As a birthday present, we did a cooking class with Kathryn and had the best time. We chose the Syrian menu and Kathryn taught us so many fun facts about the region and food. She is a true delight and the meal was excellent. Those spiced potato cakes were to die for! I would love to try one of her other menus or wine pairings in the future. This makes a great gift or special experience when guests visit. Highly recommend! read more

Kathryn made my 10th wedding anniversary such a wonderful experience. We celebrated in Pismo Beach with our kids and my mother in law, and rented an AirBnB right on the beach. From the moment I reached out to Kathryn, she was warm and friendly, detailed, upfront, responsive, and very communicative. She even worked with me to offer something new for the main course which was a new recipe she just tried for a recent event, and asked lots of questions to ensure that the food she was going to make suited our preferences. Kathryn accommodated our request to have dinner on the patio, and her presentation was amazing! Kathryn's warmth and friendly personality extended to the evening of the dinner as well. Kathryn's food was SO delicious!! Everyone gobbled everything up, and my kids couldn't get enough of the tzatziki! The wines that Kathryn chose for the courses paired very well. The fish was soooo good that there was nothing left on anyone's plates! Everything was delicious - shrimp fritter, tzatziki / pita, pomegranate salad, orange roughy with veggies and cous cous, and the chocolate mousse that was so light and yummmmmy! We had the full service meal option, and Kathryn explained all the courses and the wine nicely throughout. A huge plus was that our kitchen was spotless at the end of the evening, which was so nice not to have to worry about cleaning up at the end of the night. What an amazing experience - thank you Kathryn for making our anniversary dinner so memorable! If you are vacationing in Pismo Beach, or even if you live in the area, I would highly recommend that you reach out to Kathryn! read more

Kathryn helped make my fiancé's 30th birthday dinner/unexpected engagement celebration a special one. Kathryn was such a pleasure to work with from beginning to end! She took the time to answer all of my questions & was incredibly accommodating. She also seems like such a lovely person & that really translates over to her business & to the food she prepares with love. The dinner was incredible! Every element worked flawlessly together & everything was delicious. Everything was fresh & beautiful! I also wanted to utilize her knowledge of wines & asked her to pair a couple of wines with the meal & both bottle she chose were fantastic! Both wines complemented the meal well (of course). 10/10 would work with Kathryn again if I'm ever back in Pismo Beach celebrating. read more

Kathryn was absolutely a joy to work with. The bride requested a private cooking class for her bachelorette weekend. Kathryn was willing to travel to our house rental, bring all the cooking supplies and ingredients needed, and work with me to tweak her pre-planned menu to accommodate our dietary needs. She was quick to respond to communication before the event, made sure everyone was as involved as they wanted to be during the class, and used downtime to get to know our group. Thank you for giving us a great memory, Kathryn! read more

What a find! I was looking for help with my 2021 Thanksgiving family dinner when I stumbled upon Kathryn's Kuisine. I knew that she specialized in Mediterranean and Cajun cooking, but she also incorporated some of MY own ideas. For example, she made a porchetta-style turkey breast for our small gathering, and a bastilla for the night before T-day which was excellent. One of the things Kathryn does is to prepare rather generous servings, making for a certain amount of left-overs; and the left-over bastilla was still a big hit when reheated the next day. I've worked with many caterers in my life, but what Kathryn presents is top notch. Working with her was a wonderful surprise and pleasure. Thank you, Kathryn's Kuisine! read more

Kathryn catered a delicious Brunch for 20 people with a wonderful variety, which was beautifully presented . She made 2 large Frittatas, one which was vegetarian and the other one with meat. She served it with Greek yogurt with strawberries and blueberries, fresh veggies from the Farmer's Market with hummus, and fresh homemade Banana Bread. She delivered it all ready to serve on beautiful white dishes. Everyone raved about all of the dishes and all had seconds, which is the perfect compliment! I reached out to several caterers through Yelp, when I realized that I was not going to be able to make all of the food for this important occasion. Kathryn responded very quickly and was so helpful with menu suggestions, as well as being very open to my questions and suggestions. She is a wonderfully talented and creative chef and I highly recommend her. She saved me and my guests were treated to a delicious and creative Brunch that I could never have made myself! read more

I was first introduced to Kathryn's Kuisine at a Christmas party that she had catered for. I had the Turkish Patlicanli Kebap and it was so amazing. So much I had to have her make some for my birthday. Kathryn is so kind and very talented for putting together a yummy entree for my birthday feast. The flavor of the chicken and veggies were delicious and all the ingredients were fresh. The rice was perfectly seasoned to accommodate the dish as well. The portion was generous and was enough to feed my party of 12. I will most definitely have Kathryn's Kuisine cater for me in the future. read more

What a great catering class! I highly recommend it to anyone.

We hired Kathryn to cater my husband's birthday party. One of her specialties is middle eastern food, which we love, and we wanted to have a 100% plant based meal so we knew this cuisine would adapt well. She worked with us to fit our special needs and modify her recipes. She came up with the menu ideas based on our preferences. The food was beautiful and more delicious than I had imagined, despite my already high expectations. Kathryn was diligent to stay in touch about every detail and work to meet our every wish. We were thrilled with the food. Our guests, who were not plant based eaters, found the food delicious as well. A huge success. read more
