About Hollis
Hollis
has a sense of style and dedication to professional excellence
that you will not find in many restaurants, catering companies
or hotels. Her forte is taking your venue and your vision
for the event you plan and making your dream a reality. Hollis
is very hands on, and there is seldom an event that leaves
her shop without her personal supervision.
Hollis opened her
first catering business and cooking school in Scarsdale, New
York in 1978. In 1983 she opened an extraordinary restaurant
in NYC called “Hollis and Company”. Hollis and
her crew baked and made all of the food that was used at the
restaurant and in their off-premises catering. The venture
was a round the clock operation and after three years of this
grueling pace Hollis closed shop in NYC and relocated to much
calmer pace of Orange County California. One year later Parties
By Panache was formed and has been catering to discerning
diners ever since.
Hollis
is very active in supporting local community activities and
projects in which she finds great value. Hollis and Jerry
O'Brien are strong supporters of KKJZ FM 88.1 which broadcasts
from the Chuck Niles Studios at Cal State Long Beach. Hollis
is also a long time supporter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Additionally Hollis and Jerry support many Jewish and temple
affiliated groups throughout Orange County and often donate
cooking classes which Hollis personally teaches.
In
addition to being a founder and the owner of Parties By Panache
Hollis is at work on her first book in collaboration with
Valerie Sloane. Hollis is Jerry O’Brien’s wife;
Jeremy and Henry’s mother; Hank and June Fliegler’s
daughter; and David, Michele and Mark’s sister. Hollis
is a Barnard College graduate with a degree in chemistry and
Parties By Panache is the third company that she has built
in her 25 years of catering professionally.
