A Sweet treat for your Sweet tooth : Big Londas Kitchen

Everyone loves a buttery tasting cupcake  or a  delicious vanilla dipped strawberry from time to time  but sometimes we can not find the right catering service who can deliver. We see all the photos on the website and fall in love at first sight but never on first bite. We had the extreme pleasure of Interviewing Big  Londa's kitchen this past weekend in Miami Florida. 

 

Story of Big Londa's Kitchen

      Londa used to work as a caterer for a big catering company in Miami and one day she decided to go on her own. She is an experienced chef for over 15 years and can slay a cake or two as you can tell. We love her courage to venture out on her own and believe me one taste from her flavorful dishes will have you scheduling your next event catered by her.
