A PASSION FOR COOKING
She developed this passion for cooking at the age of six, when her uncle’s encouraged her to stand on a step-stool at the stove to cook them breakfast. While growing up, her desire to serve and feed those in need of great tasting food continued through her high school and college career. She often planned and cooked for many college and organizational events. Known as the College Cook, she often whipped up meals in less than 30 minutes for many of her college friends and visiting family members. By adding her own special, Creole twist to a recipe shared by her friend, Stacy’s Aunt Lorraine, Chandra became known for her Signature Creole Chicken Fettuccine, which contained a special cheese sauce that is unmatched.

While in college, she married her college sweetheart, Patrick, and moved back to her home town, Houston. Her and Patrick, with strong Louisiana roots, began marketing and cooking for Houston organizations, churches and later, after joining, Muhammad Mosque 45. Mentored and supported by many of her friends, family and new spiritual family, Divine Creations Cuisine was born in 2005.
She learned and followed the culinary teachings and science of cooking by reading various books, practicing, watching numerous cooking shows, her mom, dad, aunts, grandparents and her mentor and sister, Valerie Muhammad who sparked the idea to start the catering company. Her and her mentor, Valerie, continue to work together to provide guests and Muslim women and girls the opportunity to become master cooks. In doing so, Valerie and Chandra developed the Mosque 45 Culinary Team.
