Andrea was absolutely brilliant! Amazing drinks, very personable and lovely but super professional at the same time! Could not reccomend more!

Listened to my requirements and excelled in the cocktails he made. Would use again for sure. 11 out of 10

I hired Jacob to put together an 8 person menu including canapés. He arrived a couple of hours ahead of the dinner and got to work. He put everything together with the minimum of fuss. Food was fantastic, presentation top-notch. He was a major part of a great night.

Just used Hometainment to book a photographer and bartender for our anniversary party. Service was brilliant, found amazing professionals with less than a weeks notice. Easy to deal with, all on point! I’ll definitely be using hometainment for all future events

It was lovely to have Sarah cook in our kitchen. She is professional and super friendly. We had a special challenge for her with a coeliac, a lactose intolerant as well as a guest with allergies - Sarah was flexible and inventive in exploring ways to make sure everyone had a wonderful meal and welcomed the extra challenge. The food was simply beautiful!

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!

Jacob cooked for us and a group of friends for my husband’s birthday. It was excellent! Not only was the good delicious (and the kitchen left spotless) but Jacob was very friendly too. He was happy to have our 3 young children watch him prepare the food and answered their endless questions. It was a wonderful evening thanks to Jacob!

Really good range of menu, provided a very good experience. Can tell from food well trained chef with good recipe ideas.

It was fantastic having Diana run the Reiki session for the group this week. She made everyone feel comfortable and welcome, and we had many wonderful comments from those who took part. The comms to organise it was really well done and the set up for the session super simple. We were also lucky enough to do the session our office roof garden which made it all the more special.

Charles was great. Punctual, personable, organised and a great chef. We all really loved his food and had a wonderful time celebrating a friend's 50th.
