I absolutely loved the catering services provided by Cooking with a Star! Chef Kendra was professional, attentive, and responsive when helping me select menu options for my sister’s repast. Although it was a difficult and an emotional occasion, Chef Kendra was compassionate, supportive, and thorough in explaining the services she offered. She made the process easier during a challenging time, and I truly appreciated her professionalism and care. I would definitely recommend Cooking with a Star to anyone looking for exceptional catering services for their future events. Thank you, Chef Kendra, for your outstanding service and support!

About Cooking with a Star
With over 15 years of professional chef experience, I specialize in creating unforgettable dining experiences for weddings, birthdays, corporate events, and more. I use only fresh, high-quality ingredients and my own custom seasoning blends to ensure every dish is packed with flavor. I’ve cooked for celebrity clients, hosted my own cooking show “Cooking with a Star,” and worked with major companies like Amazon, Green Sky, and Merchante Solutions. My events have taken me from Atlanta to the Caribbean, the Bahamas, and London — but whether local or international, my promise is the same: top-tier food, flawless service, and fair pricing. My passion is cultural cuisine — Cuban, Caribbean, Ethiopian, and Portuguese are specialties — but I also love working with clients to design custom menus that fit their taste and event vision perfectly. At the heart of it all, I believe food creates memories. Your guests will remember how they felt when they shared a meal together — and I take pride in making those moments special.

I waited a few days to write this because I couldn't find the words to thank Kendra for catering my wedding. I told her I wanted a good, culturally rich, and flavorful menu, not traditional wedding food... and she knocked it out of the park. I wish I had gotten to eat more, but as a couple, it was impossible. Everyone was RAVING about the food! (I'm attaching some screenshots!)
I hired CWAS for my wedding and two weeks later I am STILL hearing raving reviews from my guests. Kendra and her team were incredible, so much fun, and great hospitality. I’d recommend her for any event and will be using her for future events!!!
Kendra and her team were a joy to work with. She was very responsive to my questions and the food was superb. My guests ranted and raved about how delicious the food was. Her staff was very friendly and did a stellar job.
Awesome service and staff. Will definitely be hiring again!
I would like to praise all 5 areas of work quality, professionalism, responsiveness, value and punctuality. An amazing service with delicious food. The entire team is a force. I highly recommend to anyone. The event catered was a dinner for the 4 cities of Henry County and at minimum 7 other agencies we conduct business with. Everyone raved about the fare and service! Thank you again Cooking with a Star! Continue to Shine Bright!
Kendra and her team were amazing and absolutely exceeded expectations! Kendra and her team were very professional, welcoming and all around just the BEST. Kendra even came into my bridal suite and helped one of my bridesmaids with her dress! My point is you can tell she is a very genuine person and wants to make your event very special. I would hire her and her team ANYTIME.
Good service and food! The tea was supposed to be unsweetened and they forgot about that. Otherwise everything was great.
The food was very good. The servers were very nice and hospitable.
She was absolutely fabulous!! Her food was not only the tastiest food I have ever put in my mouth, most of it was healthy! Organic, vegan, flavorful, taste explosion in your mouth! She made me gluten free organic peach cobbler that all my friends who do not make healthy eating a priority even loved! I did not tell them it was gluten free until after they tasted it! Her potato salad!!!! OMG! As a southern born and bred native Atlantan, I thought I made good potato salad! NO COMPARISON IN THE WHOLE WIDE SOUTHERN REGION OR ANYWHERE I HAVE EVER TRAVELED! Desserts, her mini deserts of lactose banana pudding in edible pie crusts were heaven. Then she had bite sized ice cream cones with key lime pie and some with chocolate mousse. Again, my friend said she had already eaten five and had to walk away so she would not eat any more! I would recommend her highly, but I kinda want to keep her all to myself!! Loved her, her staff, her food, her as a person etc. I have a lifelong friend and sister from a different mother! In the enclosed picture, the bbq is from Big Daddy Q. Her healthier food was further down the line and much better in my opinion. I imagine since I do not eat meat, that might sway my recommendation just a little😉
