History & Mission

Our History

Ellen Orkin and Pamela Friedman met back in 1993 when their daughters were in preschool together. They discovered quickly that they had a common passion for everything food related. Ellen and Pamela began cooking together on a social basis for dinner parties, cocktail parties, barbecues, and all family celebrations. Friends frequently insisted that their food was so delicious they should start a business, and with this encouragement, their journey as caterers began and Word of Mouth Foods was born.

Pamela’s background is in law and Ellen’s is in food and restaurant management. The two have been in business together since 2002 and they are still creating and delivering new and innovative dishes for their ever-expanding client base.

Be it a corporate event, a small dinner party, or a 200 person wedding, it is their goal to make their clients a guest at their own event and to leave them with truly remarkable memories.
