Authentic Food
Made With Love
SoozVeen Catering brings authentic Kurdish and Iraqi flavors to gatherings throughout the Seattle area, cooked by two sisters who grew up with these recipes.
Our story
Two sisters, cooking the food they grew up with
SoozVeen Catering is owned and run by two sisters from Kurdistan of Iraq. The recipes, flavors and hospitality come from the way they were raised, where guests are fed generously and no one leaves the table hungry.
Today they cook that same food for families, companies and communities across Seattle.
