You can count on this company to do what they promise, when they promise! The food was great, the service was great, the one glitch that came up was handled promptly and to our delight! She went over and above the contract to make sure our event was elegant and perfect! The congregation was "wowed"!

All of our guests raved about the food we served at our seminar. It was fresh, different, and delicious. Her desserts are to die for.......brownies, key lime tarts, cheesecake. We had both hot and cold appetizers with the spinach capae tartlets and mini crabcakes being the guest favorites.

Chef Cathy is a wonderful person to work with! We use her services for our business meetings, executive board meetings, and I personally used her for my sister's bridal shower. She is a joy to work with and I know her menu selections will always be delicious, best quality and affordable price. I would HIGHLY recommend The Christian Cullinarian for corporate events, business meetings, or any type of personal event...whether casual or formal, Chef Cathy will make it the best. Great job!

It was a great pleasure to meet Chef Cathy. When planning our event, she was helpful with suggestions and ideas. I wanted this wedding event to be a little different, and she helped me to accomplish just that. The prices were good and so was the food. The service and professionalism were excellent.

My father passed away in June of this year and I wanted to ensure that all who came to pay their respects and remember his life were treated with a sumptuous meal. I hired the Christian Culinarian. The food was very delicious and presented with love and care. Everyone who came thought the meal elegant and tasty. Chef Cathy worked lovingly with me to plan the meal and cater to the special needs of a few of the guests ( 2 needed vegetarian meals and 2 needed gluten free). I ordered pasta primavera with chicken picatta as the main course. Although not called for, it was plated over fresh spinach, which wilted with the heat fronm the cooked pasta - ooh la la. The vegetables in the primavera were grilled - an extra special touch. I cannot say enough good things about the business. How can you top excellent food and loving service? Cathy also emphasized that she wanted to present the best package to me at the best price. I truly believe that is what I got. Thank you Chef Cathy... you and your staff are one in a million.

All of our guests were blessed and impressed by the wonderful service and the beautifully presented food. It was all hot and delicious! The staff were gracious and attentive to everyone's needs. Michael went above and beyond to acommodate our special scheduling problems, and all with a gallant smile and a "No problem!" Everyone loved the fruit tree presentation, which added a special touch. In every aspect of our business together Chef Cathy was professional, accommodating, and communicative. I highly recommend The Christian Culinarian.

Superb Catering for My Father's Memorial Service

We chose Chef Cathy and The Christian Culinarian after my mother read an article about her food ministry in the local paper. My father passed away after 85 great years on this earth and we wanted to serve a light lunch at the reception following his memorial service at St. Timothy's Lutheran Church in Melbourne. We met the week before with Chef Cathy and she pointed out some of the great luncheon items she made for light lunches. We decided to select the wraps trays, some yummy sandwiches, Chinese cashew salad, the pasta salad, a tray of quesadillas, and three soups. Let me tell you, the shrimp bisque was so smooth and loaded with shrimp that not a drop of it remained when we finished our lunch! The Christian noodle soup that Chef Cathy gives away was far superior to anything Wolfgang Puck can make. The wraps were generously - and deliciously - filled and the sandwiches were superb. If you need delicious foods for a reception that folks will compliment you about, please contact Chef Cathy and her staff at The Christian Culinarian.

Simply Perfect

I was in town with a television shoot for 2 weeks and even with the heat, the bugs and the long hours, sitting down for lunch prepared by Christian Culinarian made everything feel like heaven. The food was delicious beyond words. Everything was home-made with care and precision and that love for cooking really showed in the food. Chef Cathy and her team were such a delight as well. Very professional yet very welcoming to be around. I highly recommend Christian Culinarian for any of your catering needs.

Wedding Reception Rave!

