Lisa's Bon Appétit

Lisa’s Bon Appetit is honored to have served the south bay since 1979. The first location at Vista Montana off of PCH and Anza was where we began our legacy of amazing recipes, the most popular of course being our Chinese Chicken Salad.

Lisa Eriksen, a warm soul with a knack for making people feel welcome and entertained, started helping her friends with parties and found her calling in catering. She opened up a quaint little café and catering company which has blossomed into what is now known by the Daily Breeze as the Best Caterer in the South Bay.

Ms. Lisa, as she is known around the community, retired in 1991 leaving her thriving endeavor to her daughter, Susanne Alexander. Susanne, like her predecessor, has her own gift of entertaining with style, pazazz and a great sense of community. Her health conscious lifestyle is always seeking out the best ingredients and healthy alternatives for her business.

Susanne has expanded the business substantially since moving to the location in the Madison Park Shopping Center. She has utilized the creativity and dedication of the same chef’s for the past 15-20 years that has lent to the success of the business. However, the greatest vehicle of success is the devoted customers. In every facet of the business, Susanne, like Ms. Lisa, adds a touch of European simplicity and class.
