Comments: Luisa’s Catering provided a wonderful lunch for The Gourmet Corner. Our store was caught by surprise when we learned two days before our event that more than 45 people would attend! I contacted Luisa and she showed up at our store the day after. She immediately understood the emergency of the situation and told me that because we had so many great products in-house that she would have no problem preparing our lunch. Luisa did her shopping directly from our store shelves and came up with a fantastic choice of appetizers. Assorted charcuterie and cheeses were beautifully arranged on very nice serving platters. She took care of all the details and I thank her dearly for her great performance. We at The Gourmet Corner will without a doubt use her services again. – Hugues de Vernou

Comments: It was great. The food and martini's were a hit and all disappeared. We ended up with somewhere between 20-25 people as expected and the amount of food and drink were right on the mark. Thanks for everything. – Diane Follain

Comments: I work
for Alain Pinel Realtors in Half Moon Bay, and I have had
the GREAT HONOR of being at
two different events that Luisa has catered. I was blown away
with the food, service and professionalism we were all shown.
Luisa had a number of different choices to choose from and
each one was better than the other. When I have another event
to host, there is no one else I would use except for Luisa
and her GREAT staff. If you need to contact me personally,
my cell phone is 650-892-8498 – Bob Downes

Comments: After frequently
visiting a small café on the ocean, I noticed the menu was tastier and
more creative on one particular day of the week. When I found
out Luisa was the chef responsible, I made sure I arranged
MY schedule to coincide with hers. When I hired her to cater
my birthday party, I noticed five of my friends, all of whom
are good cooks, in awe. She is something special. I left the
planning and menu choices up to her and the party was a night
to be remembered. The guests are still buzzing about it 3 months
later! – Loretta Bohlman
Event: Birthday Party (Summer
2007)
Location: North Beach District, San Francisco,
CA
Client: Raymond Chiang
Comments: Luisa came
through in all ways imaginable for my B-day party. She offered
professional service
and will work with you to get the catering you want for your
event. I loved that she puts attention and detail into each
plate she creates. The party turned out great and all my friends
complimented on the fantastic presentation she did on the food.
She made this a 25th birthday to remember. Thanks Luisa's once
again! – Raymond Chiang

Event: Nursing School Graduation
Party (Spring 2007)
Location: Rose Garden District, San Jose,
CA
Client: Kris Tovar
Comments: I had
less than 2 weeks to plan my graduation dinner and fortunately
Luisa and her catering
crew were available. Luisa was so attentive to my dinner
party needs, she even found a bartender for me at the last
minute. They arrived prepared, served the guests and cleaned
up without me ever having to worry about anything! Now the
most important thing: Food. It was excellent! The awesome
appetizers kept my guests wide eyed and wanting more! As
for the main entree, the organic chicken was moist and so
flavorful, the salad was beautiful and refreshing and the
baby potatoes was the perfect compliment to the dish! I give
Luisa's catering 10 out of 10 and would definitely use her
again!!! – Kris Tovar
