This was my first time using a private chef and have to say I was not disappointed. Fran was fab. Her food was enjoyed by all my guests. Would highly recommend.

It was fine dining at home.

- Sally Alfred

Fran was very accommodating of the dietary needs of the group. Fran was clear and responsive over message. She was also just a friendly and respectful person to have in the home. Would highly recommend and will be using Fran again.

The food was delicious!

She truly made the hen weekend. Her Vegan menu was delicious and she was a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend Fran!

Fran's food was sensational!

We had some vegan-sceptics around the table and they were all blown away. She was so easy to communicate with prior to the event and left our kitchen even cleaner than when she found it! Faultless! Kennet Tanner.

Utterly stunning and totally delicious.
