Hi ETC family!

Now that the weather is nice, it’s perfect for spending quality time with loved ones at the beach or park, perhaps even with a shared meal.

This week, we cover a small business that caters for home and office parties, so be sure to scroll down to check it out.

We’re also still on the lookout for Tri-Cities food influencers, so if you’re a foodie or know any foodies, let us know so we can feature you in our newsletter.

As always, stay awesome!

The breakfast platter at Cafe Dorothy is the best way to start the day

If you’re looking for a fully loaded breakfast that offers a little more than just eggs and bacon, then look no further.

Coquitlam’s Cafe Dorothy offers a $25 breakfast platter that includes one pastry, a brie sandwich, and a latte.

We tried the full set and can say that the combo makes for an incredibly memorable meal.

El Mariachi Mexican Food makes for the perfect taco party

If you’re hoping to be the host with the absolute most, you’ve got to give El Mariachi Mexican Food a go.

We recently ordered from the catering company and were incredibly impressed by the sheer bounty of options offered with its taco party set; from over half a dozen sauces to a delicious array of fillings, it felt that there was a nearly infinite number of flavour combinations to create.
