Healthy Diet

Everything was wonderful! The food was delicious and enjoyed by all! Several people asked who the caterer was and I sang the praises of Foodstuffs and their consistency with providing fresh and delicious food. Cosmina and Francisco were on point all evening with great service from start to finish.

I recently worked with Beth for my mom's 70th birthday party and I just need to rave, rave, rave about my experience with her. She was so committed and left no detail to chance. Beth was thorough, thoughtful, and cared as though this party was her own. I was particularly wowed when she mentioned that once we put out all of the silverware, she would do another run-through with her careful eye to make sure everything was just so. It's not like this was a million-dollar event - but that extra touch made me feel like we were true partners and I would trust her with all my events going forward! EVERYONE at the dinner was wowed by the food and presentation.
