About Hot and Hot Catering

Hot and Hot Catering, formerly known as Hastings Catering, was originally founded in the early 2000s, an offshoot of Chef Chris and Idie Hastings’ now Michelin-recommended restaurants — Hot and Hot Fish Club and Ovenbird. What began as occasional favors for regular patrons and community organizations in town has now grown into a sophisticated and prominent business that provides bespoke catering services to brides, non-profits, corporations, universities and individuals throughout the state of Alabama and beyond. With the same attention to detail and excellence that has brought acclaim to the Hastings’ restaurants, and a new and improved team of directors, we are here to serve our community with a smile and a passionate commitment to your catering and event needs.

We can bring our catering services practically everywhere: whether it’s your own home, a venue of your choosing, or at either of our restaurants. we have a package that will suit your requirements:
