Savoury Chef Foods was the exclusive caterer for the second year in a row for VIP ticket holders of Cirque Du Soleil – Totem Tour 2014. For two months we provided a pre-show canape, chef station reception, full open bar, and desserts during intermission for up to 150 guests. All of this was executed in a pop up kitchen of 20×40 built from scratch. We value our working relationship with Cirque, and look forward to the next opportunity to share our great food with them!
