Plan a holiday party
Meet Chef Marlene.
Chef Marlene Faulkner was born in Brooklyn, and her cooking carries the influence of two grandmothers and the generous tables they set, where no one ever left hungry. She founded Knife & Faulk to share that kind of hospitality. Brooklyn roots, Texas ingredients, and a table that is always set for one more guest.
Countless events later, most of the people we cook for are people we have cooked for before. To us, there is no higher compliment.
Hotel standard. Home warmth.
One team
The chefs who plan your menu are the ones cooking it, and the people serving your guests know the room before the doors open. Nothing is handed off to a stranger on the day.
A table worth gathering around
We style every display the way a designer approaches a room, with height, color, light, and the places your guests will naturally drift. When you want the whole space designed, KF Designs carries it.
We remember you
We remember the dish your guests asked about, the cousin who cannot have nuts, and the anniversary coming up next spring. That is how hospitality should feel.
What our clients say
This is the third time we hired Knife and Faulk for our annual Holiday Party and as usual the food, display, and service was outstanding! We had a gingerbread themed party this year and the design was perfect!! I highly recommend Chef Marlene and her team!!
We flew in from out of state to host a bridal shower. All I knew about Knife and Faulk was what I saw on their website so I was nervous but WOW! I am thrilled that I chose them. Taylor was so professional and calm and walked me through my choices. We decided on the pancake brunch buffet and my guests raved about the food and fought over the leftovers.
We recently had the pleasure of booking Marlene through Knife & Faulk for a private chef experience, and it was nothing short of exceptional. The menu was completely customized to our tastes, and every dish was executed beautifully. We will absolutely be booking again!
