What C'est Si Bon Catering & Events does

C'est Si Bon Catering & Events is a private, founder-led full-service off-premise catering and event planning company founded in 2022 and based in Long Island, Nassau County, New York. The company serves weddings, corporate events, galas, cocktail receptions, intimate gatherings, private in-home dining, and meal prep clients across The Hamptons, Long Island's Northern Fork, and NYC, with stated intent to expand geographically. The operation is anchored by Executive Chef Kamal Hoyte, a Culinary Institute of America graduate (2010) who previously worked at Oceana Restaurant and Restaurant Daniel in NYC and has been featured in Forbes, Wine Enthusiast, New York Times, CBS New York, and New York Lifestyles Magazine.

The company monetizes through per-person event pricing with volume discounts, ranging from $39 for passed appetizer menus to $149 per person for premium Signature Menu tiers, with supplements for premium items such as lamb chops, duck breast, scallops, and charcuterie. It also offers wine-pairing upgrades and seasonal/holiday-specific menus. Customer acquisition runs through a WordPress website with an online event request booking calendar, supplemented by phone inquiries, Facebook, Instagram, and an email newsletter offering a 10% first-order discount. The technology stack is intentionally lightweight — no proprietary platform, mobile app, or integrated CRM/ERP is disclosed.

The customer base is almost entirely individual consumers across diverse use cases (weddings, corporate, intimate occasions, private chef dining) with no named enterprise accounts, supported by a thin 14-review Google footprint. The business model is transactional per-event rather than subscription-based, and there is no external funding, parent company, or institutional investor involvement disclosed. Media features function as the primary brand-building channel rather than paid advertising.
