Our Story
Welcome to Cedar and Thyme, where every dish is a celebration of heritage, passion, and the art of culinary storytelling.
Our Roots
Our name says it all. Cedar represents our deep connection to Lebanon, a land where the majestic cedar tree has long been a symbol of strength and resilience. This enduring emblem, featured on our national flag, reflects our commitment to tradition and quality. Thyme, on the other hand, is a heartfelt tribute to my grandmother’s nurturing spirit. In her garden, where every sprig of thyme was grown with love and care, I discovered the magic of flavor and the importance of preserving family recipes.
Our Journey
Inspired by the vibrant tastes of Levantine cuisine, Cedar and Thyme was born out of a desire to share a piece of our rich cultural heritage with the world. Based in San Luis Obispo County, our journey began with a simple idea: to bring the authentic, bold flavors of our homeland to every event we cater. Over time, that idea has blossomed into a full-fledged passion, one that transforms every gathering into an unforgettable experience.
Our Culinary Philosophy
At Cedar and Thyme, we believe that food is more than just sustenance—it’s an expression of love, tradition, and creativity. We carefully source the freshest ingredients, blending time-honored techniques with modern twists to create charcuterie boards and catering experiences that are as visually stunning as they are delicious. Each plate we prepare carries a story: a story of ancient recipes passed down through generations, of lush landscapes and gardens, and of the simple joy that comes from sharing a meal with loved ones.
What We Offer
Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, our bespoke catering services are designed to elevate your event. From artfully arranged grazing tables to meticulously crafted charcuterie boards, every detail is thoughtfully curated to capture the essence of Levantine flavors and the warmth of family traditions.
