WTF is Pattie Mon?!

One mon on a mission: proper patties, made by hand, the way they deserve.

Pattie Mon is a one-man pattie operation out of Guelph, Ontario. Every pattie (the dough, the filling, the crimp) is handmade by the mon himself, in small weekly batches. That's why there's one bake a week, and why it sells out.

These aren't the pale, frozen rectangles hiding at the grocery checkout. These are gourmet Jamaican-style patties: hand-rolled pastry, real island spices, generous filling, and a flakey golden crust that leaves evidence on your shirt.

You'll catch him popping up at local festivals and markets around Guelph, or you can skip the hunt and have a dozen land on your doorstep on Friday. Follow @pattiemon_ to see where he's popping up next.

The kitchen behind the pattie

Food. Culture. Community.

Pattie Mon is the flagship of HighR Catering, a Guelph-based culinary and cultural brand built on community, storytelling and handmade food.

HighR Catering started small: intimate community meals and local pop-ups, run by chef, artist and community facilitator J. Reid, who believes a plate of food can do a lot of heavy lifting. Today it caters events, collaborates with organizations and universities, feeds students, and supplies retailers and neighbourhoods across Guelph and Southwestern Ontario.

Good food can do more than feed people. It can bring people together.

Pattie Mon is that belief folded into pastry: a handmade take on the Caribbean's most iconic comfort food. Laminated dough, boldly seasoned fillings and the attention you'd expect from a chef-driven kitchen, in something you can eat with one hand. Find it at select retailers, pop-ups, community events and HighR Catering experiences around Guelph.

    Community

    Food has always brought people together. HighR works with local organizations, universities, youth programs and cultural initiatives to create spaces where food starts the conversation.

    Craftsmanship

    Convenience should never mean compromise. From Pattie Mon's laminated pastry to slow-built fillings and catered dishes, everything is made with attention to technique, flavour and tradition. Handmade matters, and you can taste it.

    Culture & Storytelling

    Food carries stories. Through food, events, art and creative collaborations, HighR celebrates Caribbean culture and makes room for people from every background to gather, share and connect. Every pattie is part of that story.

Growing with intention

Growing, the right way.

The goal is clear: build Pattie Mon into a recognized Canadian Caribbean food brand and bring handmade Caribbean comfort food to more communities across Ontario and beyond, without cutting a single corner that makes it good.

Community. Creativity. Culture. And really good food.
