Weekend Warriors: Earn Your Izzy’s Feast!

Ah, the weekend! A sacred time for those of us who transform into home improvement gurus, sideline saviors, and the masterminds of the carpool chess game. You've spent your days battling the leaky faucet, your evenings driving the soccer shuttle, and all while managing the intense drama that unfolds on the field. Yes, you, the weekend warrior, deserve a medal—or better yet, a feast from Izzy’s.

After a weekend of dodging power tools, you've not only fixed that wobbly shelf but also navigated the treacherous waters of youth sports where the real competition seems to be between the sideline commentators (we’re looking at you, Grandma!). You’ve watched your kid score the winning goal, all while keeping your cool when Grandma nearly got the red card for her enthusiastic "referee consultation."

So, here’s the plan. Reward yourself and your valiant family with an Izzy’s meal that speaks directly to the soul. Imagine sinking your teeth into our mouth watering famous Reuben, or that beautiful potato pancake, knowing each bite is a tribute to your weekend's toil. The kids can dive into cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets and grilled cheese, while you and your partner savor a moment of peace over a plate of Izzy’s finest.

This isn't just eating; this is celebrating. Celebrating the fact that you not only survived another bustling weekend but thrived through it. So, go ahead, call in that order to Izzy’s. You’ve earned every delicious bite, and let’s be honest, after dealing with the sideline antics, you need a victory meal to reset for next week’s battles.

Here’s to you, weekend warriors. May your tools always be sharp, your carpool routes efficient, and your Izzy’s meal, always satisfying.

Did You Know?

We have been a cultural institution in Cincinnati for over 120 years-and it's one that's filled with quirks galore. Our history is as rich as our menu, so here's a nice little ditty for you:

Back in the day, if you strolled into Izzy's dressed in a suit, you might find yourself paying a premium. No, it wasn't an extra charge for looking sharp; it was Izzy's unique way of pricing. If you looked like you could afford more, you might just end up spending more! This was Izzy's way of ensuring everyone got a slice of the fun, or in this case, the Reuben.

So, next time you're here, maybe think twice about dressing to impress—unless you want to impress your wallet with how quickly it empties! Izzy's, where the the dress code might just cost you.

What a feast, what a feast! Picture this: plates piled high with tossed salads that look like they've been through a gentle tornado, Reubens so stacked they're practically skyscrapers, potato pancakes with the perfect golden brown finish, and pickles so crisp they could star in their own crunch commercial. Truly, a pick-me-up like no other, a treat to be cherished!

But every good story always has a twist and unfortunately in this situation, the power decides to take a vacation, leaving us in the dark. But did that dampen spirits? Not a chance! The hallways turned into mysterious caverns, but fear not, for the nose knows. With other senses heightened due to the lack of visibility, sniffers were out, leading the charge to the food like a bloodhound to a treasure.

And with the lights out, guess what? The flavors got a spotlight of their own. Everything tasted like a culinary epiphany.

So, there you have it, another catering job not just done, but aced. Need a lift your next event? Just give us a shout, and we'll turn it into a sensory spectacle!

The Potato Pancake -

Imagine being a potato, nestled in the cozy embrace of the earth, growing day by day with the sun's kiss. Now, envision the pinnacle of potato perfection - being chosen to become an Izzy's potato pancake. Here's why it's the ultimate destiny for any self-respecting spud:

Being selected by Izzy's means you're not just any potato; you're the chosen one. You'll undergo a transformation that's nothing short of magical, where you evolve from a simple root vegetable to a culinary masterpiece. This isn't just about being cooked; it's about being crafted with love, precision, and a deep appreciation for what you can become.

At Izzy's, your flavors are not just discovered; they're celebrated. You achieve a harmony of taste and texture that becomes the stuff of legends. Each bite of you will bring delight, your crispy exterior giving way to a tender heart, making you a topic of conversation and a subject for social media posts.

Moreover, you'll gain fame. Your image will be captured, shared, and admired by food lovers far and wide. You become not just food but a symbol of culinary excellence, a testament to what patience, care, and skill can achieve.

