                                  CERTIFICATION

   I, Barry L. Nogay, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB of Syndicated Food
   Service International, Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement
   of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
   the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
   statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered
   by this report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
   information included in this report, fairly present in all material
   respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
   of the small business issuer as of, and for, the periods presented in
   this report.

4. The small business issuer's other certifying officer and I are
   responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
   procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
   for the small business issuer and have:

        a. Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
           disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
           supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
           small business issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries,
           is made known to us by others within those entities,
           particularly during the period in which this report is being
           prepared;


        b. Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's
           disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report
           our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure
           controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by
           this report based on such evaluation; and


        c. Disclosed in this report any change in the small business
           issuer's internal control over financial reporting that occurred
           during the small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter
           (the small business issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case
           of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is
           reasonably likely to materially affect, the small business
           issuer's internal control over financial reporting; and

5. The small business issuer's other certifying officer and I have
   disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
   financial reporting, to the small business issuer's auditors and the
   audit committee of the small business issuer's board of directors (or
   persons performing the equivalent functions):

        a. All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
           design or operation of internal control over financial reporting
           which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the small
           business issuer's ability to record, process, summarize and
           report financial information; and

        b. Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
           other employees who have a significant role in the small
           business issuer's internal control over financial reporting.
