Even though I don't live in the area, I am curious to know about your menu. I so appreciate a restaurant business like yours, offering: gluten-free and vegetarian options! Do you have an online menu available?
Nice job and good luck, thank you for your insight
I wanted to share the wonderful experience I had meeting Diane and Michael when the catered our work meeting. The food was amazing, so fresh!!! Such great attention to detail and personalized. I would not hesitate using their services again. Thank you both!
I have known Diane for years now. Diane has been an Operations Manager and General Manager around the Pinellas county area for along time now . Diane has always shown passion for what she does , respect for the customers she serves and love for the product she offers. I would trust no one else with all my catering needs . Since actions speak louder than words . I would say Diane has shown the world who she truly is . A loving , kind and passionate women. That will go above and beyond for anyone not just her customers.
