In contract with Classic Cuisine Catering . Chef Kolnita has been very responsive. She has helped us build a great menu as per our liking for the event within a short time period. We are looking forward to our event this week. Updated review : Our event was a success . Chef Kolnita’s passion for cooking is exceptional . The food was delicious specially the Chicken Cordon Bleu. She was a very passionate teacher to our daughter who learned step by step all the delicacies that were prepared. She had amazing food stories to share. It was a lifetime experience for our daughter .
