come home to Kentucky with caterBuzz!!!

When caterBuzz put out the call to buzzie members that we would be blogging in the Kentucky area for the ICA caterArts 2010 culinary learning experience we got a more than a few responses from members wanting to share their catering expertise with the caterBuzz community – but none more welcoming than the email from Regina Niece of 4 Star Catering

in Appalachian Mountains in Red Fox, Kentucky, urging us to “hurry home”. 

With a warm and inviting invitation like that, who could resist?

Regina and husband Jimmy have an 80 acre spread in the beautiful Kentucky Mountains, with a commercial commissary kitchen built right next door to their lovely home, complete with wrap around porches and countless rocking chairs, hammocks and swings.  The property includes a fully stocked catch and release pond that can host family re-unions, weddings and corporate get-togethers, as well as a pumpkin patch area where local school children look forward to the pumpkin party jack-lantern delights yearly.

In addition to events on their own property,  4 Star Catering (named for their 4 sons) provides off site catering in 3 states – Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia.
