Booked for Christmas party

Marius cooked an exceptional Christmas dinner for us. From the moment we booked he gave us fantastic service and was extremely responsive and helpful with the planning. On the day, he arrived and took care of everything down to the smallest detail. He was professional and friendly and obviously cares very passionately about giving guests the best possible experience. The food was excellent- the best Christmas dinner we have ever had. He left the kitchen spotless - even cleaner than when he arrived! He even left us a delicious chocolate cake as a surprise which everyone loved. I can’t recommend him enough - what a fabulous chef - we will certainly book again!

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 :)

Fantastic service, great food, a really good selection to choose from, arrived on time and worked around our rather hilarious murder mystery. I would highly recommend.

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.
