WHY Because you’ve always yearned to recreate Lucques’s Sunday suppers in your own home, down to the little table setups of olives, bread, butter and fleur de sel.

WHAT Run by Suzanne Goin’s sister, Jessica, the catering arm of the Lucques/AOC/Tavern empire handles everything from intimate birthday dinners to large events, including flower arrangements and wine if you like. Professional and thorough, the staff (including a chef from one of the restaurants) leaves your house as they found it. ;

WHO Cal-Med seasonal aficionados with extra cash in their pockets. Not cheap, but not outrageous either, and you get what you pay for.
