Chef Kahlil
has been practicing the art of fine food preparation for over two
decades. His training began in the late 80’s creating some of his
family’s favorite dishes at home. After working in various restaurants
throughout high school, Kahlil decided to
“formalize” his training when he pursued a career in the illustrious
United States Army. During his tenure in the US Army Kahlil worked his way up the ranks to Sous Chef.  Gaining vast experience with various cuisines, Kahlil had the opportunity to work in one of the busiest units at Ft. Bragg that served over 4200 meals per day. 


While on tour at Ft. Riley, KS, Kahlil moonlighted as Sous Chef for Clyde’s Steakhouse and Italian eatery. Working at Clyde’s created Kahlil‘s strong passion in Italian cuisine. After dedicating nearly six years of service, Kahlil
decided to learn about the front of the house so he took on a position
as Assistant General Manager at Don Pablo’s. After completing his
management training at Don Pablo’s, Kahlil
quickly found his way back to the what he affectionately calls the
“heart of the house” in the kitchen! He decided to move from the front
of the house into the position of Kitchen Manager to hone his skills
with Mexican meals!


Having cooked for many years professionally and for friends and family Kahlil was encouraged to establish a company that has a vision of “Making Your Culinary Wishes a Reality.” So in 1999, Chef Kahlil
made his start as a personal chef by catering parties for friends,
family and colleagues as a way to make extra money. Word quickly spread
of his innovative, tasty and soulful dishes, and soon “Catering To Your
Whims” was born. Catering To Your Whims… is an extension of Chef Kahlil‘s creative techniques. 

Chef Kahlil is known
for taking his passion for using creativity, mixing exotic herbs and
seasonings into every meal, and sharing it with others.” Chef Kahlil‘s specialties include Classic American, Seafood Entrees, Creole Cuisine and Nouveau Soul food with Caribbean accents.
