Celine And Company Inc

Celine and Company Catering was founded by Celine and Michael Lurey in 1993 and has remained a leader in serving Asheville’s finest catering cuisine. Starting as an expression of Celine’s love of entertaining and an outlet for her locally-known and sought out cuisine, the business has grown tremendously over the years. In January of 2015, Celine and Michael chose to embrace the freedom of retirement and sold Celine’s namesake business to long-time Chef, Kim Lloyd. Kim joined Celine and Company Catering as Executive Chef in 2006. She was formerly Executive Chef of Pawley’s Plantation Golf Resort and Thoroughbreds Restaurant, both in the Myrtle Beach area. She is a graduate of The Florida Culinary Institute and an American Culinary Federation Gold Medalist who has led numerous award-winning teams in regional culinary competitions. Kim also had the pleasure of assisting her South Florida mentors in an acclaimed Caribbean-influenced dinner at Manhattan’s celebrated James Beard House
