Happy Catering
Vassilli “Bill” Bouloukos decided to leave Corporate America and follow a different dream, a dream of opening his own restaurant. This was the beginning of a long and prominent career in the restaurant industry. Partnering with Robbie Dyson, they have now built one of the most successful catering businesses in Birmingham. After opening his restaurants, Bouloukos found that there was a demand for catered business lunches and even had people asking about weddings. He realized that wedding catering could be the best of both worlds, planning for the large events and the satisfaction of seeing guests enjoy his food and service.

As Bouloukos was growing his catering business, he had heard that his first restaurant, Andy’s on the Green, was changing hands again and he stopped by to meet the new owner, Robbie Dyson. Dyson created Dyson Deli and Gourmet to Go as a meat-and-three diner but also offered gourmet soups, entrée salads, and artisan sandwiches. Dyson fell in love with the food industry while studying restaurant and hospitality management at the University of Alabama. Dyson Deli and Gourmet to Go had a great run the first two years, during this time, Dyson began working some large wedding events with Bouloukos, and they both realized they worked well together. Dyson decided to sell his restaurant and become partners with Bouloukos. Dyson brought his operations knowledge to the table and Bouloukos’ role serves as the front man who focuses on sales and marketing side of the business, so they complement each other well.
