Just to say an incredible thank you to Crystal-Lee and Derrick. They went above and beyond for me yesterday. We were all so happy!
We were very fortunate to have Mimi cater our wedding. From the get-go Mimi was super engaged, flexible and approachable. When it came to the actual weekend Mimi was a force of good-natured efficiency. She kept us aware of any issues that need our input but without adding to the inevitable last-minute wedding stress. She was even up at 4 AM checking on the slow cooking lamb! On the day it was all better than we could have hoped for. Everything was utterly delicious, but also and importantly for us not the standard wedding fare (apart from honey mustard sausages obvs). The Asian pork belly was a particular favourite canape of mine as was the tuna tartare. The lamb for the main was honestly the best I have had, and I know several typically non lamb-eating friends had to do some soul searching afterwards. I would recommend Mimi to anyone for whom food is a priority. She provides something a bit different (and in my experience better) that most catering companies, helping to create an atmosphere that will feel uniquely yours
Our chef Evy was brilliant from start to finish. Super professional and flexible...she was happy to time things when it suited us. The food was sensational....we had limited options due to various food allergies and dietary needs, but Evy came up with a magnificent menu that suited out needs. It was a fabulous meal...and best of all no washing up! I would highly recommend Evy for any home chef needs.
This was my second time using Hometainment. We had previously used a chef but this time a bar tender for a party. Wonderful! The perfect balance of professional and personable with a striking set of skills! Would highly recommend

I can thank Antoine and especially Chef Lara for making the Halloween event we held so amazing. Lara got 100% what i wanted and understood exactly the look and feel of the meal we wanted. Unlike other chefs who wanted to dissuade me from my ideas, Lara took them on with enthusiasm and energy. Without her amazing food and excellent team, the night would not have been as much of a success. I will 100% use Hometainment and Chef Lara again. It was a pleasure to work with them and took a huge amount of stress out of the whole event knowing that they were there looking after things. Thank you Antoine and Lara.
Such a beautiful and meditative practice. The simplicity taught me so much about my inner world. I had no idea that so much could be expressed through simple drawings. It was amazing with Ekta
It was last lovely work shop and had an amazing experience. Teacher was very kind, supportive with positive energy. Highly recommended!
I am very happy with the experience. The chef and mixologist I booked for my birthday party were excellent. The canapés were delicious, and my guests loved the cocktails. The mixologist was very attentive, ensuring everyone had a drink. It truly added a special touch to the day. Highly recommended.
