Right Choice Catering
https://therightchoicecatering.com/
The Right Choice Catering & Gifts is not your normal catering company. We don’t provide “cafeteria-style food.” Our goal is to provide you with food that reminds you of what Grandma used to make. We cook Southern-style, home-cooked food that is full-flavored and always freshly made. We make the things that remind you of your childhood…whether we are making buttery creamed potatoes or a delicious coconut cream cake, we hope that you are transported to your childhood with each bite. Chef Melissa is careful to taste each dish before it leaves the kitchen and guarantees that each dish will taste the same each time you order it. Give us a call and try your favorite!
