Didi was wondeful, food and presentation on point. Her staff represented her well, as Ray stayed to serve. Event was a Sweet Sixteen party with 40 guest. Taco Bar, on cute Fiesta Cloth, very cute. I look forward to using her for my next event.

Didi did an amazing job catering my ten year high school reunion. She was so flexible and helpful with finding a menu that would fit out limited budget, and she was so patient. Didi was always quick to respond even when I got busy with work and took awhile to respond on my end. She showed up with an assistant and worked swiftly to set up a beautiful display in the funky space we had available. I continued to be blown away by the value when I saw that we received really nice disposable chafing dishes and serving utensils with our drop off catering deal. The 7 layer dip was AMAZING, and the rest of the food was very good too. I would absolutely recommend Didi for any event you might be planning, especially if you're looking for casual comfort food. Thanks Didi!

The food was seasoned to perfection! The team arrived early and worked really hard to fit all of the needs of my event. I'm so grateful for them and I'd certainly use them again and recommend them to others.

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?I use high quality ingredients so I customize pricing based on the menu and services requested. I do my research when selecting vendors and I work to keep my prices reasonable but catering service is not for everybody. You have to be able to appreciate the stress, hard work, time and energy you saved yourself by hiring a professional.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?I give a warm greeting first to make them feel comfortable. I tell them about me and what I do. I listen to what they need, want and desire. We discuss the budget and if they have concerns I show them my menus and how they can get the most bang for their buck. I get an idea of the types of cuisine they like and then I create a delicious presentation that my customer and their guests will truly enjoy.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I come from a long line of Southern cooks with amazing skills in the kitchen. I attended Culinary School in AZ. and I have worked in the Food Industry for several years. I attribute my strong Management and Organizational skills to working as a GM supervising over 90 employees and as a Senior Procurement Specialist for 10 years. I am currently a Nutrition Director for the last 7 years.
