Summer is upon us. Lazy days. Picnics. BBQs. Eating fresh. Gone for now are the heavy, comfort foods of autumn and winter, replaced by lighter fare.

Just as the seasons change, so do our Catering by Michaels menus. And like the first butterfly of the season or that first whiff of Sunday charcoal, the arrival of our Summer menus signals the arrival of longer days, warmer temperatures, and happy gatherings with friends and family.
