Not every event needs a full production, but that doesn’t mean it should skimp on flavor.
Taste Buds Required offers drop-off catering that’s bold, beautiful, and packed with the Caribbean flavor you know and love. No chefs on-site, no styling setup: just hot, delicious food delivered straight to your door, ready to serve.

Who It’s For
Drop-off catering is perfect for:
Office lunches + corporate meetings
Family gatherings + milestone birthdays
Weekday events or intimate celebrations
Bridal and baby showers
Rehearsal dinners + farewell brunches
If your event doesn’t need chafing dishes, on-site staff, or a styled table, drop-off is your stress-free solution.
