Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free & Health-Conscious Catering

Plant-based and dietary-tracked menus rooted in Chef Juan’s years cooking at Cafe Sunflower, one of Atlanta’s leading vegetarian kitchens.

—

The biggest myth about vegan catering is that it’s all bland. Chef Juan spent years as Chef Manager at Cafe Sunflower, one of Atlanta’s leading vegetarian restaurants, and contributed to the Cafe Sunflower Vegetarian Cookbook. He learned there that plant-based cooking is really herb cooking, and that a dish like his Pacific Quinoa Salad, pineapple, an Asian-style dressing that infuses the quinoa overnight, is what happens when you take vegetables and herbs seriously. Chef Juan’s® health-conscious catering carries that experience into vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, keto, Paleo, and allergen-safe menus for events across Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. Not as a “special dietary option.” As a first-class menu.

Pacific Quinoa Salad. Pineapple, an Asian-style dressing that infuses the quinoa overnight, and a careful herb build so the dish tastes like something instead of tasting like quinoa. Chef Juan developed this at Cafe Sunflower and still cooks it today.
