I'd heard good things about their cooking classes and catering, so got curious about whether they offer smaller à la carte options. Lucky me, they do! I got an individual side of the roasted butternut squash and it was delicious. Smoky with a touch of sweetness topped with fresh herbs. Healthy home cooking without the work? That's a win!

I would go back to experience one of the classes, but not ever for the Chopped challenge.

Chef Hassan did a private group cooking lesson for us in San Francisco as part of a surprise…read morebirthday celebration with my boyfriend and friends (four of us).The session acommodated for all experience levels including first-timers and allowed everyone to contribute. Chef Hassan brought along all the ingredients and cooking utensils / appliances we needed. We did end up using some of our personal kitchen appliances, so I recommend keeping those at hand. I loved the cultural tidbits he provided around each dish allowing me to learn more about Morrocan culture. He also demonstrated a flair for style and set up our cooking station with a lovely mini cornucopia from which we pulled our fresh veggies and herbs. The engaging experience and delicious food -- coupled with his efficiency (we did some quick modifications to ensure the meal was cooked in time), enthusiasm, and friendliness -- made for one of the most memorable cooking experiences of my life! I would definitely recommend Chef Hassan and his services to my friends and family :-)

Garlic whipped potatoes which were just the right consistency to accompany the main course Creamy chicken Marsala that I had to get two helpings of because I couldn't get enough & I don't even like mushrooms.

I called Kendra on a Friday to cater a business luncheon for five on the following Monday. I gave…read moreher very little direction - that there were two vegetarians in the group, and that was it. She prepared a BEAUTIFUL meal of lemon pepper chicken (for the meat eaters) and veggie pasta salad for the vegetarians. The meal came in four courses: salad (she brought three dressings), entrée, dessert (cookies individually wrapped for each person), and fruit after our meal. She arrived 45 minutes before I did (I was flying in from Baltimore) to set up, and the table scape was beautiful. She brought her own linens, real ceramic dishes, glass glasses, etc. And on top of that, she served us throughout the meal. Basically, Kendra brought the four star dining experience of a restaurant to us (and on very short notice, I reiterate). She is capable of doing both small parties and larger functions such as weddings (up to 500 people). If you need catering in the Charlotte area, I highly highly highly recommend Kendra. You cannot go wrong.

My daughter (the future bride) planned her wedding reception with Chef Kendra of Kraving Catering. She often raved about Chef Kendra's help throughout the process: "She is wonderful to work with! Chef Kendra is such a big help! She gets right back to me! She has wonderful ideas!" I met Chef Kendra prior to the actual wedding. She and her crew were personable, prompt and professional. My daughter was thrilled with the delicious desserts, as were our guests. When Chef Kendra found out how our wedding cake baker bowed out at the last minute, she baked the bride and groom a special gluten-free wedding cake for them! (as a wedding gift to them) It was a wonderful relief to know we didn't have to think about tablecloths and table decorations; Kraving Catering provided them and they were lovely. They were a joy to work with; we highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.
