Alright, Redmond, let’s talk about Cinco de Mayo. Have you noticed every year, Cinco de Mayo rolls around, and suddenly everyone thinks they’re experts on tacos and guacamole? One day you’re minding your own business, and the next, your coworker Steve—who struggles microwaving popcorn without setting off the fire alarm—is somehow declaring himself the official chef of your office fiesta.
I mean, what’s the deal with Cinco de Mayo anyway? It’s the only day when your office lunchroom looks like a carnival crossed with a supermarket salsa aisle. There’s chips everywhere, salsa jars as far as the eye can see, and Debbie from accounting keeps asking if her "homemade" guacamole—which suspiciously tastes like store-bought—is "authentic enough." Authentic enough for who, Debbie?
Now, I love a good Cinco celebration as much as the next person, but let’s be real—are we really gonna trust the catering to a guy who can’t operate a vending machine properly?
This year, why don’t we try something different? Something bold, delicious, and stress-free. How about we let West Hill Deli’s event catering in Redmond handle the food? You know, the professionals. Because nothing says "fiesta" like fresh, bold flavors and not having to fake-smile while choking down another dry quesadilla.
Here’s a thought: when did office events turn into amateur cooking competitions? Have you ever walked into a potluck and thought, “Oh, thank goodness. Someone brought cold chicken again. What a treat.” Of course not! We’ve all been there, choking down mystery dishes, trying not to offend Janet from marketing whose casserole looks suspiciously radioactive.
If you’re hosting a Cinco de Mayo event, let’s leave the cooking to people who do it for a living. Here’s why catering your Cinco event is smarter than Steve’s homemade salsa:
Let’s face it—party planning is stressful enough without worrying if your boss will enjoy a lukewarm burrito bowl. When you cater, you remove the guesswork. You don’t worry about dishes, setup, or what on Earth Steve put in that dip.
Cinco de Mayo should be a celebration of deliciousness—not regret. Imagine a party where everyone is genuinely excited about what’s on their plate. When you cater, you get fresh, flavorful dishes that people actually enjoy eating—no fake smiles required.
You know what makes people leave a party early? Bad food. Serve bland, soggy tacos, and suddenly everyone “has another event to get to.” Serve great food? People are pulling up chairs, telling stories, and—heaven forbid—actually having a good time.
Now, West Hill Deli isn’t your standard taco-truck-and-call-it-a-day situation. No, no—we’re bringing Cinco de Mayo flavors with a delicious twist. Picture it: vibrant, bold dishes that fuse traditional and Filipino-inspired flavors, crafted from fresh Northwest ingredients. It’s like your typical Cinco de Mayo, but with personality.
Let’s break down this tasty menu that’ll make your Redmond event the talk of the town:
You gotta have something to snack on while you wonder why the office playlist keeps skipping.
Lumpia (Filipino Spring Rolls): Crispy, savory, and irresistible. Sure, they’re not traditional tacos, but who says Cinco de Mayo can’t go global?
Garlic Shrimp Skewers: Light, flavorful, and a definite upgrade from mystery cheese cubes.
Mini Pancit Noodle Cups: Portable and delicious, perfect for mingling without dropping noodles everywhere.
Forget the soggy burritos. This year, bring the heat—literally and figuratively.
Adobo Fried Rice & Eggs: This isn’t your basic fried rice. This is garlic-infused, savory goodness with a runny egg on top. Cinco de Mayo breakfast-for-lunch, anyone?
Crispy Pork Belly Tacos: Oh yeah, we went there. Tender pork belly, crispy skin, wrapped in tortillas with fresh toppings. It’s like tacos went to flavor school and graduated with honors.
Chicken Afritada Tostadas: Savory chicken stewed in a tomato-based sauce, served crispy on a tostada. Your guests might forget this is technically a work event.
Because sides shouldn’t just fill space on a plate. They should be delicious too.
Garlic Green Beans: Bright, flavorful, and the perfect break from endless tortilla chips.
Ube Mashed Sweet Potatoes: Sweet, creamy, purple—trust me, no one will miss the refried beans.
Steamed Jasmine Rice: Because carbs are still your friends on Cinco de Mayo.
No fiesta is complete without sweets. But seriously, can we stop with the dry cookies already?
Ube Pancakes with Coconut Syrup: Fluffy pancakes with sweet coconut syrup—dessert brunch done right.
Mini Buko Pandan Cups: A tropical, creamy treat that’ll make you forget Debbie’s questionable “guacamole.”
Festive Cookie Platter: Colorful, tasty, and way better than the ones Steve’s mom dropped off last year.
