A Pinch of Salt Catering

01/12/2024

After 10 incredible years, we are announcing the closing of A Pinch of Salt. This journey has been nothing short of amazing, and we are so grateful for the love and support you’ve shown us over the past decade.
But before we say goodbye, we’re inviting you to join us for one last event to celebrate this incredible chapter—a final “End of an Era” Rise and Dine pop-up! It’s only fitting that this special occasion will take place on Chef Qui’s 43rd birthday, making it a double celebration of the past and what’s to come.
This isn’t goodbye—it’s a new beginning. While A Pinch of Salt is coming to an end, we are excited to share that we’ll be returning as something new and different. This next chapter will reflect growth, change, and the same dedication to creativity and quality you’ve come to expect.
Join us as we close this chapter with love, gratitude, and great food. Stay tuned for event details, and let’s make this a celebration to remember!

Today, for lunch, the patients at the hospital ate the menu I put together.
One of the most intensive projects I've had to work on, I had to make sure all the nutritionals were correct for each diet.

Today, I helped the chef at Long Beach Memorial present two plates for tasting at the QBR. The "Aloha Meal", which will be offered to patients in the hospital and the "Celebration Meal," a lunch or dinner item offered to new moms, post delivery.
All in all, I had a great day!

How was your day?

I be so far in my head........I was asked to make a prep list......y'all don't even know how much of a struggle that was for me.
Do I use excel?
Am I giving this prep list to people?
Do they wanna see numbers???
WHAT DOES A PREP LIST LOOK LIKE?!?!?!?!
AAAARRRRGGGHHHHH.

So, I took a walk, got out of my head and made a prep list. One that works for me. Becuase once I leave this account, I am going to have to operate in ways that I feel comfortable in order to get things done.
Wooo chile, both the struggle, and the growth is real.
