“I booked Big Slice for my birthday and they did not disappoint. All the way through the process from quotation to end service, they team at Big Slice fully looked after me and gave me a professional service. The Pizza's were amazing and I would say better then any "premium" branded pizza. I have recommend Big Slice to all my friends and family and will defo use them again. ”

“Antonio’s paella was absolutely amazing and definitely one of the highlights of the event! Everyone kept talking about how rich and authentic the flavours were, you could really tell it was made with a lot of love and care. Antonio was not only professional but also super friendly and accommodating. He made sure everyone was looked after, including guests with dietary needs like vegetarians and those who are gluten-free, nothing was too much trouble. The presentation was beautiful too and really added to the whole vibe of the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Antonio’s Paella to anyone looking for top-quality food and brilliant service!”

“We asked Andy to cater for a joint birthday bash for 120 guests and I have to say everyone was blown away with the presentation and quality of Andy's food. His passion for locally sourced produce and his ability to let the ingredients do the talking created a refreshing and unusual menu that was a hit with everyone. Highly recommended!”

Wedding success

“We would recommend JiL Fresh Cuisine to anyone! The customer service was excellent and a consultant was able to tailor suit our menu according to our budget and gave many helpful suggestions and tips. They were very punctual and professional not to mention the food was so fresh and delicious! They made our wedding a success and our friends and family are still complementing our wedding food one year on!! Kunle and Victoria Ogunsanya”

Fabulous 60th Birthday BBQ

“Clara's Kitchen were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. I met Claire over a year prior to the event and she expertly suggested choices for a wonderful BBQ with tempting puddings. We even had a late date change, owing to family logistics, but nothing phased Claire and the whole party was rearranged. Claire and her team arrived on time, set up, prepared a banquet fit for a king, or at least my husband, and left again....So professional. Lastly, Claire has an engaging personality, she is so warm amd friendly that it is a pleasure to do business with her. All my guests loved her and the team. Thank you”

great surprise

“not being a great fan of pasta and more especially macaroni cheese I was more than a little underwhelmed that my wife chose a bowl of mac and cheese from this stall. I opted for the prawn and pickled fennel bowl. I have to say I was completely blown away by the taste. fantastic. my wife had a bowl with chorizo which was equally as good. Look out for the Gourmet Street Kitchen. you will not be disappointed!!”

Everyone loved the food, absolutely everyone!

“HI Guys, Sorry for this very late note of thanks, but thank you so much for making the party! Everyone loved the food, absolutely everyone! It was absolutely brilliant and I wanted to say what a great job they did considering there were only 2 of them and they coped well when the mad rush descended on them! Hope to use you guys again sometime in the future….. Many thanks and good luck with everything. All the best Victoria ”
