Catering Made Simple is a full-service caterer based in Elgin, Illinois, serving weddings, corporate events, private parties, and film and healthcare productions across the Chicagoland area. Known for menus that balance timeless favorites with fresh, creative flavors, including specialty dishes such as crab rangoon, pecan encrusted goat cheese salad, and spinach and brie stuffed chicken, with gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and vegan options available. Founded in 2013 by Greg Chanthalusy, the company grew from drop-off orders to a full-service operation serving Fortune 500 offices, hospitals, film crews, and weddings; it received the Elgin Area Chamber 2024 Small Business Award on February 13, 2025. Primarily serves the Chicagoland and Fox Valley region, including Elgin, St. Charles, Geneva, Schaumburg, Naperville, and nearby suburbs, with travel beyond this area available subject to additional fees. Guests frequently praise the quality of specific dishes (particularly the crab rangoon), the attentiveness of coordinator Cari in managing communication and calming nerves, and the team's ability to execute logistics such as 200-place-setting room flips in under an hour.
