I am of Italian heritage and a native of New Orleans, so exceptional food is in the blood! We New Orleanians are very passionate about our food. Katrina is responsible for us relocating to San Antonio, Texas. We are caring for my elderly parents and needed a new business that did not take us out of the home fulltime. So, we started a catering business! It's going quite well so far.
