It's What We Do That Counts

Why are we so good at what we do? We work with the client, not against them; we offer professional advice, but we will always respect what the client wants, and we will always try to deliver it to the best of our abilities. In terms of describing what experience we have in catering, well it can be summed up by saying that in our thirty years as a company we have served over 22, 000 people in one day at one event, and we have served fine dining for 12 people at another, with everything in between. Oh, and we learned to cook good food along the way! We also started our own market garden farm to supply our clients with the freshest, most seasonal produce. SEE OUR MARKET GARDEN FARM

We know just how untrue the phrase, "well I've seen everything now" actually is; because in catering, going from event to event, we see something new each and every time, even after thirty years of doing it. However, what we have also developed over this amount of time is the professional experience to work with our customer, to identify any teething problems or issues before most of them arise. We have found that by fully understanding health and safety, by going through a check list of eventualities, (on an individual basis for each job specification) this routine always provides a first class catering experience, one that we can be proud of after a hard day's work.

Below is a video of the Medieval Banquet we did for the BBC and David Dimbleby's programe 'How We Built Britain', filmed at Gainsborough Hall. All the food was cooked and prepared by us, in collaboration with the Food Historian, Peter Brears, (who has since written an excellent book, 'Cooking & Dining in Medieval England'). Each dish was meticulously researched, tried, tweaked and perfected in our kitchens before arriving at the great hall: attention to detail is what we do. This is just one example of many we have been involved with, If you would like us to do something similar for you, contact us.

All the food here is historically accurate researched by us, in collaboration with Peter Brears, to provide a fully authentic Medieval feast for the BBC. Contact us for more information on what we can do for you.

We are good at we do because we realise that trust is a very important issue, particularly on important events where reputations and once-in-a-life-time memories are at stake, which is why we are able to offer both sound advice and creative thinking over the phone at the initial planning stage; (having already done most kind of events our new clients find that we are very helpful, particularly if this is their first time in hiring in caterers). Time and again we are told by our new clients that after the initial conversation with us they felt confident that this was one less worry that they now had in planning their event.

Here are just a few snippets from thank you cards we have received on this issue:

"many thanks for everything you did for us ... it was a weight off my mind once I knew we were in good hands ... " with kind regards, Stephanie and Wayne, Monmouth, 2007.

"... it was very well received by our guests ... we were delighted with your food and with your friendliness." Yours sincerely, Barbara and Jack Thomas, Newport, 2009.

"I cannot tell you how impressed we all were, the phone conversation I had with Mia helped enormously and the evening went smoothly, thank you once again ..." Rav and Julie, Pembrokeshire, 2003.
