Chef Lara Hicks grew up in the Oak Hill area of Morganton and after graduation from Freedom High School continued education at Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte NC. After spending about 8 years between school and teaching culinary classes to the refugee community in east Charlotte, Lara moved back home and found herself making random meals and cakes for friends of the family.
Not too long after moving home, Lara started an LLC and continued with private chef work through the present time and now holds the title for 3rd Best in Burke for caterer in 2023. She currently resides in Morganton with her sweet boyfriend, who assists with many private events and private classes. When she isn't teaching special cooking classes at the Burke Arts Council each month, Lara loves feeding her community and has a wholesome approach to teaching and creating beautiful food sourced from as many local farms/markets as possible.
