At Kickin’ It Local, we’re all about shining a spotlight on the incredible small businesses that make our community vibrant. This week, we’re excited to feature 3F Premier Catering, a family-owned food truck and catering business specializing in authentic Gluten-Free Colombian and Mexican Food in Keller and Fort Worth!
If you’ve ever visited the Keller Farmers Market, chances are you’ve seen (and smelled!) their empanada food truck in action. Known for their mouthwatering arepas, perfectly seasoned meats, and signature sauces, 3F Premier Catering has become a staple for locals who crave bold flavors and fresh ingredients.
Meet Fernando: The Heart Behind 3F Premier Catering
The magic of 3F Premier Catering starts with Fernando, the owner and culinary artist behind the business. With over 20 years in the food industry and a background in culinary school, Fernando brings passion, experience, and authenticity to every dish.
Inspired by his Colombian roots and a love for Latin cuisine, Fernando created 3F Premier Catering as a way to share his heritage with the community. From empanadas to arepas, every bite reflects his commitment to quality and his desire to bring people together through food.
We have been fans and following Fernando since we moved to Texas in 2020! We have even showcased his food at our annual Hispanic Heritage Festival we hosted in Keller. From Food tent to Food Truck and now, a brick and mortar kitchen! It had been so fun kickin’ it and watching his journey. His family loves what they do!

Behind the Scenes at Fort Worth Food Works
While their food truck is a must-visit at local farmers markets, 3F Premier Catering now has a brick-and-mortar kitchen space in Fort Worth where you can enjoy their amazing food during the week. We had the chance to go behind the scenes with Fernando, getting a firsthand look at his process and sampling some of his best dishes.
