In addition, we appreciated the care and attention given to our family members' food allergies. It was a wonderful evening! We know that preparing food in one kitchen at our location and serving it in another was challenging for Chef and his assistant. We realized we should have added another assistant to make that process more efficient. However it didn't detract from our experience.

Chef K catered my dads 90th birthday for 125 guest. I had no idea what to serve as the average…read moreguest was 65. Chef K provided a menu that was to die for all ages. Baked chicken, mixed veggies, mashed potatoes, gravy and rolls. Let me get started on the star of the menu that guest are still talking to me about. The mashed potatoes and gravy. I have calls asking can she make me a small pan please. They melted in my mouth. They needed no seasoning. Truth be told. I was taking the remainder home and ate them cold. The mixed veggie combo was so fresh and not your mundane peas and carrots. So glad squash was added, dad loves squash, along with green beans, carrots and variety bell peppers. At the last minute I grabbed a bottle of hot sauce for the chicken and took it back home unopened. It was not needed. The chicken was so tender it fell off the bone. YES ! All of it was so good. I have been using Chef K for about 14 years for all of my events. So proud she is taking off in business. If you want a good meal that people will love with that home touch she is your caterer. I've had her do all sides, mac and cheese, green beans. I've had peach cobbler cups for my daughters celebration. Chef K is to go to for your needs. Give her a try. You will not be disappointed. Sadly, I got no pictures as I was tending to dad. This is my forever caterer.
