Winter in Redmond hits you in a very specific way. One day you're fine—walking around, drinking your overpriced latte like life’s normal—and the next day you’re shivering, questioning every decision you’ve ever made, and wondering why you live in a place where the sky stays the same color for four straight months. It’s cold, it’s grey, and somehow the sun has been on its lunch break since November.
And during these cold, gloomy winter days, lunch stops being a meal and starts being survival. You don’t want salad. You don’t want something “light.” You don’t want to pretend you’re trying to be healthy. You want warmth. You want heaviness. You want your food to feel like a thick blanket wrapped around your soul, telling you everything’s going to be okay even when your fingers are numb.
That’s where West Hill Deli’s luncheon catering in Redmond steps up. Because when the temperature drops, your lunch needs to rise to the occasion. Comfort food is not optional—it’s mandatory. And we bring it in with flavor, personality, warmth, and a whole lot of food that makes winter suck a little less.
You ever try eating a cold sandwich on a freezing day? It’s terrible. It’s like chewing sadness. Your body just shuts down and says, “No, absolutely not. Try again.” There’s something about winter that demands hot, hearty meals—the kind that steam up your glasses and slow down your whole day in the best possible way.
And Redmond winters? Oh, they don’t mess around. Rain, wind, the occasional snowstorm that the city pretends it wasn’t warned about—it all creates the perfect environment for comfort food cravings. Which means your team, your clients, your coworkers, your event guests—they’re hungry. And not just hungry—winter hungry.
That’s a real thing. Winter hunger is powerful. It’s dramatic. It convinces you that you need three servings of something hot and delicious just to stay alive. So instead of giving people some sad corporate lunch that tastes like cardboard, give them food that actually warms them up from the inside out.
Let’s break down what we mean by “cozy.” We’re not talking about the kind of comfort food that makes you regret every choice you’ve ever made. We mean food that’s hearty but fresh, flavorful but balanced, satisfying but not coma-inducing. West Hill Deli brings that perfect mix.
You know how your car needs a few minutes in the morning to get going? Your stomach does too. Start your luncheon with appetizers that get people thawed out and ready to function again:
Lumpia (Filipino Spring Rolls): Crispy, hot, savory rolls that make you forget for a moment that it’s raining sideways outside.
Garlic Shrimp Skewers: Juicy, bold, and perfectly warming—your office will smell amazing, and productivity will skyrocket.
Mini Pancit Cups: Warm noodles in perfect little cups. Cozy, comforting, and much better than anything that comes wrapped in plastic.
Here’s where the real comfort kicks in. These are meals built for winter days when everyone’s chilled, cranky, and one lukewarm lunch away from calling it quits:
Adobo Fried Rice & Eggs: Hot, garlicky, flavorful, and absolutely perfect for gloomy Redmond afternoons.
Crispy Pork Belly: When that winter wind hits you like a slap in the face, nothing helps more than crunchy, juicy pork belly.
Chicken Afritada: Chicken simmered in a rich tomato sauce with hearty vegetables—like stew, but better.
Beef Caldereta: Slow-cooked beef stew that tastes like warmth, comfort, and temporary relief from seasonal depression.
Some places treat sides like an afterthought. Not here. Comfort food is all about the details.
Garlic Green Beans: Warm, bright, flavorful—fresh veggies that don’t make you sad.
Ube Mashed Sweet Potatoes: Creamy, sweet, purple, and deeply comforting.
Steamed Jasmine Rice: Light, warm, and perfect for soaking up sauces on cold days.
Let’s be honest—you need dessert in the winter. It’s practically a survival tactic.
Ube Pancakes with Coconut Syrup: Sweet, colorful, cozy—like breakfast and dessert got together for a winter love story.
Mini Buko Pandan Cups: Cool but refreshing after a warm meal, like stepping into heated indoor air from the cold.
Custom Cookies: Because winter demands cookies. Everyone knows this.
Whether you’re planning a team lunch, a client meeting, or a company-wide event, winter catering takes everything to another level. People appreciate hot meals more when it’s cold outside. They eat more, smile more, stay longer, and maybe even tolerate each other a little better.
Office Lunches: Lift the mood and boost morale instantly.
Corporate Meetings: Impress clients with food that actually feels intentional.
Team Building Events: Warm meals make cold days feel less miserable.
Community Gatherings: Feed everyone without losing your mind.
In a city where the winter weather feels like it’s actively trying to stop you from going outside, having great catering comes as a relief. Warm food changes the whole energy of a room.
