About Us
It all began when Elizabeth and her
then-fiancé were planning their wedding. Frustrated by the lack of
catering options available that focused on quality ingredients and
delicious food made from scratch, Elizabeth decided to plan and
cater the wedding herself. Afterward, the guests could not stop raving
about the event! Thus, the idea of Betty Brooklyn was born.
Our Philosophy
Putting the client first
- We promise to listen to you and craft an event or cooking class that
is just what you dreamed of. We also promise to accommodate your
preferences and dietary restrictions without compromising taste or
quality.
Sourcing sustainably - We promise to use seasonal and and organic produce from local farms whenever possible.
Keeping craftsmanship alive - We are committed to making our food by hand. That means we make our own pickles,
mayonnaise, mustard, jams, relishes and baked goods all from scratch,
using techniques nobody's grandma would be ashamed of. If we can't make
it, we support local artisans that do.
Nourishing our guests - We
believe that the most delicious food is also intrinsically good for
you. Food made from great ingredients that feeds your body what it
really needs is, in turn, more physically satisfying.
Selecting skilled staff and treating them fairly - We promise to select our
staff members individually for their friendly attitudes and
ability to provide exquisite service. We value treating our staff
with respect, paying them fairly and empowering them to rise to their
potential.
Reducing waste
- The cycle of our business goes from the farm to your table and back
to the earth as compost. We promise to compost our food scraps in our
local community garden whenever possible.
