  • SUMMER-WEDDING-2015-2016.Pdf
    Catering by Restaurant Associates is part of the Restaurant Associates family and tradition. Our relationship is one of unity and dynamism, crossroads and crossed utensils, perfectionism and potential. Every dish we prepare is the culmination of years of experience, carefully built infrastructure, and a tireless dedication to quality. But there are two halves to our story: we’re also a creative, independent family of our own. We’re as nimble and adventurous as the boutique firms and as disciplined as a battalion. We cut no corners to make big events feel intimate and intimate events feel magnificent. It's a bundle of contradictions with a delicious payoff. We’re more than a division. In the end, like the cuisine we craft, we are quite literally greater than the sum of our parts. Our equation is multiplicative: Taste x Consistency Experimentation x Reliability Scale x Intimacy Personal x Professional We are Catering x Restaurant Associates. We are CxRA.

In this article we describe layers of meaning by introducing three settings, which are very different in character yet able to link through our use of the cake as a common denominator: the cultural institution of coffee and cakes in a Norwegian rural village, cakes served and controlled in an educational institution for minority women and cakes as part of Friday get-togethers at an academic institution.
