I guess the term catering means something other than what it means here.
Here it is done for things like weddings and other big parties. They
deliver and often serve the food for an event. There are few places here
that will deliver a family dinner, outside of pizza places.

Frozen food would be of no use to me. I am looking for something that
requires no heating or refrigeration.
