Mary Catherine Guest's "Food Vision"

You might have heard about the eccentric Italian in town or seen the colorful cottage right off the square. If so, you've seen Mary Catherine Guest's vision for Oxford..."food vision" that is. Along with her daughter, Olivia, Mary Catherine created Olivia's Food Emporium in Madison, MS; however, Mary Catherine's creative heart remained in Oxford. After much planning, Mary Catherine was able to bring her vision to the streets of Oxford, and in April officially opened up "Olivia's Too."

While the original Olivia's is now managed by her daughter and simply remains a catering business, Mary Catherine has expanded the Oxford location into a restaurant/boutique. Mary Catherine's cooking experience and imagination derive from her Italian roots. She never follows a recipe, and instead chooses to let the kitchen do the cooking rather than the instructions.

Who says business isn't delicious?
