Profiles
Chef Frank Sekyra started his career while in high school with a local pizzeria that made everything from scratch. This early foundation formed his passion for food and willingness to not compromise quality. Just after high school he took the kitchen manager position at Bottega Café in Birmingham, Alabama. Chef Sekyra then accepted a position at Hot and Hot Fish Club, and within four months was promoted to AM Sous Chef. In 2005, Chef Sekyra had an opportunity to demonstrate his culinary talents with Satterfield’s Restaurant as the executive chef. Just a few years later, Chef Sekyra was sought after to help elevate The Country Club of Birmingham’s food program as the executive chef. He then joined Jim-N-Nick’s Bar-B-Q as the General Manager of the Hwy 280 Training Store. Now, joining Five Star Event Catering allows Chef Frank to re-embrace his passion for culinary arts.
Elizabeth Evans is the Catering Director for Five Star Event Catering. She has more than a decade of experience in managing and coordinating large catered functions. She started her catering career with Vincent's Markets, becoming accomplished in all aspects of catering operations prior to taking her current role at Five Star Event Catering.
Evelyn Fancher stared her cooking career at Shoney’s Restaurant in 1977. She worked there until 1985 when she took a position at the Wynfree as the Pantry Chef. Being greatly influenced by the people she worked with, she developed a desire to further her culinary knowledge and went to work with Vincent’s Market by Brookwood Village in 1990. Evelyn worked her way through the ranks and eventually became the kitchen manager. She held that position for fifteen years until Vincent’s Market shut their doors. The timing could not have been any better as the development of Five Star Event Catering was taking place to be the exclusive caterer of Barber Motorsports Park in 2005.
