Booked for Birthday party

The whole thing was perfect- really lovely chef and waiter Adam and R - polite, discreet and friendly. Food was great, so so tidy! Left the kitchen cleaner than it started. I can’t recommend them highly enough, just takes the stress out completely of cooking for a large group you want to treat in your own home.

Our meal was amazing , canapes delicious, steak so tender cooked to perfection followed by wonderful deserts . Ed responded very quickly to any questions, preparing a different meal for our 3 year old granddaughter. Ed was very friendly and a fabulous chef . Would thoroughly recommend 😀

Booked for Birthday party

Fantastic from start to finish. Food was exceptional - just like going to a Michelin restaurant in the comfort of your home. The pork belly course was everyone’s favourite and the vegan tasting menu was also faultless. Every detail was taken off and Edward was very responsive through out. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again for our next event.

I can highly recommend James Howe. The food was delicious, presented beautifully. James and his sous chef were extremely professional and my kitchen was left lovely and clean. I would definitely have them again at any future events as would all my guests that thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Thankyou James & Tonto!

Booked for Birthday party

The whole evening celebrating our friends special birthday was absolutely made that more incredible by having your dining and chef experience. The whole evening was fluid without any issues, each course, plated looked like a work of art and was absolutely delicious. Adam was a delight to have in our kitchen, no fuss, no mess a pleasure. I would recommend Dineindulge to everyone (infact I have) and I would use you again in a heartbeat. Thank you
