Armed with a stove and station wagon, coupled with passion and knowledge of cooking Southern Soul Food and Caribbean cuisine, Bennett Caterers was born. Catering to a very diverse population in greater Hartford in 1963, Eva Mae Bennett was very resourceful with her Home Economics background.

The Jewish families that employed her taught her the art and traditions in the preparation and cooking of kosher meals. Kenneth Bennett, who was no stranger to hard work, soon became employee number two at Bennett Caterers. He had been working in the fields of Jamaica. His cooking skills and knowledge of Jamaican and other Caribbean fair expanded their client base as well as the menu. The breakthrough year, 1973, was the year it all changed. All 9 of their children were employed in the family's thriving business.
