G-Town Catering brings local gourmet food to Oahu
A family-run Hawaii catering business is growing its reach on Oahu, good news for locals and event hosts looking for healthier local-style food.
- G-Town Catering, run by the Paris family since 2007, serves local dishes with a gourmet twist.
- The menu leans on fish and grilled items instead of fried food, a habit picked up from catering for Kaiser Permanente's health care staff.
- Weekly pop-ups run at Kaiser Permanente farmers markets Tuesday through Thursday around lunchtime, open to the public.
- Catering is the main business, handling events from 30 to 500 people — weddings, graduations, baby showers, and a growing number of gender reveals.
- Garlic rice, kalua pig, and teriyaki chicken are the crowd favorites.
Outlook: Demand for the pop-ups and party catering looks set to keep building as word spreads beyond the Kaiser crowd.
