Catering Services - Films, Commercials, Concerts, TV & Photo Shoots
Something’s Cooking is a full service caterer. We have a 5,000 square foot kitchen located in Long Island City plus 4 mobile kitchens, or grills with a chef for hot breakfasts where trucks are not feasible. We do our own baking and purvey our products fresh daily. Our meals are served using glass plates and stainless steel flatware whenever possible. We encourage you to select the menu that will meet your crew’s needs. Our staff has a great deal of experience with the needs of the film industry. We are always interested in your crew's input into their specific likes, dislikes and dietary requirements. We can help you plan a menu that meets your budget and needs. Tables, chairs and linens are available for a fee.
We’re committed to the success of your event and go the extra mile to ensure that the food we serve is prepared to perfection, beautifully presented and that the wants and needs of every guest are satisfied. This has been our approach to catering since 1984 and has made us one of the most successful and widely sought after catering companies in New York.
