Kendra was such a delight to have & a wonderful experience, Her attention to detail really made it special. It was my first time having a private chef so I wasn’t sure what to expect, she took the time to talk me through the steps and figure out exactly what I was looking for. We decided on a classic southern meal which came out delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection & with love. The service was just as good, Loved Her energy from start to finish! 10/10 would recommend Kendra for your next special event!

Review for Cooking with Kendra
Kendra made our 23rd anniversary truly unforgettable! She came to our home and prepared a very special meal that was both enticing and delicious. Her attention to detail and creativity in crafting the menu made the evening feel so personalized and romantic.
To top it off, she even sang a beautiful song—on key! It was such a lovely and unexpected touch that added a layer of magic to the evening.
I would highly recommend Cooking with Kendra to anyone looking for an intimate, romantic dinner experience in the comfort of their own home. Five stars without hesitation. Thank you, Kendra, for an evening we’ll always cherish!
