Vision:

Provide affordable gourmet services while helping the community by purchasing produce, protein, and supplies from local farmers markets and neighorhood stores.

Objective:

Help families and organizations with proper planning and execution of their events and memorable celebrations by providing educational information through consultations and workshops.  The focus of our company's direction is to promote nutritional and flavorful meals, at the same time delivering the message of using local sustainable products.  In lieu of this, we have also partnered with the Long Beach Sunday Farmers' Market at California Heights, a local certified farmers' market, where we make the majority of our purchases for the events that we cater.  Additionally, we coordinate monthly cooking workshops at the Long Beach Sunday Farmers' Market called "Chefs at the Market" in where we invite top local chefs to present free cooking demonstrations for the community using items that are available at the market.
