Sometimes I wonder if I should’ve named this business “No Limit Catering,” because there’s really no limit to what we can cook up for y’all 😂

Boxed lunches, loaded nacho bars, family-style spreads, plated dinners… picked up, dropped off, or fully served. From fried chicken to lamb chops, beef bourguignon to jerk chicken, Southern favorites to Spanish flavors… we do a little bit of everything over here!

That’s one of my favorite parts of what I do: creating food and an experience that fits YOU. Whatever the occasion, it’s all made with so much love. 🫶🏽

Take a little scroll through what’s been cooking in Patria’s Kitchen! And before y’all come for the chips in the nacho bar picture , they weren’t fried yet. We fry them fresh! 😂

Got something coming up? Let’s talk about what we can make for you. ❤️

Thank you to culture • community • care for having True Catering at the Village Row, Free Farmers Market! It was such a beautiful community experience, and it was a pleasure to provide lunch made with love. I’m sorry to anyone who missed it, y’all cleared us OUT & FAST!

I don’t always broadcast the ways I give back, but this opportunity came from someone seeing a post and realizing I could be a resource. I would love to connect with more nonprofits and community organizations whose missions are close to my heart, especially those supporting women, children, young women, Black-owned ventures, and purpose-driven community work.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to do something like this again soon. 💛

Y’all are ALWAYS asking when I’m selling plates… well, HERE YOU GO! 😂🍽️

Tomorrow we’re firing up the grills and serving up some True Catering favorites for a cause that means more to me than I can put into words. 💙
