So Le Mans weekend at Mosport has come, and gone, and we all know what that means...Summer is coming to an end. :(
Although our "busy" season is coming to an end, there are still so many things to keep us busy at the kitchen! Kathy, Criag, and Leslie are still busy with all the weddings, and corporate caterings we have every week. Meanwhile, Heather, and her staff are busy baking for Watson's. Along with all the delicious pies, and other baked goods available to purchase at Watson Farms, there is also a large variety of jams, and relishes made fresh from local produce. I recommend the raspberry jam, and the sweet pepper relish!
Other things that keep us busy during these months include, Apple Festival, and, Kawartha Downs, just to mention a couple.
Then there is Devil's Elbow in Bethany! Right this minute, we are thinking of new menu ideas for the cafeteria at Devil's Elbow! For more information on Devil's Elbow Ski Area, visit www.devilselbow.com.
Now, back to work. Time to get things ready for the three weddings we have this weekend!!!

Each of the weddings are different. We have a buffet, a plated dinner, a platter service, and one of my personal favourites, a Cocktail Party Extraordinaire.
For the Cocktail Party Extraordinaire, the bride and groom are asked to pick a number of interactive stations from a list of possible options. Tonight husband and wife to be have chosen things like a carving station, a stir-fry bar, and the mashed potato bar. Which is a must see!!! For dessert, the guests, and wedding party will be taking a ride down the chocolate river! Check out our newly updated website for more information on the Cocktail Party extraordinaire wedding!!

Green Mandate
Kings Court Catering has just embarked on an ongoing quest to be more sustainable that will encompass four specific areas: Community, Environment, Heritage and Local Purchasing. We are committed to reduce waste, support local vendors, preserve local heritage and work closely with community organizations. We may never be perfect, but we are trying!
Waste:
Kings Court Catering has begun separating cardboard, paper, bottles, cans and waste in an effort to reduce garbage disposal. We will also be introducing a worm compost system at the Teahouse Restaurant to cut back on waste that ends up in landfill and will produce valuable worm castings that can be used to enhance the gardens at Parkwood Estate.
We have begun using Compostable disposable dishes that significantly decrease the amount of time required to breakdown when composted. Our drop off meal combos will be delivered using less plastic serving pieces, as we are in the process of implementing the use of Recyclable Food grade cardboard platters and bowls. We also offer a ‘Green Essentials’ package that uses real china dishes, cutlery and linen napkins which are 100% reusable.
Local Foods and Suppliers:
Local products and food suppliers are used whenever possible as a preference to support the local economy and local farmers. This will not only decrease carbon emissions, but also allow us to present fresher and better quality produce to our customers. Purchasing preference will be given to suppliers who use local vendors and practice good environmental standards
Carbon Offsets:
A carbon offset tax system will be put into place at the Teahouse Restaurant with credits used towards the purchase and installation of trees throughout our community. Our goal is 100 trees for the 100 days of summer. We are committed to plant 100 trees in conjunction with Valley’s 2000
Community Giving:
We are proud to be part of a community-committed organization that continues to embrace local charitable efforts with various organizations including: Rotary Club of Bowmanville, Bethesda House and Community Living Oshawa/Clarington. Our executive chef’s ongoing participation with the Breakfast Club at Central Public School is an example of our pledge to support our local community
Additional Efforts:
Our entire facility is currently lit by Compact Florescent Lighting (CFL) implemented through Veridian’s Electricity Retrofit Incentive Program.
During the printing process of our new corporate menu we decided to use Recycled paper products and vegetable dye ink to reduce potentially harmful chemicals into the atmosphere
