How Food, Family, and Purpose Came Together to Create Cisco’s Catering

Every great meal starts with a story.

For me, that story begins in Harlem, New York City, standing beside my grandmother in her kitchen. That’s where I first learned that food is more than nourishment—it’s comfort, connection, and love served on a plate.

After losing my father at a young age, my grandmother became the heart of our home. Through her cooking, she taught me resilience, compassion, and the power of gathering people together around a good meal. Her kitchen wasn’t just where food was made—it was where healing happened.

I watched her cook for soup kitchens and neighbors in need, never asking for anything in return. That spirit of generosity shaped everything I do today. What started as helping stir pots and season stews slowly grew into a lifelong passion for creating dishes that bring people together and make them feel cared for.

As I grew older, that passion followed me. With a joyful personality and an entrepreneurial spirit, I realized I could turn what I loved into something bigger—something that blended great food with heart. That’s how this catering journey began.

Today, every menu we create is rooted in love, culture, and gratitude. Whether we’re serving an intimate gathering or a large corporate event, our goal is always the same: to create food that comforts, connects, and leaves a lasting impression.

Because food should nourish more than just the body—it should feed the soul.

“Dictate your circumstances—don’t be a victim of them.”
