Amandeep Lines4 Apr 2026

Booked for Celebration

Kash and his colleague recently catered for my wife’s 50th birthday. They were highly professional and courteous from the moment they arrived. It only took 20mins from their arrival for them to be setup and ready to serve food, which they did for a couple of hours. We had three of the most delicious curries we’ve had in a very long time - think high-end Indian restaurant in terms of quality. Remarkable depth of flavour, served with delicious accompaniments. We had loads of food left over as well. We highly recommend Kash and look forward to using him again.

Booked for Corporate Function

Edward was helpful, accommodating and went out of his way with oroviding a custom quote to suit our event and our needs. He went the extra mile by bringing ice, napkins, plates and anything else we needed to make the event as stress free as possible. He and his waitress were friendly and professional and the canapés he served were absolutely delicious and so beautifully presented. Ed deserves all the business he can get, for a truly five star service he provides. We will use him for all our catering going forward. Highly, highly recommended. Thank you for ensuring our event was seamless and stress free, Ed. Much appreciated!

Party Showcase — True Taste of Spain Makes 30th Birthday Sizzle

What we loved about this event

For an unforgettable celebration, bring a touch of Spanish sunshine to your garden party! Chef Javi created an amazing experience for a daughter's 30th birthday, setting up his equipment right on the patio to cater for 23 guests. He's quite a showman, producing authentic paella, tapas, and sangria that were all absolutely devoured. The result was a delicious, vibrant event where "A great time was had by all." Booking Javi is the perfect way to transform any private party into a spectacular, flavour-filled fiesta!

What client said

“

Javi prepared sangria, paella and tapas for 23 people. He came to our house and set up his cooking equipment on our patio. He’s quite a show man and produced amazing Spanish authentic food. Everyone enjoyed my daughter’s 30th birthday with a touch of Spanish sunshine. A great time was had by all. Thanks Javi! Cathy & Chris
