Authentic Caribbean catering for unforgettable moments
Island Girl Bahamian Cuisine was born from one woman's passion, resilience, and unshakeable love for her culture. After relocating to Columbus, Ohio, Chef Felisha Bowe — a single mother and lifelong cook — discovered a city hungry for authentic Caribbean flavors.
Armed with recipes passed down from her mother in the Bahamas, and a heart full of determination, she turned her kitchen into a cultural bridge — and never looked back.
"The food was absolutely incredible — guests were going back for seconds and thirds. The jerk chicken was unlike anything I've tasted outside the Caribbean. Island Girl made our graduation party unforgettable."
"Professional, punctual, and the flavors are out of this world. Our corporate team is still talking about that curry chicken. This is catering on another level entirely."
"She brought the whole Bahamas to our wedding reception. The presentation was beautiful, the food was perfection, and every single guest asked where we found her. We are customers for life."
Chef Felisha Bowe was honored as a Small Business Awards Recipient by Mahogany Columbus — a testament to her vision, resilience, and the lasting cultural footprint she's building in the heart of Ohio.
Island Girl Bahamian Cuisine was featured on Columbus Living, bringing authentic Bahamian cuisine to television audiences across Central Ohio. Chef Felisha Bowe represented her culture and community with unmistakable pride.
"Island Girl Bahamian Cuisine is more than a business — it's a cultural expression. I serve authentic Bahamian dishes using recipes that are rich in flavor and heritage. I want every bite to remind someone of home."— Felisha Bowe, Owner · Mahogany Columbus Magazine
Rooted in tradition. Fueled by passion.
Every dish we prepare carries a story — one that starts on a small island in the Bahamas, in a warm kitchen where a young girl stood beside her mother, watching, learning, and falling deeply in love with the art of feeding people.
My passion for food began as a little girl, watching my mother move with grace and love in our kitchen back in the Bahamas. After relocating to Columbus, I realized how much I missed the food of home. That's when I decided to create it myself — and share it with others.
Starting this business wasn't just about food. It was about survival, purpose, and creating a better life for my children. Cooking came naturally to me, and when people tasted my food and it brought them joy — that gave me the motivation to keep going.
Today, Island Girl is more than a catering company. It's a cultural ambassador. Island Girl Bahamian Cuisine is my love letter to the Bahamas, to my mother, and to everyone who's ever tasted my food and felt like they were home.
