Wayne Enterprises Chicago Acquires Corky's Catering: A Culinary Marriage of Two Icons

By Robin Banqueton


Hello, dear readers! I've got some exciting news to share about the inside scoop on a significant development in the culinary world.


In a move that's been brewing for quite some time, Wayne Enterprises Chicago, the parent company of Eleganté Cuisine and Metropolis Ballroom, has recently completed its acquisition of Corky's Catering. The second half of the year has seen this venture take shape, and now, it's official.


But what does this mean for all you fine folks out there who have savored the delights of Corky's Catering? Fear not, my friends, for the essence of Corky's service remains unchanged. In fact, the goal of this acquisition is to bring you the same cherished Corky's experience while expanding its reach.


Wayne Enterprises sees tremendous potential in Corky's, and the marriage of these two culinary giants promises exciting innovations. We're talking more flavors than a spice rack at a chef's convention!


Now, let's hear from the former owner of Corky's Catering, Margorie Green, as she shares the transition with us:

"Dear Corky’s Catering Client, My name is Margorie Green, the owner of Corky's Catering, and I wanted to take a moment to share a recent and exciting update. After being in business for 50 fantastic years, I have decided to retire. It's been a journey filled with joy, and I'm truly grateful for the trust and support you've placed in us over the years. I have recently found an outstanding partner and as I move into the next phase of my life, I'm thrilled to introduce you to the incredible team that will be taking over Corky's Events. Allow me to introduce Didi and Thomas Manetti, the proprietors of Wayne Enterprises Chicago. They bring with them over 40+ years of expertise and a stellar reputation in the Chicago market as a premier catering and special events company. Their company was started in 1982 from the family home of Thomas Manetti. Working from family recipes handed down from generation to generation, their first catering menus were created, and have continued to evolve and be refined over the years."

Margorie Green's words assure us that your upcoming events are still a top priority. Wayne Enterprises Chicago will continue the legacy of exceptional service and commitment that Corky's Catering is known for.


So, what makes this acquisition unique, you ask? Well, it's the merging of Corky's and Eleganté Cuisine's scratch kitchens under one roof. This culinary union promises a series of mouthwatering innovations that will undoubtedly tickle your taste buds. The fusion of these two culinary minds is set to create culinary masterpieces that will redefine the art of catering. You might say they're stirring up a recipe for success, and we can't wait to taste the results!


Now, here's your chance to connect with us. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out by clicking the "contact" button. A Wayne representative will be in touch shortly to address any inquiries you might have. And no, they won't be asking for your grandma's secret lasagna recipe, we promise.


It's an exciting time for all of us as we embark on this culinary journey with Corky's Catering under the Wayne Enterprises Chicago umbrella. Stay tuned for more delectable updates, and remember, the future of catering is brighter than ever!


Best regards and warmest wishes,

Robin Banqueton
