Book a Contortionists in Hong Kong for an unforgetable event

Chef Nanda made our Christmas lunch absolutely outstanding. The food was exceptional, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. The service was warm, seamless, and incredibly professional. My guests were blown away. A perfect festive experience at home.

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!

We were thrilled with our chef prepared team lunch. Food arrived in good time, all of the teams dietary requirements were catered for and the food was delicious. We are all looking forward to next week's lunch. Thank you Chef Greg and Hometainment.

It was great! I'm looking forward to trying out the suggestions from Fleur. And also the pairings with cheeses was so good! I'm glad I attended!

We had a great event thanks to Charles. He really made it a special occasion. He was efficient, polite, excellent at his job. The food was amazing - so beautiful and professional. Presentation was gorgeous. Exactly what we asked for. A lovely occasion made by Charles. He even made fishfingers and a bacon sandwich for the kids! Nothing was too much trouble. The wine that was recommended was unusual and absolutely gorgeous.

Sensational food Fergus catered canapés and bowl food for 30 guests at home. The food was sensational - our guests can’t stop commenting on the quality of the cooking. His rendang and baked Alaska were my personal favourites. Fergus was both easy to communicate with and accommodating. His team were really lovely and took care of everything. Thank you Fergus!

Excellent! Andrea was a pleasure to deal with, quick to respond to questions, arrived nice & early to set up & the drinks were fab ! Thank you !

It was a real joy to have Sarah cooking for our dinner. She was a pleasure to work with coming up with a menu. She made a great suggestion and then took my comments on board very willingly as we came to a menu that I was happy with. One of my guests had specific dietary requirements and Sarah took great care to cater for her separately which allowed me not to worry about it. All our guests commented on the quality of the food and the kitchen was left spotless at the end of the evening. Sarah was also charming with our children and very tolerant of our naughty dog!

Had a really lovely time, very chilled and enjoyable. The instructions were clear and given step by step and we were able to adapt the pattern to our own preferences

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!
