Booked for Birthday party

Booking process was easy and clear. A couple of days before the event, comms were sent to make sure we were prepped eg leave 2 shelves in the fridge for the chef, chef arrival time, tipping etiquette etc. customer service was quick to respond to any questions. On the day, chef called beforehand to check if we had any questions, they arrived on time with all the ingredients and left leaving the kitchen spotless. During the night the service was top, they used the tools in the kitchen freely so not to disturb us.

Booked for Private party

Christos was booked for a private dinner party for 2 for my son and daughter-in-law - their comments are: " We were given the most fantastic gift! Christos came to our house and prepared a 5 course meal that would make Michelin star restaurants jealous. Every dish was a delight for the eyes and a surprise of flavourful fireworks. On top of the beautiful food, Christos' friendly, fun and professional personality was a real treat. We would recommend Christos and his menus to anyone wanting a memorable culinary experience". Fantastic job Christos; many thanks.

Booked for Birthday party

This was a fantastic experience. Chef Csava arrived on time and dinner was served exactly when expected. The food was fabulous, we will be doing this again and would highly recommend it if you are thinking about doing it. We booked this in a holiday let cottage and Chef Csava was brilliantly prepared and the night went smoothly. Great value for money and food was really good quality.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies
