Globally inspired Chef with 26 years experience

I am the CEO of CKL Events, with over 26 years of experience in the culinary and events industry. For the past 11 years, I have owned and operated a full-service catering and event company, proudly maintaining a five-star rating on Yelp through consistent quality, creativity, and client satisfaction.

My cuisine is globally inspired, and I am able to execute any style of cooking at any level, from intimate gatherings to large-scale luxury events. My team and I come fully equipped with everything needed to deliver a seamless, elevated experience from start to finish. Bring us an idea, and we will turn it into reality.

I trained at The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, and continued my education in Switzerland, specializing in European chocolate pastry and European culinary arts. This background allows me to blend strong technical foundations with creativity and precision.

My philosophy in the kitchen is simple: great food starts with fresh, high-quality ingredients. You can’t fake great food—and I never try to.

Great experience with Chef Keven! He was very professional and attentive. We designed the menu with him. Everything was delicious!!!

Keven was 10/10 experience and food!

From the very first communication I had with Chef Keven on Take a Chef, I knew he was the right chef for this experience I was curating. He was responsive, clear, collaborative, professional, yet brought his full self to the discussions, making it feel like we were on a fun adventure of culinary delight together. He went above and beyond to make this dinner the perfect dinner for my clients. I'm very very very grateful! Cannot wait to collaborate again!

Kevin was incredible, great company to have in our home and the food was amazing. Beyond that, him and his assistant created a super memorable night for my fiance in I in our home that we will definitely be doing again soon! Highly recommend him for all your food needs!

Fantastic experience and the food was so delicious. Would strongly recommend Keven to anyone!

Chef Keven Lee made an amazing Mediterranean style 4 course meal for meal for my parents 65th and 70th birthdays! He was warm and made the experience memorable for them, and for that I’m forever grateful! He was extremely attentive and flexible and worked with me to make slight alterations to the menu. I highly recommend chef Keven Lee for any occasion!

Chef Kevin is a wonderful and talented chef. Chef Kevin's passion for cooking was seen throughout each course and throughout the cooking process. He was absolutely wonderful and the service was flawless. Each dish was discussed and agreed upon, the ingredients and flavors were outstanding and it was just a 5 plus star experience. You will love Chef Kevin's eye for detail, the flavors, and the individual attention he lavishes upon your party. Chef Kevin responded promptly to my emails/texts and I even got a special face time with him the day before where he showed me the dishes he was cooking! Chef Kevin was also willing to change the location at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances; luckily we did not have to do so, but his willingness to be flexible and his compassion in that circumstance was authentic and so appreciated. Chef Kevin cares about delivering the very best experience and food for his guests. And the kitchen was left spotless!

Chef Kevin was fantastic. He was very communicative throughout the process, beginning with menu prep to assuring me that the meal was well underway the day of. He was punctual and personable and made our evening magical. We will definitely work with him in future.

Chef Keven Lee, aka "Cheven, created an awesome experience for my wife and our guests. We hired Cheven to create a Mediterranean menu for us and everything from starter, appetizers, main dish and dessert were incredible both in presentation and flavors. Additionally, Cheven has a great personality and does an exceptional job of explaining each dish and wine pairing. Cheven and his assistant brought everything for the event and cleaned the kitchen spotlessly before he left. Because of the great experience, several of our guests plan to hire Cheven in the future and we will be sure to do so as well. Big thumbs up!

Chef Keven was great! Very personable, clean, and amazing dishes!

great chef and great food
