Booked for Birthday party

Chef Jon Gillham is an excellent communicator who helped with menu choice guidance for adults and suitable adjustments/adaptation for children in planning annd preparing our special lunch party celebrating my husband’s 80th birthday. This took place over the Easter weekend and I booked him early. His communication by email, and later by phone, was prompt, friendly, and reassuring. He cooked a delicious three course meal for 11 adults and 5 children that was serve served by his wife. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, each course complementing the next. All aspects of the meal went according to plan, as did his thorough clean up afterwards. Jon is prepared for any eventuality and he has a calm, professional, friendly presence. I recommend Jon Gillham whole heartedly.

I would strongly recommend Mario. He made the selection process easy and was very flexible. He arrived on time and delivered an excellent 5 course dinner for 10 people. All guests enjoyed the experience. He was very personably and left the kitchen spotless when he departed. We will utilise his services again in the future.
