About Me
Lizzy's Elite Catering opened officially as a Domestic Limited Liability Company on June 14, 2021, but the cooking and catering traditions began over 39 years ago.
Lizzy's Elite Catering name was derived from my middle name "Elizabeth". Lizzy is a nickname in honor of my Maternal Grandma, Mary "Elizabeth" and my Paternal Aunt "Elizabeth", who are both angels in Heaven lighting my path; "Elite" meaning "Best of the Best" was a concept inspired by Jelani, my close friend, who helped me brainstorm unique business names and ideas, and has been my personal coach and mentor who led me to starting my own business; and the term Catering, although defined as a 'professional' food service, my catering roots started 'personally' in my Paternal Grandma Nora's kitchen in Chicago Heights, Illinois as a small child. My 3 blessings Eric, Reece and Bre are my motivation and Grandma Nora is my inspiration for creating Lizzy's Elite Catering . She helped raised me and taught me the art of cooking flawlessly with love, care and quality. She was the host and cook for family gatherings and she always left everyone satisfied and returning for more! Needless to say, I carried on Grandma Nora's traditions and eventually became the host and cook for holidays events, family gatherings and reunions when she passed away in 2001. I am proud to carry on Grandma Nora's tradition of cooking great food for all!
