About Catering By Cordre
Catering By Cordre is a Charlotte, NC catering company led by Chef Manuel Cordrè, who brings more than 30 years of culinary experience to the business. Before launching his own company, Chef Cordrè spent over a decade as an Executive Chef at Firebird's Wood Fired Grill and previously owned Family Soul, a restaurant in Lexington, Kentucky. He trained formally at Sullivan University, and that combination of restaurant leadership and classical culinary education now shapes the menus his team builds for clients across the region. Based at 1801 Cross Beam Dr., Unit K, in Charlotte, the company caters a wide range of occasions, from corporate lunches and private parties to weddings, fundraisers, and backyard barbecues. Their menu spans breakfast, lunch and dinner banquets, small bites, and desserts, along with dedicated wedding menus, and the business also runs an online ordering system for lunch catering as well as cooking classes for clients who want hands-on culinary instruction. The company describes its guiding approach as one of listening closely to each client's vision: to "listen to our clients wishes and to exceed all expectations with meticulous menu planning, unparalleled service and uncommon creativity." Over the years, that philosophy has translated into more than 200 unique dishes served across upwards of 10,000 events. Catering By Cordre is recognized as a minority- and woman-owned business, and it counts major regional organizations such as the Duke Endowment, Truist, and JLL among its corporate clients, reflecting the trust the company has built for large-scale, detail-driven catering in the Charlotte market.
The company has catered in Charlotte since 2015 and marks 10 years of service, citing 10,000+ events and 100+ clients served daily. Chef Manuel Cordrè previously owned Family Soul, a restaurant in Lexington, KY, then worked as a sous chef at Malone's and rose to Executive Chef over three Bluegrass Hospitality Group venues. He was later an Executive Chef at Firebirds Wood Fired Grill for over 10 years.
