Cinco de Mayo, Spanish for "Fifth of May", is also known as the Anniversary of the Battle of Puebla. It is a national holiday in Mexico in honor of a military victory in 1862 over the French forces of Napoleon III. 

Not to be confused with Mexico's Independence Day, Cinco de Mayo has become a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage, especially in areas with large Mexican-American populations. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated with parades, mariachi music and street festivals. Here, at B&M Catering, we'll take any excuse for Fiesta!

Congratulations to Terry F. from Berkely, MA

She is this month's lucky winner of the Facebook Fan-of-the-Month Beach Blanket!

We know, the spring weather has been soooooo slow to arrive here in New England, but we've been around long enough to know that pretty soon we will be in the midst of summer with all its sticky heat - and awesome beach days. When summer days finally do arrive, Terry will be ready to hit the beach with our oversized terry beach blanket sporting the image of our popular mascot, The Fresh Lobster. 

Congratulations, Terry!

B&M catered my parents' 50th anniversary party at the Kinney Bungalow in Narragansett.

We were beyond happy with the food - a mixture of seafood and BBQ items - and all our guests raved about it.

I appreciated B&M's willingness to work with me on a menu that fit our budget and they were very patient with all my many questions!

On the day of the event, I felt the staff was super responsive to all our requests and needs.

After all the planning, it was such a relief to be able to enjoy myself at the party without worrying about what should happen next.

B&M and, in particular, Tammy (the team lead) took care of it all!

We also had tons of leftovers which we enjoyed the next day and also froze for later!

I cannot recommend B&M enough.

You will not be disappointed!

Thanks so much for the kind words, Danielle. 

It was an honor to alllow you to enjoy yourself at this special occasion.

We wish your parents many more happy years together.
