicious food!
Starting Monday, March 30th, we will begin offering "Take Out" orders!
With constant changes being made, we are waiving our normal minimum size order down to 4 people to facilitate individuals and families ability to take a night, or afternoon, off from cooking or to simply get a change of pace. We can either package meals individually or family style. You can pick up meals either hot, cold or frozen to reheat at another time.
Got to our website at www.tstcreativecatering.com to take a look at our new Take Out Menu.
You can order online or call us at 651-488-0971 or email us at [email protected]. While giving us a 24-48 hour notice is ideal, we will do our best to meet your needs for orders placed in less than 24 hours. Feel free to check in and see what we have cooking that day or to find out the homemade soup of the day.
If you know companies that still have employees who are not able to "work from home" please pass our contact information along. We have a great corporate menu and offer great box lunches and can individually package all of our meals to allow for "social distancing".
We look forward to continuing to serving all of your catering needs now and in the future when we emerge from this national emergency.
As a small, family run business, we appreciate any and all opportunities to serve you.
On behalf of the TST Family – we want to THANK YOU for your support and we look forward to working with you going forward!
