The City of San Rafael has recently recognized our hard work in our on-going efforts to reduce waste and increase recycling. We have been featured as The City of San Rafael Business Spotlight. Click here to read the great article on their website! In the article it mentions our staff loyalty. However, to us this is one of the the very special aspects of Delicious! Catering and deserves more detail. A respectable well-run company attracts good hard-working people. Co-owner, Teresa Hammond, is a... Continue Reading

Have you heard? Delicious! Catering continues to be Marin’s FIRST and ONLY Green Caterer! We have always been conscious of our role in the environment and society. Then in 2007, as we became even more aware of the harmful effects of global warming, we decided it was time to make as much of a difference as we could. We investigated what it would take to become certified as a Green Business in Marin. We learned it was possible for our company to successfully make the positive changes to earn the...

As a business in San Rafael, we support the plans the city has implemented to reach the goal of Zero Waste by 2025. One of our favorite accomplishments has been participating in Marin Sanitary Service’s pilot program Food2Energy since 2014. The program was very successful and is now offered city wide. Food2Energy collects all food scraps from commercial businesses (restaurants and grocery stores) and, through controlled anaerobic digestion, turns this waste into a biogas. The power generated by...

In 2006, Marin County enacted a goal of 80% landfill diversion by 2012 and Zero Waste by 2025. Delicious! Catering, along with most Marin County residents, have embraced this challenge. Everywhere you look, there are waste collection bins in a rainbow of colors. We know that clean paper goes into the blue can, bottles and cans go into the brown can, and food scraps go into the green can. Even with the multiple bins and options, there are still challenges ahead to reach the Zero Waste goal. How... Continue Reading

This year, I celebrate my 30th anniversary at Delicious! Food has always played an important role in my life: growing up, I was in the kitchen every day. While earning my degree at Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington (B.S. in Biology, double minor in Chemistry and French), I worked in the school cafeteria. I managed a meal shifts, keeping everything running smoothly. After graduation, I waitressed at Victoria Station in Greenbrae.  My coworkers’ best friend was the daughter of... Continue Reading

The landmark ruling by the Supreme Court ruled that Same-Sex Marriage is a right for every American, in every state. We are proud to support this decision!

We have passed our final inspections by Marin County Environmental Health Service and San Rafael Building Department. We have moved (almost) everything to our new offices and kitchen, and are now busy getting settled in. This has been a marathon process to transform an empty shell of an industrial space into a gorgeous new kitchen and offices in a matter of 87 days. We are extremely grateful for the tireless efforts of McDevitt Construction, and especially Peter, our foreman. We would not be... Continue Reading

All of the behind the scenes structural, plumbing, and electrical work is done. The walls have been built and sheet rocked. The FRP (fiberglass reinforced panels) is on the kitchen walls. And yesterday, our first piece of equipment was installed – the walk-in freezer! Today, the red epoxy floor begins to be laid. Followed by the flurry of walk-in refrigerator, stove, ovens, griddle, sinks, and, and, and. . . . and then the food and us! We are anticipating a May 8 – 10 move – and we are excited!...

Underground plumbing is complete and the slab has been poured back. Rough plumbing, electrical, and IT are all in place. The walls are framed , the staircase built, and now it is time for sheetrock hanging. This photo is of our conference room – yes, we will have a dedicated separate (quiet!) place to meet with our clients! And our contractor seems to think we will be ready for a first week of May move! Stay tuned. Continue Reading

Their philosophy is an inquiry-based curriculum, balanced with the Reggio Emilia Approach that lends itself to focusing on the whole child and the incorporation of... Continue Reading

Monday, February 16th the demolition crews arrived at 3241 Kerner and quickly got to work removing carpet, doors, walls and everything else that was slated to be demo’ed. The concrete cutters promptly followed the demo crew. They began saw-cutting and trenching the concrete slab for the plumbing for all of the floor and sink drains and sewer line. A few hiccups along the way (but what major construction project does not have hiccups) and now we are moving right along! We have selected a... Continue Reading
