Founder

Meet
Chef Antonio

My name is Antonio Bedoya, and cooking has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. It started in my mother's kitchen, watching her prepare our family meals with so much love and care — that's where my passion for food was born, and it never left me. Over the years, I turned that passion into a career, working as an executive chef in restaurants and honing my craft. Now I'm ready to take that experience further with Bedoya's Plates, my own catering business, bringing the same dedication straight to your table for the moments that matter most — birthdays, weddings, graduations, and every celebration in between. I believe great food starts with fresh ingredients and a lot of heart. Every dish I make carries the same care my mother put into hers, because for me, food is about the people around it, not just the plate. I can't wait to be part of your next event and see that smile when you take the first bite.

OUR MENu

Bedoya's Plates brings together three culinary traditions under one catering menu — vibrant Mexican taco plates, hearty Spanish-style rice and seafood platters, and a full lineup of classic Italian-American entrees and apps. Guests can expect smoky, marinated meats (al pastor, carnitas, carne asada), comforting Italian staples (chicken parm, baked ziti, homemade gnocchi), and elegant options like salmon in lemon butter or shrimp scampi. It's a crowd-pleasing spread built for variety — perfect for parties where guests have different cravings, from casual finger foods to fork-and-knife entrees.
