"If we we're planning an event (and we often are), here's who we'd call for help."
"When this Boulder-based company — which was featured on celebrity chef Bobby Flay's Food nation — caters an event, the preparation starts months beforehand: The vegetables, herbs, and flowers used in Big Bang's dishes are grown on its 35-acre, organic Pastures of Plenty farm." -5280 Magazine, July 2008, page 123

"In early summer, (Lyle Davis) and his wife...throw a feast for family and friends at their 1887 farmhouse...'We know that everyone eats with their eyes first. That's why we celebrate food with a vision of abundance and beauty,' says Lyle, who grew up on a farm where cooking — good, unfussy cooking inspired by his mother's garden — shaped most of the family's traditions. The feast marks the beginning of a busy wedding season for another of Lyle's businesses, Big Bang Catering. Vibrant green is the unifying motif..."

"Out on their farm — Pastures of Plenty, near Longmont, Colorado – Lyle Davis, his wife, Sylvia Tawse, and their four children dine together more often than city families perhaps. Davis, a farmer and chief cook, has been influenced by the food-friendly cultures of France, Italy and Greece. He cooks seasonally and simply, usually in mediterranean style, using many foods the farm produces. As a result, the Davis clan has been reared on a broad spectrum of flavors and international influences that have brought an adventurous spirit to the rituals of dining..."

"My wife and I have worked with Big Bang Catering on numerous occasions when we have wanted to create a small, intimate, hassle-free, entertaining dining experience for our good friends. Not only has the food presentation been thoroughly excellent, but the interaction between Lyle, John and our guests has been a wonderful, positive and enhancing experience. Lyle and John even participated in our after-dinner entertainment with our guests.

Big Bang has been cooperative and sensitive to our guests with regard to special dietary requirements and no request has been ignored.

In the future, whenever we want to create a really "special" evening for our friends, we will use the talented team at Big Bang Catering!

-Neil Anderson

"A sensationally beautiful feast, lovingly prepared...Bravo Big Bang Catering.
Well done!"

"Clearly, John and Lyle have a real passion for food. You can taste it in the meals they compose, see it in their bountiful displays, and even feel it when they get people together over food."

"Our wedding was more than we imagined. The food, the flowers, the awesome staff - our friends and family had a fabulous time. Thank you all! "
