Portola Valley Catering, Hillside to Barn
Portola Valley catering is a logistics puzzle we like: narrow roads, long driveways, ranch properties, barn venues, and kitchens that were not built for sixty guests. We bring our own equipment, park where you tell us to, and leave the property exactly as we found it.
