Having tried every diet invented and ignored gut-health problems for over a decade, approaching Georgie was a game changer. Georgie's insights and guidance helped my insides significantly as well as my sleep quality and mental health. Georgie gave me the ability and confidence to switch up my diet to food I love, which is actually good for me and super tasty. As a bonus, I am also losing weight through nutrition rather than fad diets. I now have the toolkit to put myself and my health first. Georgie made the entire process enjoyable and pain free - literally!

Fantastic! From the team members @ Hometainment who were able to cater to the requirements of a corporate event we hosted in our gallery. The Chef Anna and her waiting team were great to work with, the food was fantastic! Thank you for helping to curate a wonderful experience! :)

So you want to host a chef-catered dinner party in London. I did, for my 50th birthday, and it came off absolutely brilliantly thanks to Chef Charlotte. Here's some advice: 1. Obviously, rent the AirBNB/event space with the largest dining area. This will likely not be big enough, however, and you probably won't have enough place settings, silverware, wineglasses, etc. We only realized this in a call with Chef Charlotte, who recommended an event hire company from whom we rented an extra table, linens, wine glasses, etc. 2. Tell the AirBNB owner what you're doing before you reserve: I didn't really, and for the week leading up to the event was pretty stressed out that the owner would object or worse, send over the police! 3. Use HOMETAINMENT. Antoine Melon, the founder, is dedicated to making your event a success and will likely reach out to you personally--exactly the touch that will make the difference. Thanks Antoine! 4. You will probably end up working with the first chef who responds to your inquiry--in our case, fortuitously, Chef Charlotte. And you'll probably be fine with any of the HOMETAINMENT Chefs they're all professionals, after all. However, I would recommend that you at least wait to hear from Chef Charlotte, who I would wholeheartedly recommend. 5. Keep things (relatively) simple. While I'm sure she can cook anything, Chef Charlotte recommends a menu that she has likely cooked a hundred times and can probably do in her sleep. She adapted it to accommodate our dietary needs (some vegans, garlic intolerance) and added a personal favorite of mine, a cold spring veggie soup which was amazing. 6. An assistant chef/server is important, and I'd make sure that your chef will have one (Charlotte will). 7. And ultimately, relax and have a great time! Chef Charlotte is a total professional, great to work with, and most of all, cooked us an unforgettable meal: Passed canapés: Roasted aubergine with tomato and black olive tapenade Salmon gravlax, toasted rye, mustard and dill sauce Dorset crab tartlets First course: Spring vegetable soup, gremolata Second course: Ravioli of new season English green and white asparagus Main course: Herb crusted rack of Cotswold lamb, spring vegetables, potato gratin, lamb jus, served with risotto of spring vegetables, basil pesto, pine nut crumb Dessert: Apple tart tatin, home made vanilla ice cream Bon appetit!

It was the first party that I've hosted where I was absolutely stressed-free and relaxed as Chef Jacob took over the kitchen and too care of everything. His food was divine and my guests were raving about it till the next day. Will definitely use his culinary services again!

Where do we even start! Firstly, Gonzalo has been the most amazing help from day one. He has exceeded all expectations we had! Their website and booking process was extremely easy and very straightforward! Their photo booths are like no other… whatever i asked for they did for us! They personalised the images to suit our needs and send us the online photos in less than 24hrs. They set up sooo quickly! The equipment is so elegant and looked amazing at our wedding venue, unlike anything I have ever seen. Our guests were obsessed!! Some of them wouldn’t even leave the booth! The quality of photos and the experience is like no other! My husband and I cannot recommend live shot enough! So many people have asked us for their contact for their events! We will 100% be using them again! Gonzalo, thank you again for everything! You guys where amazing!!

Our bartender, Mattia, was truly outstanding! We had to make a last-minute booking just four hours before our company event due to a change in plans. The support team at HOMETAINMENT, along with Mattia, displayed exceptional speed and professionalism in accommodating our request. Mattia quickly took charge of our bar, offering fantastic cocktail suggestions that perfectly complemented the party's atmosphere. His mixing skills were precise and impeccable, and he even extended his service for an additional 30 minutes to ensure our evening continued smoothly. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Mattia for his contributions. This marked our second successful OFFICETAINMENT event, and it was made memorable by his exceptional service.

Maximilian was brilliant from start to finish. Not only he’s a super talented Magician but he listen to what each and individual client needs and delivers in a fun and professional way. We invited him to perform at our VIP clients dinner and it was a great success! Thank you again Max!

The most magical experience! This was the best meal I have ever eaten! My friends and I always love tasting menus and we visit often - this was next level! The food was immaculately presented and equivalently done perfectly to any Michelin star restaurant! The food was generous - genuinely incredible value for money! Caroline & Guilherme we’re also able to perfectly recommend wine pairing to elevate the experience! Caroline & Guilherme we’re incredibly warm and it felt like having friends cook in our Home! We can’t wait for the next one! Thanks so much!
