Italian food Private Chefs London. Hire Chefs at Home

Mack was BRILLIANT and I wouldn't hesitate to book him again. I highly recommend him. He was very responsive and communicative to deal with from the minute we booked. He was punctual and reliable. He played amazing music, which really added to the party atmosphere at our house. He's also a really friendly, lovely guy and all the guests loved him. We will definitely be booking him again.

The perfect evening thanks to the amazing chefs and team at Hometainment👏👏👏👏 Chef Marco’s sushi bar and canapés were simply delicious and the experience seamless!! We loved it!

Sarah’s food was absolutely delicious and presented beautifully! Everyone loved the family style sharing plates which were all very generously portioned. Sarah was super communicative in the run up to the event and kindly printed out menus for me to set on the table. Her husband was also great fun and ensured everything went smoothly on the evening! The kitchen was also left immaculately- thanks SO much!! I would recommend Sarah to anyone :)

Sarah made organising a hen do one of the easiest events to organise. Sarah was responsive and very quickly suggested a menu, responding to what I had asked for perfectly. Sarah’s food was absolutely amazing, we all ate so much despite being very full! Sarah left the kitchen clean and tidy within tidying up for us to do afterwards.

Charlotte (and her assistant) were an excellent team to cater our dinner at home for 6 guests. Really responsive in the pre event communications and super flexible and helpful while designing the menu. Very calm and in control on the night and nothing was too much trouble. Food was exceptional, including a wonderful mango and passion fruit soufflé which was brilliantly done. Couldn’t recommend Charlotte more.

Mack brought a soulful, jazzy vibe to our event that took it to a whole new level. From the moment he started playing, it was like the room came alive with his melodies. His saxophone skills were off the charts, and his energy was infectious.

Jacob did a great job and made us feel important from the first communication, which some other chefs hadn't when we were speaking with them. He was responsive and gave good ideas and suggestions when we spoke, allowing us to make the decisions quickly. He was also flexible when numbers etc changed nearer to the event, Helping find a server for the day meant we had a lunch that felt extra special and everyone loved the food - with generous portions and good quality food. The lobster risotto was an amazing start to the meal and really set the scene for what followed. The kitchen was left clean and tidy and the day was a joy.

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!!

Absolutely amazing service and great food. Would recommend as a corporate event or / and as just fun with family and friends. Looking forward to the next one in the summer.

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!
