CARMEL, N.Y. – Homestyle Caterers, the official caterer of the Putnam County Golf Course, is spotlighted in the November 2015 issue of WAG magazine. In the article, “Homestyle Caterers: With Tradition on the Menu,” Al Ciuffetelli talks how he and his brother Joseph, who is also his business partner, contribute a significant portion of their success to keeping family at the core of their company.

“That’s a big part of what we are,” he says in the article. “Family’s a big part of it.”

Many of their nearly 60 employees are family members.

The importance of family extends out to relationships within the community.

Homestyle Caterers hosts family friendly Friday-night barbecues and concerts at Putnam County Golf Course in Mahopac during the summer months and does a lot of work with not-for-profit organizations and local causes.

“We’re all about the community,” he adds in the article.

In addition to handling the food service at Putnam County Golf Course and organizing the private and public events held there, Homestyle Caterers is also responsible for the catering at Dunwoodie Golf Course in Yonkers, does off-premise catering and provides lunches to schools and institutions in the lower Hudson Valley.

“We serve 2,000 meals every single day,” he says in the article.

Most recently Homestyle Caterers has added providing the catering and booking the entertainment at Westchester County Center in White Plains. It has Kenny Rogers set to perform on Dec. 11.
