Floristry Masterclasses in London. Home or Office Fun

Sasha brought the perfect vibe to my 40th birthday party. A super cool DJ playing great tracks all night, i enjoyed every minute

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!

Fabulous food and wonderful service! We absolutely loved having Charles and his colleague Alistair cater for us - they were both completely professional and also really helpful and friendly. I was worried it would be odd having someone else in the kitchen while we were in and out but they put us completely at ease. And the food was AMAZING. Would definitely recommend.

We had the best evening when Jacob came to cook for us! Food was epic and it felt like a very special event. Highly recommend - in particular the French toast for dessert was very tasty and memorable!

Marco came to our house and put on the most incredible spread of sushi. Absolutely top top drawer stuff, would highly recommend to anyone after a delicious and very professional catering experience!

The best private chef service!! Had booked for NYE and the food and service was just amazing! Recommend them so much!!

Fergus consistently put out some of the best food that we have ever eaten. He surprised us each night with a different cuisine. Honestly, is there anything this man cannot do? Our last night, Fergus put together a special tasting menu that we will remember for a lifetime. Aside from the Michelin level food, he is just an all around great person. He personality will fit right in with your group. Look no further, Fergus is your guy.

What a fabulous time we had! Jessie was professional, engaging and passionate, and delivered a fantastic 4 course meal for myself and 5 friends. The food prepared was simply exquisite and her genuine and naturally hospitable personality kept the evening easy but fun and very enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend this experience more or the feeling that the delicious food (and the cbd 😉) and Jessie gave us! Well done Jessie and thank you!!

We had a wonderful session with Ekta, would highly recommend this deeply relaxing and informative session. The perfect activity with friends.

Adam did a great job for us.....he was very easy to communicate with prior to the dinner, punctual on the evening and then produced a delicious dinner which everyone raved about....and then left the kitchen looking spick and span....perfect!
