Catering! Catering! Catering!

In the catering world there are some days like these that we try to embrace when the dust settles from all the hard work. We have been working tirelessly at improving every part of our business from simple drop off catering, picnic menus,  breakfast menus, wedding selections and our full service events. We have had the pleasure of working with the University of Chicago at multiple venues that they manage. We are so excited to be doing business with them and we received a wonderful review on both Google and Yelp. Please click on the links to go to the reviews and see yourself.

Chicago Social Cocktail Party at the David Yurman store

We recently had an opportunity to provide the catering for the Chicago Social cocktail party at the David Yurman Store in Chicago on Oak street.  The turn out was fantastic, the store looked beautiful, and the appetizers and drinks were delicious. We love being the caterer for these types of events, its an honor and it allows us to reach out to new customers that might not have had our catering before. Throughout the night we had over one hundred and fifty women at the store. The images should be featured in the upcoming Chicago Social magazine.  Thanks again CS.

Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary

Occasionally we like to share customer feedback on the Catering and services we offer. For more testimonials please contact us.

This one is from, Linda from Lake Villa.

I just wanted to let everyone at Corky’s know how pleased I was with the food, the delivery and the customer service in general.  EVERYTHING WAS OUTSTANDING!!!  I did check around and I just can’t believe the huge difference in pricing – I can’t imagine anyone else being any better even though they charge three times as much.  Everything we ordered was exceptional and all that were in attendance complimented us, therefore Corkys, on the quality of the food.  I did pass out a few cards, so I sincerly hope you will get some future orders because of the great service you provided us.

Thank you again, you made the day very enjoyable for everyone!

PS. The event was for my parents 50th wedding anniversary and I remember them ordering from Corky’s for my 8th grade graduation.

For more testimonials please contact us or call 630-396-3050.

Picnic Catering

We are so excited that summer is here. This week is supposed to get into the 80′s, and we hope everyone will start planning their summer and graduation catering. Corky’s Chicago Catering offers the best prices in town and we guarantee it. Bring in a offer from one of our competitors and we’ll beat it by 5%. We take being the largest catering company in Chicago very seriously, and we will not be under sold. In our new pricing for the year we are trying to roll back the clocks, most of our menus are actually priced similar to what we were charging back in 2007. I can’t imagine you’ll find another catering company in Chicago that will do that!

So, lets talk picnic catering. Here is a list of new and old items that will get you craving a picnic of your own.

1.) New Italian Quesadillas – Italian sausage with three cheese mix and a special blend of Italian spices, cooked to a perfect crisp.

2.) Hong Kong Chicken Wings – A new addition to our wing line up, these wings are baked in our special spicy Hunan sauce. Try them as a combo with our buffalo wings or Honey BBQ.

3.) Mini Cheese Cakes – Delicious mini’s perfect for the office or the park, this New York style cheesecake is as close to mom’s as I can remember. Call for flavor details.

4.) Corky’s Famous Fried Chicken – This recipe has not changes since 1978, we fell in love with it then and we love it just as much 32 years later.

5.) Corky’s Famous BBQ Fried Chicken – The next best thing to our Fried Chicken is our BBQ Fried Chicken. We take the original recipe, slather it in our own special BBQ sauce and throw it back on the grill for that crispy caramelized sweet flavor

6.) Watermelon Baskets – A seasonal item that we bring back in the spring. We take a large watermelon cut it into a beautiful basket and fill it with the freshest fruit available.

So, there are 6 great picnic catering options that are sure to keep you smiling. There are more new items that are coming out, but are still in development. Keep your eye out for our next post.
