Our Chefs

Chef Carla's Story

Chef Carla Lopez- Vidal is from Lima, Peru and taught herself to cook at eight years old. Her passion for cooking runs through her veins. Carla moved to the United States fourteen years ago, with a Bachelor’s degree in interior design. Though she enjoyed what she was doing, she didn’t love it. So ten years ago Carla decided to make a career change and wanted to pursue being a chef. As a wife and a mother of two young boys, Carla stayed motivated, with the help of her supportive family, in making her dreams a reality.

Carla received her culinary training at the International Culinary Center in Campbell CA. There she had the opportunity to enlighten her peers about the evolution of Peruvian gastronomy. She introduced ingredients from Peru to the French kitchen, leaving her mark as a new up and coming chef in the culinary industry.

Carla enjoys working with pastry on her spare time and has grown to be exceptional at it. She creates and designs cakes of all sizes for any occasion.

Chef Kiah's Story

Chef Kiah Fuller is from San Bernardino, CA. From a young age, Kiah showed a talent for cooking. Her grandmother, Shirley Fontenette and her mother, Patricia Fuller, are her biggest inspirations in the kitchen. Unlike other kids her age, at age 14, Kiah was for certain what she wanted to do for the rest of her life. She wanted to bring people together around her food.

Though Kiah had a challenging upbringing living in a city of immense poverty, but shedidn’t let where she came from define where she was headed. Kiah went on to Pepperdine University and obtained a Bachelors of Business Administration. It was at Pepperdine where she had the opportunity to study abroad in Florence, Italy for a year. In Florence, she was able to work in close collaboration with an Italian Personal Chef, where Kiah fell in love with Italian cuisine.

After Pepperdine, Kiah went on to study at the International Culinary Center in Campbell, CA. It was here where Kiah refined her culinary skills and became a culinary professional fulfilling her externship at the Plumed Horse, a Michelin Star restaurant in Downtown Saratoga. Which later extended to be a full-time position as a pastry line cook after graduation.

Best Catering Service

I am so happy that I chose Far Out Catering to cater my wedding. All of my wedding guests were raving about the amazing food! It was such a hit! Chef Carla is an amazing chef and she is also very pleasant and easy to work with. When I first spoke with Chef Carla I immediately noticed that she had a completely different demeanor than the other caterers I had spoken with. She was enthusiastic, excited and eager to have me try some of her food as soon as possible! And I did! And it was delicious! So of course I decided to go with Far Out Catering for my wedding! Best Choice! Far Out Catering specializes in making all kinds different ethnic foods so they had no problem accommodating my request for Mediterranean food for my wedding, which we wanted because it is our favorite kind of food! Everything was delicious from the Za’atar salmon, to the saffron rice, boulani and Borani Banjan, as well as the dolmas which we had for appetizers. So good! We were so happy that there were left overs because it meant we would get to eat that delicious food for one more day! Her staff were all very professional and we felt so well taken care of at our wedding reception. Carla was also very flexible and open to some last minute changes that I requested such as adding some special sauces and adding some extra guests. She is a pleasure to work with, very communicative and very professional. I would definitely recommend Far Out Catering to anyone who needs excellent food and excellent service for their event. I’m so glad that I chose Far Out Catering for my wedding. The amazing food and service made it a day to always remember.
