We had a unique request - a blind meal.. I explained to Francesco and he catered to this, making it fun and engaging. Very responsive through the planning and on the evening, everything went well.. Food quality was good and Francesco was fun n cheerful, that went well with our dinner vibe. Highly recommend him for a dinner experience!

Booked for Birthday party

Had a wonderful dinner for my husbands 30th and 8 friends. Eugene arrived early and set everything up and was very friendly making sure we enjoyed the experience and also ensured we didn’t have to lift a finger. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted beautiful and suited everyone at the dinner. Communication was good and payment was easy. Well priced for the service we received. Eugene was friendly and a good laugh and made it a really relaxing enjoyable experience. Would 100% recommend

Booked for Wedding

Greg was an extraordinary chef and caterer. He brought everything that was needed for the event and prepared all the food in time. But most importantly, the food he prepared was delicious and of the highest quality - everyone in the event loved every dish. Greg also catered for intolerances to both lactose and gluten without compromising quality. I would hire Greg again without a second thought, and would recommend it to anyone for any event.

Booked for Birthday party

Marmite provided fast and clear responses to all questions. Fantastic list of menu ideas and, if these don’t float your boat, Ian is happy to cook whatever you want! Ian was great value and generous of spirit. Friendly, professional and flexible both in the run up to the event and on the night! Ian, I really appreciated your flexibility on timings on the night, as well as everything else! We enjoyed having you around, the food was spectacular and the kitchen was left spotless. You took any stress out of the evening and I was able to relax and enjoy every moment. A huge thankyou from us all!!
