Gary and Cecil’s story began as childhood friends in Richmond, long before they became business partners. Gary found his passion for cooking early on, discovering that food was a way to connect with people and cultures. Cecil came to cooking later, after leaving behind a corporate career in search of purpose. He found it in the kitchen, working in fine dining and mastering his craft. Together, they formed T&C Custom Catering & Events—a business built on friendship, flavor, and the belief that food brings people together.

Our Philosophy

We believe food is one of the purest expressions of love. It has the power to comfort, to celebrate, and to connect. For us, cooking isn’t just about feeding people—it’s about creating moments that turn into memories. Every dish we serve tells a story, brings people closer, and reminds us why gathering around a table will always matter.
