[quote=Anonymous]My birthday party is next saturday, it's a very casual pool party/mexican fiesta... we have planned to have Guapos come cater, but they require a minimum of 30 people to come out and do their thing (grill on site, fajitas, provide all plates, napkins, etc.)  They do everything, which I love.  But due to vacations, etc, a number of my friends can't come, so I think the total at the party will be around 18 or so.

Any other ideas for food?  It's my 40th, so I really don't want to have to do any work and I like it being a little special that there are caterers on site.. that's what I loved about Guapos.  For example, I don;t want to pick up platters, food, at a restaurant and set it all up myself.

Any other similar catering options that don't have that kind of 30 person minimum?   Perhaps even a personal chef type who could just come to the house and pull together a meal for 20 people?  it's a very casual get together, my only requirement is that the food is Mexican, tex mex, etc.

Considering they do eveything, the Guapos option is really reasonably priced.  The whole package, incl. set up, food, staff of two, plates, etc, comes to Just over $600.  So that's my budget.   One option I have is just to keep Guapos and pay for 30 people even tho that many people wont' be there.  Well just have plenty of leftovers.  But wanted to ask the group here for any other ideas.

Thanks !
