Corporate catering that makes your team — and your event organizer — look good.
High Touch founder Lena Zakharova personally oversees every corporate event — from board breakfasts and team lunches to larger company gatherings. She responds to every inquiry and makes sure your guests feel genuinely cared for from the first bite to the last.
What We Cater
Corporate formats we are built for
From intimate board tables to company-wide all-hands. Every format is personally planned by Lena and executed by our full team.
Why Corporate Buyers Choose Us
The difference is in who you work with
Not a catering company with a website. A founder who picks up the phone, oversees every event, and makes you look exceptional.
Lena responds personally, usually within 15 minutes
Not a team. Not a bot. Every inquiry goes directly to Lena. When you hear from High Touch, you are hearing from the founder — and she already knows what to ask.
We handle dietary complexity as standard
Vegan, GF, DF, nut-free, halal labeling built into every service — not as an afterthought. We ask for dietary counts ahead of time and build separation into the service flow.
We know SF corporate venues cold
FiDi, SoMa, Mission Bay, the Peninsula — High Touch works in every type of SF office venue, from kitchenless floors to full-service conference suites. We know the load-in rules, the constraints, and how to make it work.
AI takes care of the details. Lena takes care of you.
We use AI for event planning, timelines, and coordination so we can move faster. But Lena makes every decision personally and signs off on every proposal. Fastest proposal in SF — with a human at every step.
Full Service
Everything that comes with every event
No line items you have to track down. This is all included, managed by the team, overseen by Lena.
Dietary & Dietary Handling
Built for mixed dietary groups
Corporate teams are diverse. We plan for that from the start, not as an afterthought. Chef Elena personally oversees dietary protocols for every event we take on.
“We ask for dietary counts ahead of time and build separation into the service flow — so no guest has to wonder whether the food is safe for them.”
How we handle it in practice
- Individual item labeling at every station and passed tray
- Physical separation between dietary options at the service table
- Chef Elena personally reviews and approves all dietary protocols
- Dietary intake collected with guest count, ahead of your event
- Staff briefed on dietary specifics before service begins
- Separate serving utensils for each dietary category
“I’ve worked with Lena for 2.5 years across multiple events for different clients, and I keep coming back to her for a reason. What sets Lena apart isn’t just her execution, it’s her instinct for what a production actually needs — including things you didn’t know to ask for. Seven hours into a long event, she’ll appear with a plate of food and a knowing smile. When a venue had no prep kitchen, she made it work out of a laundry closet. When a hot day caught us without enough water to drink, she had canned beverages in people’s hands before I’d even finished flagging the problem. She finds the way, every time. I’ve recommended Lena to others in my field without hesitation, and every single one of them has come back grateful.”
