PRAISE FOR BILL

“I need a new vocabulary because I’m running out of superlatives.  How can I thank you for how you make every event spectacular?  Easter dinner was amazing. The food, the service … Every aspect was perfection!  Your staff are like family and knows exactly what I like and always work so hard to please everyone. Billy’s lamb just right was what I’ve come to expect. It was exactly the way I love it!  Everyone raved about the food!  We have a winner with that menu. After all these years (at least 25) we work together with a minimum of contact and a maximum of trust. That’s something money cannot buy!”

– Long-time Private Client (Family Easter Celebration)

“The food last night was BEAUTIFUL and really made the event special. I talked to so many folks who said it was the best catering they’ve had at an event. Thank you so much for your involvement and all the staff working were AMAZING. They were so professional, friendly and quick. All around, just a really wonderful experience for us. We couldn’t have been more pleased.”
