Mellow Mushroom Locally Owned Caterering and Groovy Pizza
In mid-December, Behind Daytona was invited to a special showing of a new service offered by Mellow Mushroom. This great establishment, owned by local resident Robert Hargrave and located in Port Orange, has been a tremendous addition to our area with their beer taps and pizza. Now they are offering catering!
Mellow Mushroom has evolved there excellent regular foods into a worthy selection of specialty catered sandwiches and salads.
As for what I tested the evening of the introductory showing:
Sandwiches we tried
CALIFORNIA CLUB
Made with all-natural grilled chicken with sun-dried roasted tomato’s, applewood smoked bacon, fresh avocado and garlic aioli on multigrain ciabatta.
COUNTRY CLUB
This was a nice mix of turkey, avocado, crisp romaine lettuce, mayo, tomato, the wow factor, bacon jam and provolone on sliced multigrain.
Salads we tried
OH, KALE YEAH!
They use baby kale and spring mix with fresh avocado, dried cherries, house-made candied pecans and bleu cheese crumbles, served with vinaigrette.
CHILL OUT PASTA SALAD
Their house-made recipe with spiral pasta, sun-dried roasted tomatoes, fresh spinach, portobello mushrooms, pesto, shaved parmesan tossed with our herb vinaigrette.
There were several other options including pizzas to order for this service. The options for Lacto-ovo vegetarian were a pleasant find for catering. Cathryn Keifer is heading the catering side of this venture and it is our opinion that she has hit a home run!
If you are planning any event that might want to use catering I cannot recommend Mellow Mushroom enough as this spread was fantastic and professional.
