Busy Bee Cook for Me | Caterer | Chef — Local services in San Diego

We first used Busy Bee Cook for Me and Lillian almost 5 years ago. We contacted Lillian to help us with our daughter's high school graduation celebration dinner. The dinner was absolutely amazing and Lillian and her staff handled everything perfectly. During the pandemic, Lillian provided weekly meals for our family. It was a great way to enjoy a "dinner out" while staying at home. Each week Lillian prepared and delivered a delicious and varied menu, including salad, entree and dessert. As the pandemic was winding down and we were able to get together again with friends, we hosted a small birthday dinner party. Lillian and staff prepared a steak and seafood dinner. Prior to dinner, we enjoyed appetizers and a specialty cocktail requested by the birthday girl! In early October 2022, we again used Lillian to caterer our son's wedding on our property. The venue was not without challenges, but Lillian and her staff were up to the task. A small onsite kitchen was brought in along with tables, chairs, dinnerware, glassware and bar service. 230 guests enjoyed an evening with passed appetizers, beer and wine service and an outstanding short rib and salmon buffet. Over the past several weeks, many of the guests have reached out and commented on the quality of the food, the generous portions, and the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. After dinner, the staff served wedding cake to all the guests. Every detail was considered and Lillian and her amazing staff went above and beyond to give us a day to remember. Everything was taken care of from set up, food, drinks, dessert and clean up. We have truly enjoyed working with Lillian over the years and will look forward to another opportunity to have Busy Bee Cook for Us! ...

Our sense of gratitude for all Lilian has done to make each occasion she has come to our home to cook and organize a dinner, is truly profound. As evidenced by the letters of appreciation we received thereafter, every time the guests left with an overwhelming feel of having had a superb meal cooked by her, on a table elegantly laid out by her, as indeed served with great grace by her and her team. Lilian has the rare ability to match her professional acumen and execution with gentle warmth. Her pleasant demeanor, commitment to perfection, work ethics, enables her to take the lead in being a generous, gracious host, lending any party the flavor of a special family gathering. Making the entire experience complete in gratification is that at the end of the event, you retire to contemplate the pleasure of its happening, with nothing more to do as the kitchen and other space used has been cleared and cleaned, with everything returned to where it belongs. We can unequivocally say Lilian and her team will never disappoint, they can only excel. We wish them the very best, that and more is their ...

I highly recommend Busy Bee Cook for Me! We recently had 45-50 people at our house for a work-related party and Busy Bee did the catering and bar tending. For starters, Chef Lilian is a breath of fresh air! Lilian and her staff are friendly, professional, attentive, and efficient. From the lay-out and set-up, to the delicious food and customer service, we could not have been more pleased. Chef Lilian furnished a creative, mouth-watering menu that our guests devoured. (I must say that her pineapple jalapeno margarita is over the top delicious.) Busy Bee worked so hard yet made it all appear effortless. When they left, our place was spotless. Several of our guests asked for business cards. Perhaps the greatest compliment I can give is that I have already asked Lilian to cater another event. Busy Bee Cook for Me is...
