Booked for Christmas party

Ed came to us for an early Christmas party. He was great in the lead up, managing multiple dietary requirements (pregnancy & gluten intolerance) and answering all of our questions. The menu was incredible, all the food was beautifully prepared, tasty and the portions were very generous. Following the kitchen was left beautifully clean. Would highly recommend Ed :)

Thank you so much to Artan for the lovely and delicious dining experience. I reached out less than two weeks before the event about getting a 4 course meal in our building’s private dining room. The facilities require documentation for liability insurance, risk assessment, etc, and Artan was able to get these to me within 1-2 days. He was also able to accommodate our dietary restrictions (I’m pescatarian and wanted everyone else to have duck) and let me just say — I usually like to share but that tasty sea bass was all mine :D. Artan was super friendly and professional. We only had about 1.5-2 hours reserved and he was able to prepare all 4 courses for us. I will definitely consider reaching out again if we have events in the future, and plan to share this great experience with all of my neighbors as well!

An absolutely amazing Christmas Day for me and my family. We cant thank Tatjana and her team enough. Everything was just perfect, Tatjana is just so warm and friendly, you are immediately put at ease. The food was delicious and surpassed our expectations, the little extras were just a delight. Everything was left spotless. A truly wonderful experience!!

Booked for Christmas party

This was a totally new experience of a chef coming to the house to cook for us so I didn’t know what to expect. Edward was very helpful and accommodating each time we spoke before Christmas Day. On the day he was very punctual, he was very friendly and chatty. He familiarised himself with our kitchen and got straight to work. The food was served on time, it was delicious and everyone loved it. Edward cleaned up and put the dishwasher on and left the kitchen how he found it. Would definitely use him again and definitely recommend him.

Booked for Christmas party

Amazing experience, top quality food, time between courses was just right and to top it off the kitchen was left spotless and dishwashers loaded. Would recommend for a corporate or home dinner party, it takes all the stress away and leaves you to enjoy the evening.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
