I’ve known Marcella and Jack for 2 years now. I’ve been blessed to both eat at their table and have them cater events for me. Marcella’s chocolate cake is absolutely to die for. They offer both healthy and luscious options. Jack hails from the Middle East and his knowledge of their local delights is famous. Marcella is a Zagat Foundation award recipient. Whatever your tastes are, no matter how many guests, Catering with K will be the talk of your event!!! Highly recommend.
