Coconut Groove, Florida, August 6, 2015 (Newswire.com) - As one of South Florida’s premier event planners and caterers, Bill Hansen leaves nothing to chance in serving affluent clients for what is perhaps the most important day of their lives.

As CEO of Bill Hansen Luxury Catering & Events Production, Hansen has assembled a team of seasoned professionals who deliver high-end events at more than 100 exclusive venues throughout the area. That capability has been expanded through an affiliation with Lavan, a gourmet Kosher Caterer in Hollywood, which will cater events, providing a unique experience combining ethnic food with the meticulous planning of Hansen’s team.

“For years we have been seeking a partner that could provide the level of service and culinary excellence that has become our calling card,” said Hansen. “We have found that partner with Lavan and its managing partner Morris Dweck. We look forward to meeting the needs of clients seeking a Kosher dining experience at weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, and corporate events.”

Lavan meets and exceeds all of the requirements regarding the preparation and serving of Kosher meals at off-site events. according to Morris.

“In establishing Lavan, we wanted to eliminate the perception that Kosher food and the dining experience have to be bland,” said Dweck. “Being Kosher and serving a community that firmly believes in kashrut, it is fair to say that we have a mission beyond simply providing culinary pleasure. The mission is to provide spiritually motivated food. We are now able to extend this vision and to off-site events with the collaboration with Bill.”

In providing a Kosher event, Lavan can either transport properly prepared food from its commissary in Hollywood to the venue or prepare the meals in a mobile kitchen on-site that is fully certified by ORB. Lavan also provides all silverware and dishes that meet the stringent requirements of being a truly Kosher dining experience.

All menus are planned and prepared by Dweck, who embraces the multi-cultural flavors of Miami. Lavan only uses European trained Israeli chefs who bring the best of the best menu items to South Florida. There is a myriad of entrees to choose from, utilizing a wide variety of seasoned fish and meat..

“Morris and his team are the perfect complement since they not only meet the important Kosher requirements but also the high standards we have established for more than 30 years,” said Hansen. “With this relationship, we can confidently serve the Jewish community by providing quality events with the finest Kosher foods.”

Based out of the historic Villa Woodbine historic mansion in Coconut Grove, Hansen and his team of executive chefs and planners consistently deliver on its promise of creating “one-of-a-kind” experiences that eliminate the stress during the preparation and the day of the event.

“We have become the ‘go-to” caterers and event planners for people seeking non-traditional venues,” said Hansen. “Many people want something unique as opposed to a hotel or a country club. We pride ourselves on offering our clients the most diverse selection of venues in South Florida.

In addition to Villa Woodbine and Vizcaya, Hansen offers other venues including the The Kampong, Fairchild Tropical Garden, Park Place, Palm Court, the DuPont Building, The Moore Building, The Cruz Building, The Charles Deering Estate, 1111 Lincoln Road, The Gallery of Amazing Things, The Versace Mansion, The Rubell Family Collection, The Ice Palace, The Walton House, The Ancient Spanish Monastery, The Bonnet House, The Needham Estate, to name a few.
