After years of going to cocktail parties and catered events, chef Bob Spiegel and T.J. Girard had enough. They were tired of fighting for chicken skewers, having no place to put their glasses, or garbage for that matter. So chef Bob and designer T.J., decided to take a chance and opened their own catering company called PINCH Food Design. It truly is the art of catering. The duo, along with their partners Stella Rankin and Karen Hillburn, started the company in 2011.
Their designs allow guests to interact with the food and one another. Food hangs from an umbrella or a wall, or it rolls on a table made of marbles. Each piece is created at PINCH's studio in Chelsea, Manhattan. The food is locally sourced and made by chefs with decades of experience.
PINCH has become so popular, and particular, it has catered events for Christie's auction house, Lady Gaga, and The Museum of Natural History.
