RAVES & REVIEWS
If you’re looking to have a party and want it to be special, I would highly recommend enlisting the help of the Bougie Foodie. First of all, you fall in love with Lauren the instant you meet her. She listens to what you’re thinking for your occasion and helps by making suggestions as well. She goes above and beyond. People are still talking not only about her food, but also how she displays everything. Her team is the best! They’ll do anything to please! Her cakes are out of this world. I had guests tell me, they don’t normally like cake, but loved hers. It’s really impossible to list everything in one review. I simply cannot say enough good things about the bougie foodie!!!!

5 Star Google ReviewI hosted a party in April with the help of Lauren. I am not from Myrtle Beach and my best friend was getting married there. I had a lot of stress about trying to make a welcome brunch as perfect for my best friend as I possibly could. Lauren took all that stress away by providing us with the perfect food set up. She handled everything and was an amazing help. Everyone raved about the food at the wedding as well. Thank you so much for everything Lauren! If I ever find myself needing to host a party in Myrtle Beach again you will be the first call as well as the first recommendation to others.

5 Star Google ReviewThe Bougie Foodie was the perfect choice for a milestone bday for my mom and 20 family members across 3 generations. Working with Lauren was seamless from start to finish -- she made everything incredibly easy and efficient, from selecting the menu to coordinating logistics to the final execution.

Facebook RecommendationWe used The Bougie Foodie for our small wedding and she was AMAZING. We wanted a taco/nacho bar and she created the most delicious menu and beautiful set-up. She went above and beyond and helped us acquire tables and chairs for our reception and she made sure our area was decorated before we arrived from the ceremony. We will definitely use her services for future dinners!

Facebook RecommendationWe had the good fortune to learn of Lauren and the Bougie Foodie through recommendations of neighbors. In our experience she has been nothing less than amazing. So far, she has catered two events for us, and we plan to have a third. The customized menus, inspiring presentations, attention to detail, and best of all, scrumptious cuisine are the hallmarks of her calling. Our guests are still talking about the memorable events. If you are looking for a personal chef, we recommend Lauren Clever and the Bougie Foodie.

Facebook RecommendationThe Bougie Foodie was a super choice for my birthday party. After arrival they quickly started preparing nachos and then started on various meats for tacos. It wasn’t just the food that was amazing along with cake but the presentation was first class Then a total clean-up followed to end the great event. Would highly recommend for any special occasion.

I highly recommend The Bougie Foodie.
