I cook restaurant-standard food in your kitchen, so you can be a guest at your own table. I take charge of the meal from start to finish. Sourcing the ingredients, cooking from scratch and leaving the kitchen spotless. My menus are built around what you want, spanning Asian-fusion, Mediterranean, Italian and classic British dishes, plus hot and cold buffets for larger gatherings. I happily work around vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and other dietary needs, and can add signature cocktails to the evening too.

Make it yours
Private Lunch or Dinner Party
From £100 per guest
We go through the menu, then I cook and serve it in your stay’s kitchen. I work through the afternoon so the food arrives fresh, whether that is a plated multi-course dinner or a mix of starters served to the table and mains laid out buffet-style. Before I leave, I ensure your kitchen is spotless.
Grazing Tables & Cold Buffets
From £82 per guest
I build grazing tables and cold buffets designed to look striking and taste even better, with plenty of variety and canapés to suit the occasion. Good for celebrations and relaxed gatherings where guests help themselves.
Afternoon Tea
From £75 per guest
An elegant afternoon tea for a special occasion, from baby showers to birthdays, with a spread of savouries and sweet bakes made fresh for your group.

I’m a private chef and cater for lunches, dinner parties, celebrations and corporate events across the Cotswolds, Buckinghamshire, Oxford and London, and the surrounding areas. I love creating special occasions in your own home or holiday stay, with food made from scratch and a warm, easy atmosphere. I often cook alongside my team, and we take care of everything so you can relax and enjoy the day.
What I'm known for
Asian-fusion and Mediterranean menus, and our beautiful grazing table spreads.
My background and experience
I’ve cooked private dinners, grazing tables, buffets, afternoon teas and corporate events for groups from two to more than 80, in homes, holiday stays and manor houses across the Cotswolds, Buckinghamshire, Oxford, London and beyond. Guests often tell me the food matches high-end restaurants, and I regularly cater for mixed dietary needs including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free. I also make my own signature cocktails when a party calls for them.
