ABOUT US
OUR STORY
In 1971, the Wong family opened Trey Yuen in Hammond, Louisiana. A labor of high standards and love of service set the stage for the next generation. In 2003, the Wong family purchased the former Hammond Freight Station from Duffy and Donna Gay Bordelon.
Located at the entrance to downtown, 308 S. Cate St. was the perfect spot for their new restaurant! Over the next 1.5 years development continued to preserve and maintain the integrity of the freight station. The Wong family personally completed 75% of the construction! The family kept much of the original building’s character by adding historic items donated by many great people of Hammond.
FULL STEAM AHEAD
On August 19th 2004, Cate Street Seafood Station opened, serving a fresh and delicious seafood buffet. The creation of this restaurant increased walkability and broadened the horizon on the South Side of Downtown. A crucial moment occurred with Hurricane Katrina in 2005, forcing the restaurant to change direction. During this time, Yusuke Kawahara of Little Tokyo relocated to Hammond, and taught Christopher the art of sushi. When Cate Street reopened, it was no longer a seafood buffet. The menu now features seafood, steak, and sushi dishes, transforming Cate Street Seafood Station into the Hammond staple that it is today. The Wong Family is happy to serve and looking forward to the next 20+ years in Leadership, Growth, and Tradition.
