Memorable Events and  Catering

Our Business

Our goal is to provide the kind of service that we ourselves would demand. We treat everyone as though they were guests in our own homes. We want every event to truly be beyond what you are expecting. We act as our own harshest critics as we strive to offer the best food, the best customer service, the most beautiful tables, the most relaxed atmosphere.

Melissa and Tricia have combined forces many times over the years. When Melissa worked for Christ the King Church in Bellingham, WA and was asked to cook for four back to back banquets of 300 each, it just seemed natural to ask Tricia to help. Both of the women had been catering for years as a service and a gift to their friends both separately and together.

It wasn't until January 2007 that their dream of going into business together came true. Neither one of them really had an idea of what the future held, but after buying more and more equipment, insurance, racks to hold the equipment, tablecloths, china, etc. they were open for business.

We have found our client's to be kind in their praises of our ability and service, as they often recommend us to their friends. Our reputation has grown primarily by word of mouth.
