✨ LA TAVOLA ✨
Food that brings you home. 🇮🇹❤️

Friday’s 40th birthday celebration called for a table made for gathering — and La Tavola came to celebrate. 🥂

An abundant Italian-inspired spread filled with cured meats and cheeses, Caprese skewers, marinated antipasti, fresh fruit and crudités, rustic breads, house accompaniments, warm Meatball Parm sliders and, because no Italian celebration is complete without something sweet… cannoli. 🤌

But La Tavola is about more than the food.

It’s about walking into a room and seeing a table that makes you want to pull up a chair, pour a glass, stay awhile and eat. It’s food meant to be shared with the people you love.

Because that’s what we do.

Food that brings you home. ❤️

Happy 40th Birthday, and thank you for allowing Sweets & Savories by JoyMarie to be a small part of such a special celebration! 🥂✨

Five years of food that brings you home. ❤️

Today marks five years of Sweets & Savories by JoyMarie—and I have spent a lot of time thinking about what this past year truly meant.

This year didn’t look like the years filled with competitions, awards and constant events. It was a year of restructuring, learning, surviving and finding balance. It was the year I chose to make more room for my children, my family and, most importantly, myself—without giving up on the dreams I have worked so hard to build.

And when I step back, I realize just how much happened.

Sweets & Savories was recognized as a Top 16 bakery in the country at the Dessert Wars National Finale. I launched Queens Eats Italian Mobile Bistro, introduced our signature grazing tables and expanded our catering experiences. We returned to Festa Italiana and served more than 1,000 portions in honor of St. Anthony. I also became a proud member and sponsor of the Charlotte Order Sons and Daughters of Italy in America.

This year taught me that growth isn’t always louder, busier or more visible. Sometimes growth means creating a stronger foundation, learning when to slow down and building a business that leaves room for the person behind it to live, too.

Thank you to every person who has ordered, shared a post, attended an event, visited the trailer, recommended my business or continued to believe in what I create. You have helped carry this dream through every season.

Here’s to five years of Sweets & Savories, the newest chapter of Queens Eats Italian Mobile Bistro and many more years of food that brings you home. 🇮🇹❤️