I found Chef Cathy while researching caterers for an upcoming reception and was immediately taken by her welcoming attitude and enthusiasm. Her prices were competitive and she assisted me in all aspects of planning with great advice and suggestions. She has gathered a team of event professionals all deserving of that title. At the event the food was wonderful and she was on hand from appetizers through dinner personally overseeing the service and ready to answer questions or provide for any request of our guests. The greatest thing about working with Chef Cathy was that I found a friend, not just someone wanting a sale, who was truly interested in me and my family as people, not just customers.

Excellent Catering

Having been in the corporate world for 55 years, Westinghouse and Mitsubishi Corp., I was involved in many national meetings and many involved catering food. Excellent food and excellent service was imperative!



When I first met Chef Cathy, I was impressed by her integrity. She demonstrates Christian values in her profession. She is passionate about her profession! The food is always of the highest quality and the presentation and display is always first class.



I have recommended her services to a large group of companies as well as office groups and friends. I will continue to recommend her to anyone for any event and any occasion. I have never heard of a dissatisfied customer.

Tastefully presented and delicious

Chef Kathy was a pleasure to work with. She provided a buffet dinner for 28 business guests. Her timing was impeccable. The Chicken Parmesan was moist and delicious. The brownies were to die for. It was a great way to start the business meeting. She is my caterer of choice.

Dinner for 2

I was very hesitant when I first contaced Chef Cathy at The Christian Culinarian due to the nature of my request. 'Dinner for 2' outdoors! I was fearful that it would not be worth the time and trouble. Was I ever surprised!! Chef Cathy instantly set my mind at ease and was genuinely excited to do this. She not only discussed the details of what I had in mind, she also made great suggestions for the menu. She was very helpful in the task of finding the perfect location for this event as well.. She left nothing out and between her delicious food and her wonderful attention to details we had an AWESOME anniversary dinner. Both my husband and I highly recommend Chef Cathy for any event you are planning.

Anniversary Surprise

Sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due and now is the time. My wife had contacted Chef Kathy to prepare a surpise anniversary dinner for us and was I surprised. I was taken to the park next to the Eau Gallie Libary and presented with a fine dining arrangement. Everything, and I do mean everything, was considered. From the appetizer to the salad to the main course as well as the home made desert, you could not ask for better. On our part, we did nothing other than enjoy the food as well as the service. Despite some weather issues, I was impressed! Please do not take my word for it, call Chef Kathy and talk to her yourself.

First Class in Every Way

The Christian Culinarian first served a luncheon for our small staff that was out of this world! Her professionalism, presentation and preparation were exceptional. We have since used her for two business meetings and again, the food was outstanding and she was first class in every way. On each occasion she has been prompt, extremely well organized and the food (especially the homemade desserts!) have been exceptional. I would highly recommend her to anyone - whether they need personal meals prepared or meals for a larger occasion.

Great food, great price, great service!

We had Chef Cathy cater a surprise 70th birthday party for my mother. We'd had the pleasure of enjoying her food at prior events, but this was our first time personally hiring her. It was an excellent decision. Not only was the food delicious, but the presentation, the promptness, and the professionalism were all top notch. Chef Cathy does what she says she'll do, when she said do it by. All phone calls and emails are promptly returned, and the aspects of the event that fell to her were never a concern for me. She came highly recommended to me, and I absolutely extend that lofty recommendation to anyone who would need her catering services.

We have used The Christian Culinarian for several small events and they were the perfect fit for our affair. Everything is fresh and delicious. The food is reasonably priced for the quality you receive. I would not hesitate to recommend Chef Cathy for any event, large or small.

Reliable and Very Accomodating Caterer!

I have had the pleasure of using Chef Cathy for many events, large and small at my place of business and have found her to be especially reliable and accommodating. Whether it be a continental breakfast for a morning meeting or a hot food luncheon for a group of VIP's, Cathy has always met my budget and provided excellent customer service. As anyone who has to plan business events, it is essential to be able to trust that your caterer will arrive on time and deliver the product you expected. It is my pleasure to recommend Cathy Lawrence!
