At Catering By Design, we believe food can bring people together, create connections, and make a difference. We are proud to give back to our Philadelphia community by donating 125 meals to Mother Of Mercy House, an organization dedicated to providing support, care, and hope to neighbors in need throughout Kensington.
Those in the community affected by homelessness and substance use disorder enjoyed a comforting meal prepared by our culinary team. It’s a simple way for C*D to share what we love most… good food, with a community that does so much to care for its neighbors. 💛

We stepped up to the plate for the Capital One Café in Rittenhouse for a MLB All-Star Reception, creating a one-of-a-kind culinary experience that was just as fun as the festivities.
Our Executive Chef knocked it out of the park with custom-designed hors d'oeuvre displays... from a baseball bat serving our Cheez-It bites, Crab Ci**rs served in ashtrays with old bay ember & chive ash for that realistic look, to a home plate featuring our Hot Honey Chicken. Guests also enjoyed our Bases Loaded Nachos served in mini helmets, the Bullpen Grill featuring the Golden Glizzy, the Seafood Shack serving fresh lobster rolls, and cooled off with our Diamond Freeze Cart, serving nitro-spun water ice.
Beyond the menu, guests met Philadelphia Phillies legends, Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins, customized Capital One tote bags, and captured memories in the photo booth. ⚾ 💙
