Booked for Hen party

I had good communication with Chef Silvestre before the event. One of our group was a pescatarian so happily cooked a different meal to the meat eaters. Professional and on time. Food was lovely and plates were clean! Recommend.

Booked for Birthday party

Could not speak highly enough of Anthony. We had a family birthday and Anthony accommodated for everybody. Not only was his food fantastic but his communication, accomodation and personality throughout was fantastic. Could not rate Anthony highly enough.

Booked for Private party

Mike was absolutely fantastic, catered for a party of 8 for my 50th Birthday. We had the 5 course option that included the pan fried Salmon. Every course was delicious. As soon as Mike arrived he was friendly and professional, he explained how the evening would work, got familiar with the kitchen and tools and then set to work. Every course was delivered and a full explanation about each dish was given. He catered for a couple of dietary requirements as well, Vegetarian and Gluten free which was excellent. The quality of the food was brilliant and better than restaurants in my opinion. The flavours were amazing. He made sure that every course was cleared and gave us time between each one to really appreciate what we had. The kitchen was left spotless. Would highly recommend Mike and we would absolutely use him again

Nick travelled to camber sands to help us celebrate a 50th Birthday. The meal he cooked for us, an 8 course tasting menu, was absolutely delicious the food was amazing and every course was beautiful. Nick was helpful in the run up to the event and let us tweak parts of the menu to suit our tastes etc. Nick ensured that the kitchen was spotless before he left and was polite and chatty the whole time he was with us! Would highly recommend and would definitely use Nick again in the future. Thanks Nick!
