FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW DOES AN HEIRLOOM LA DROP-OFF WORK?

All menu items are packaged and provided ready-to-eat in parchment-lined aluminum tins.  Menu items are available in a variety of sizes to fit your guest count.

 

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN A DROP-OFF?

Disposable serving utensils, kraft paper table covering, menu labels, and set-up are included at no additional charge.  Disposable chafing dishes (food warmers) and compostable guest plate/utensil/napkin bundles can be provided for an additional charge.

 

WHO DELIVERS MY ORDER?

Our in-house, trained drivers deliver each order. We allot 30 minutes onsite to set up a simple buffet presentation in our packaging. Since our drivers are on tight schedules, we must cap their time at 30 minutes.

Pro Tip: re-plating your drop-off order is easy! Grab all four corners of the parchment paper, lift the food out of the aluminum tin, and place your dish onto a different platter.

PICK-UP SERVICE

Skip the delivery fee and order a pick-up! Our team will call you 30 minutes prior to your scheduled arrival time to confirm your ETA. Park in front of our kitchen upon arrival and we will load your order into your vehicle. Be sure to have enough space in your vehicle for all menu items to lie flat.  We do not recommend stacking trays.
