Food and Beverage Design

In-Office Workspace Meal Solutions by Food For Thought

Every person planning a party has seen intricate meals or desserts on online platforms like Pinterest and wanted to make them a reality — now you can. With Food For Thought's food and beverage design team, you can craft a unique menu with a stunning presentation that matches your event's theme.

Food Design and Catering

While it is important that your decor and theme match your event vision, so should your food. Our team takes our food and catering design seriously, ensuring everything ties together — from appetizers to desserts. We can complete your menu with almost anything you request, even a version of your grandmother's peach cobbler.

Our food design can go to the next level with our FFT Creative services. This unique team combines your menu with a coordinated, one-of-a-kind display. Your guests will leave full, happy and impressed.

Custom Signature Drinks

Craft specialty cocktails for your Chicago event to complement the food menu or add a bit of flair. For example, you can:

Complement your theme: Certain beverages fit specific themes. After all, champagne at a Gatsby 1920s party makes more sense than a craft beer. If this is your goal, we can help ensure everything fits together.
Pick your favorites: Regardless of your theme, you can choose your favorite classic cocktails for the event. Perhaps you prefer an old fashioned or espresso martini — add it to the beverage list.
Design your own: If you are feeling creative, you can design your drink for guests to try. We love to offer this service to our wedding couples who want to craft their own cocktails for the evening.
