Attended the Paranormal Pop concert in Salem for Halloween 2025 - what a dope event. Intimate, funky, genuinely a blast - seems like Cook and Co. find niche venues you wouldn’t otherwise get to see - the concert was in an old barn attached to a museum house!
Katrina knows how to make every event a truly special experience for each person in attendance. The way that she hosts brings a welcoming, cozy, and inspiring energy, and she manages the perfect combination of leading the conversations, ensuring everyone feels included, and going with the flow. Her dinner parties are an amazing opportunity to share a meal with new people - I loved swapping stories with people from different backgrounds and hearing their perspectives and histories, and the menu was super creative and delicious. My personal favorite (so far) was the tarot reading and wine pairing!
I cannot speak highly enough about the incredible events I have attended, hosted by Cook & Co. The first event that I still tell people about all the time was in January 2024, where I was able to attend a specially curated Salem Spice Trade themed dinner party. Katrina welcomed us into a historic home right off of the Common in Salem, MA where she cooked a 4 course meal, all inspired by and interwoven with the incredible rich history of this city’s maritime trading past. While dinner was being made, she invited esteemed Salem Historian Vijay Joyce to speak about the history of the Salem Spice trade and the integral part Salem played in building the US economy after the Revolutionary War. He also gave us a tour of the house we were visiting and spoke about the original owner’s past. It was such a remarkable and intimate event, with amazing food and great conversation. Every detail was so perfectly curated and I have so much respect for Katrina and Vijay’s knowledge and hospitality. I showed up a stranger, having just moved to the city recently and was looking for something I could do on my own, and left that evening with an incredible story and a few new friends. If you’re looking for a memorable, rich evening, I couldn’t recommend Cook & Co. more!
Great people. Great events. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed an astrology dinner at the historic Pickering House in Salem and had a magical night! Every detail was considered (we drank cocktails with the same spices imported from the Capitan living in the home) and Katrina is an amazing cook!! Highly recommend!!
Such an incredible night at Pickering House with Cook and Co. Events. The atmosphere was perfection, the food was next-level, and Katrina absolutely nailed it as both host and chef. Fun, intimate, and so thoughtfully done. If you’re thinking about going this is your sign. Can’t wait for the next one! 🍷✨

Katrina was so awesome to work with! She rolled with all the punches! So happy with everything about the experience

Katrina is the dream planner! I went to a painting class she organized and had the time of my life. I have zero artistic skills and she was so patient, encouraging and fun while teaching me. Every detail was so thoughtfully planned out. Katrina knows how to make people feel instantly welcomed and calm. Event skills are 100/100

Loved my experience with Cook & Co! Such a thoughtful event with so many whimsical and personal touches that really made it feel magical. Katrina as a hostess just goes above and beyond, she is literally a DREAM. She worked very closely with everyone to get every detail right. Felt like i was at a friend's house for a dinner party than a catered event. Highly would do again.
Katrina does such a beautiful and inventive job with her events. She is truly creating one of a kind experiences and cultivating spaces for connection!

Special thanks to you all for a fantastic dinner and evening at the Pickering House. It was certainly a highlight of the trip ! The meal was scrumptious and tied in perfectly with the theme. The history lesson and the experience of being in the house was very nice. And most importantly we enjoyed the intimate setting and discussion with the fellow diners
