About Boomer’s Kitchen & Catering
Boomer’s Kitchen & Catering was built from a kitchen. What started as home-cooked meals shared with friends grew into one of Philadelphia’s most trusted catering and food truck brands. Today, we serve corporate events, weddings, festivals, and private celebrations across the Tri-State with the same care and consistency that built our name.
How We Started
Boomer’s Kitchen & Catering was founded in 2015 by V’Esther Goode, known to many simply as Boomer. Starting a catering business was never Boomer’s intention, it started with breakfast platters sold as a fundraiser to help her son through college.
As Boomer shared her home-cooked meals on Instagram, she received great feedback and demand grew beyond friends and family. That’s when she realized her skills could go further than the kitchen. Boomer decided to invest her savings into a food truck. Boomer invested her savings into a food truck and took the brand to the streets of Philadelphia. The rest wasn’t luck. It was work.
“My business started from cooking for my friends in my kitchen to catering for my friends from my kitchen. The business just grew from word of mouth and great customer service!” – V’Esther Goode aka Boomer
Our Catering & Food Truck Standard
We believe every catering and food truck experience should be intentional and taste exceptional. Every tray, every plate, and every setup reflects preparation and pride.
We prioritize fresh, locally sourced ingredients whenever possible, supporting regional suppliers and ensuring that quality starts long before the food reaches your event. Bold flavor is important, but consistency, cleanliness, and execution matter just as much.
When someone books Boomer’s, they’re trusting us with timing, presentation, and the overall experience. We honor that trust by showing up prepared, professional, and ready to deliver.
