Alli's expanding its catering business

By Howard B. Owens

Expanding the catering business of Alli's Cones and Dogs has long been on owner Carl Dilcher's agenda, but marketing such a business takes a lot of time.

Now Dilcher has got Sarah Veazey promoting and selling catering for Alli's and he's ready to expand that part of his business.

"I just needed somebody to help get going with it," Dilcher said.

Veazey said the Alli's catering service will be different from what other catering businesses offer because customers can put together their own menu.

"We’re offering an open menu," Veazey said. "If you have your heart set on stuffed chicken and baked tomatoes, we can offer it. Where the other guys pretty much have a set menu, we’re open to pretty much anything."

Dilcher said Alli's can offer any kind of entree -- from beef on weck to smoked turkey, and with partnerships he's established can offer any kind of BBQ as well as set ups of tents, tables and chairs.

"Give us a call we we’ll quote a price and take it from there and see what we can do," Dilcher said.
