Testimonials

Listen to what BarlowGirl had to say about Country Club Market

I have had the pleasure of experiencing both the classes and having catered events with Chef Terrie. The classes are very interactive and Terrie makes the evening both a learning experience and a fun way to interact with friends. She has great enthusiasm that is catching when you attend the classes. As far as catering goes, Chef Terrie has catered both a small event for me (appetizers for a work function for 4) and a dinner (dinner for 15). Chef Terrie treated both events equally as to importance. The food was excellent and the guests raved. What made the events so successful was the planning with Chef Terrie. She worked with me well in advance to help me figure out the best food to serve given the people attending and the space in my home. She thought of things I didn’t that helped the events go exceedingly well. As for Terrie herself, she is very professional and personable – given these were work functions her professionalism was of extreme importance to me. I will not hesitate to use Terri again for any size event – I may have her just fix me dinner sometime!

I have been fortunate to have attended demo classes hosted by Chef Terrie. There, I learned to grill salmon with a great recipe that my friends and family really enjoy (even one who swore she never liked salmon until she tried it Terrie’s way). I also learned how to bring the blow torch from the garage to the kitchen. Terrie catered a wonderful lunch for my business. The salad included the tiniest kiwi I have ever seen. She finds the most amazing ingredients. Terrie brought all of the food and equipment for a hands-on tapas class at my home. Everyone had a different kitchen comfort level and Terrie really did a great job of helping everyone feel confident in the kitchen. The dishes were delicious, fun to make and easy to repeat!

We really enjoyed participating in two dinners/cooking classes by Chef Terrie. The classes are designed for social interaction as well as to learn new cooking tips and recipes. The setting is very relaxing, and gives everyone the opportunity to mix and socialize. And the food is wonderful! We recently hosted a dinner with the help of Country Club Market for the executive team at Vermeer Manufacturing. The event was a success and we received very positive comments from everyone who attended. Chef Terrie does an excellent job and we recommend her class to others who are looking to host important business events.

Country Club Market and Chef Terrie Kohl are my preferred caterer for intimate and personal gatherings. The food is exquisite, the presentation is customized to your event and you never have to worry about details. But most importantly, once you meet Chef Terrie you'll want to use her over and over again. She is a very talented chef, personable and provides value added service to your event." "I've had the opportunity to attend Chef Terrie Kohl's cooking classes. The evening was filled with great ideas, fabulous food, cherished time with friends and FUN!! Chef Terrie makes you feel at home and works closely with you on making gourmet cooking easy and less time consuming. I wish my scheduled allowed me to join her on a weekly basis.

Chef Terrie Kohl is AMAZING and her food is incredibly DELICIOUS! She has catered two Christmas parties for me and a private party for my Dad's ninetieth birthday. I am so grateful I could sit and enjoy my family while someone else worried about the food. Both you and your guests will fall in love with her just as we have. I can call on her for large or small events, I adore her!

When I first came on board at Positive Impact Media/Pulse99.5, I quickly learned how great it was to work with Terrie. Our golf outing was scheduled for my very first day, but was postponed due to rain. Even though Terrie had spent hours preparing food for us, she was more than accommodating in making arrangements to find other uses for what we could not use, as well as working harder than asked when we rescheduled for a later date. It is awesome how God brings the right people together at the right time, and Terrie certainly was the right person for our catering job.

Wells Bed & Breakfast has had numerous events held in our facilities where Country Club Market was the hired caterer. Everyone, from small groups to large groups, have raved about the food and their total experience. Terrie has been very easy to work with, professional and open to the needs of each individual guest. We recommend her again and again."

What a great way to entertain clients to something different. It's amazing how many people like to cook and it gives you the opportunity to find out more about the clients that are most important to us. Many of us want to learn how to eat more healthy but still have a dinner that tastes good. Both get accomplished with Terrie. Of all the events I do this is one of my high net worth clients favorite. In fact many of them come back with their own groups. Terrie is great to work with and is very patient with those of us that aren't the greatest in the kitchen.

Whether you are a beginner in the kitchen or one-step away from culinary school, Terrie provides the recipes for the menu for your class to cook right in her kitchen; when you are finished preparing the meal, the class sits down together to enjoy what everyone has prepared. We have been holding cooking classes for three years, and we still have not used the same recipe or menu twice. We have held a Thai-Asian Class; Italian Class; Seafood Class; Outdoor Summer Grilling Class – whatever you have a palate for, Terrie can prepare a unique menu! When the evening is over, you take home the menus and recipes of all the courses prepared! Fun and close-knit atmosphere! Thank you,

Chef Terrie's class showed us how "home cooking" can become "gourmet" with just a few tricks of the trade; an epicure's delight! Chef Terrie made our event very special by providing food that is tantalized the taste buds, and service that made the host and hostess feel like royalty. When can we do this again!?!?!?
