Booked for Celebration

Superb service - Antony and Tiffany were so friendly and the food was delicious. They set the table, cooked a wonderful meal and cleared everything away - if we weren’t all really full up we would have thought they’d never been! Thoroughly recommend

Tony Aindow25 Sep 2022

Booked for Anniversary

Chef Eugen arrived early and was friendly and we'll organised for the dinner. He served us with fabulous food and introduced every course with perfect timing. The food quality was the best and beautifully prepared. He prepared everybody's steaks to their individual preference, and nobody was disappointed.. He was efficient and polite throughout, and left everything spotless before he went. It couldn't have been better!

Booked for Birthday party

Ed from Fed by Ed was prompt, polite, professional and very friendly. Nothing was too much hassle and he even poured us drinks. Our kitchen was left spotless and there was no washing up to do. Really enjoyable experience

Chris Cole2 Jan 2020

Booked for Birthday party

Mapula was a wonderful contributor to a family 70th birthday party! She accommodated some tricky dietary requirements and cooked the most delicious and abundant meal for us all! Working with her was super easy (for a small extra charge she brought flowers and set the table beautifully) and everyone commented on how valuable she was to our evening. I'd certainly book her again for similar events!

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.
