We have been pleased to satisfy the appetites of gallery 1301PE artists, including dinners for Kirsten Everburg, Jorge Pardo, and Fiona Banner, Regen Projects's artists Larri Pittman and Sue Williams, and members and contributors of MAK Foundation at The Schindler House and John Lautner Foundation at the Sheats-Goldstein House.

We've been a part of intimate baby showers with high tea and cookies, tipsy and lively bridal showers with blood orange mimosas and finger foods, and wonderful, romantic weddings at private homes and parks.

Our sweet litte restaurant space has been transformed into lounge for the celebration of publishing a first novel, a hopping 40th birthday party with dj, and converted into a New York café for a film shoot. There are lots of possibilities in our space.

Here are a few menus we've created with our clients in the past. Have a look-see. We'll make a special one just for you, contact us at catering@canele-la.com or 323.666.7133 to discuss.
