Lulu’s Kitchen is a new 8,000-square-foot, free-standing facility that is home to St. Matthew’s House catering operations (Delicious by Design), a full-service restaurant (Fresh Start Cafe) and much more.
See the Fresh Start Cafe menu here.
LuLu’s Kitchen includes a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, open-to-the-public Fresh Start Café and drive-thru window, Delicious by Design commercial catering operation, and Culinary Training Institute of
Southwest Florida.
LuLu’s Kitchen was made possible by a generous gift from The Holecek Family Foundation. The project development team included architect Ted Sottong, RA, of Liberating Vision Design, LLC, the engineering firm
of GradyMinor, and building contractor, Connor & Gaskins Unlimited, LLC.
The addition of LuLu’s Kitchen significantly enhances the St. Matthew’s House capacity for service. It also makes possible expansion of both the St. Matthew’s House commercial catering operation and culinary
training program.

In 2015, by partnering with Catalyst Kitchens, we were given exclusive access to Starbucks products as a nonprofit. Through this partnership, we opened two Café M25 locations – one in Naples and one in Fort Myers. These two cafés provide a fast-paced, unique environment to train men and women for the food service industry. In addition to serving Starbucks coffee, both cafés offer breakfast and lunch items made fresh daily by Delicious by Design.
