“Middle Eastern” Feast
When often asked what I “do” for a living I can’t help but think that the word caterer is a harsh misrepresentation of what goes on at Brothers Green (my brother and I cook). For one, when you think of caterer you might be expecting a group of people wearing the white button down bow tie combination hidden behind a bunch of reheated chafing dishes. This is often the immediate picture that is painted in my head when I hear that someone is involved in catering and not that there is anything wrong with that, but that isn’t exactly what we do over here. Also, we do not have an official business and so it has taken us some time to fully understand why we do what we do, but like all things in life, we have to learn as we go.
With the help of some friends I have invented a new term to properly identify what we do at Brothers Green. We are Food Wheelers. What is a Food Wheeler? A Food Wheeler is no more than a friend who wants to help you with all of your food related needs. There is no official company. We are two “chefs,” and brothers ,who love to cook and who have realized how important it is for your overall being to be eating well prepared and cared for meals. We personalize each and every meal, whether it be; dinner party, home delivery (meals on wheels), cooking lessons, large events, or anything beyond, we want nothing more than to help fulfill your wants and needs.
I have come to understand that a large portion of New York City dwellers do not have the time and/or the ability to eat home cooked meals and so this is where Brothers Green can be of some help to you. We really do love food, we love preparing it, shopping for it, serving it, making it taste different than anything you could otherwise imagine, and we love helping out where others might come up a bit short. It is not all that different from asking a muscular friend of yours who works out often to take you to the gym and show you how to tune up your body. You asked him because you trust that he knows what he is doing and can help you achieve your goals. Sure, you could go hire a professional trainer, but what better way to learn about the body than from friend with whom you trust? That is all we hope for at Brothers Green, to be a friend who, like all friends, is here to help you in your life long journey.
(A Wheeler is also a “Master Pimp” so I am sure you can only imagine how we loved that tie in to the name)
