Meet Caterer Russ Morin

Fine Catering by Russell Morin is a proud part of Morin’s Diners Inc. – a family owned business since 1911. The current generations’ grandfather, J.B. Morin, started the business as a 24 seat diner located in front of a four story jewelry manufacturing company in Attleboro, Massachusetts. The family had to pitch in even then as Mrs. Morin cooked entrees and baked pies at their home 2 blocks away to be brought to the diner fresh daily. The popularity of the diner led to the opening of another in the early 30’s and in the 40’s upon his return from overseas, Ralph R. Morin expanded the diner into off-premise catering. The business continued to grow and Ralph expanded his kitchens through the purchase of a nearby building. The expanded kitchen and the contribution of the current owners, R. Russell Morin and William Morin, made taking control of the food-service at three local country-clubs possible. It was during this time Russell and William developed their passion for the business that led each of them to the Cornell University Hotel School and back to help further and carry on their family’s legacy. www.morins.com