But perhaps the most rewarding part is the satisfaction of bringing joy. Each person who savors you experiences a moment of happiness, a memory formed over the meal you become a part of. Your legacy is one of delight, of inspiring others to dream beyond their roots, proving that from the earth can come something sublime.

In essence, being an Izzy's potato pancake is the fulfillment of a potato's life purpose, transcending the ordinary to become something truly extraordinary.

The Pastrami Reuben -

In the world of sandwiches, there are those that you eat, and then there's our Pastrami Reuben—a sandwich you experience. We're not here to play games; we're here to claim the throne with our pastrami that isn't just good - it's the epitome of greatness. Each slice of this pepper-kissed beef is a testament to what meat should aspire to be. It doesn't just melt in your mouth; it practically evaporates.

But what's a king without its court? Crunchy sauerkraut adds that necessary texture, the bite of Gulden's mustard brings the spice, and the melty, imported Swiss cheese provides the perfect balance. All of this is lovingly cradled by a toasted pretzel bun, because in our kingdom, even the bread is exceptional.

The moment you take a bite, you'll understand why we're not just confident—we're boisterous about it. So, step up your sandwich game. Come and pay homage to the ultimate Pastrami Reuben. Remember, this isn't a meal; it's a declaration of flavor supremacy.

We've just wrapped up another incredible catering job, and what a spread it was! Imagine receiving this treat: a vibrant tossed salad, a fruit tray bursting with colors, a veggie tray that made even the non-veggie lovers go back for seconds, an assortment of hearty sandwiches, a cookie tray that was the talk of the event, crunchy pickles to tingle the taste buds, and, of course, our beloved magical potato pancakes – crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.

That's the Austin Kunz Construction touch – treating every customer like they're part of the family.

So, if you're planning your next construction project, why not bring in the team that knows how to treat you right? Reach out to Austin Kunz and his crew at Austin Kunz Construction. Get in touch for a bid, and have him help you build something great together.

The Angus Melt -

Luscious slices of USDA prime roast beef, kissed by the grill, mingling with the zing of sautéed banana peppers and caramelized onions.

Lets talk cheese-because what's a melt without it? The Provolone cheese is melted to gooey perfection and wraps around each ingredient like a warm hug. A touch of mayo adds that creamy dreaminess, all encased in a toasted telera roll that crackles with every bite.

This is an experience, a midday getaway, a bite of pure indulgence. Swing by Izzy’s, where the Angus Melt isn't just on the menu; it's stealing the show!

This weekend, Izzy's Catering didn't just play the game, we changed it! Setting up shop right at the turn, lining up that 9th hole putt became secondary to to getting that piping hot potato pancake (say that 5x fast). Golfers quickly forgot about the water hazard and had to look out for the drool hazard that ensued.

At Izzy's, we make sure your biggest handicap is deciding between another potato pancake or another round!

A REUBENATOR WITH BACON?!?

Just when you thought that our double-decker REUBEN was the peak of the sandwich mountain, a customer comes in and says, 'add crispy, glorious BACON to the mix!'🥓

Sink your teeth into layers of corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, imported Swiss cheese, Izzy's irresistible sauce, and interlace that with one of the kings of meats, Mmmmmmmm Mmmm Mmmmm!

WARNING: May cause uncontrollable drooling and sandwich envy.

Dive into the bacon-enhanced REUBENATOR today - because why settle for great when you can go for legendary?

Our latest spread – an array of dishes that not only fed but delighted – is a testament to our craftsmanship of the magnificent.

The Reubens were a spectacle, layers of savory, tangy, and rich, a symphony of flavors that speaks to the soul. With over 120 years of work put into getting them just right, you can taste the love. Beside them, our veggie and fruit trays offered a fresh, vibrant palette, each piece a promise of crispness and sweetness.

Our salad bowls were a marvel, where every ingredient was chosen to enhance the next, creating a harmonious dance of textures and tastes that's both refreshing and satisfying.

Delivered with precision and presented with flair, Izzy's Catering doesn't just cater; we redefine what it means to dine. Each event is an ode to deliciousness, a bold statement that food can and should be an unforgettable experience.
