“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!”

“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 ”

“We had a private event in our student accommodation complex. We do regular events for the students but we have never had such an incredible turn out. The smells and excitement of Gourmet Street Kitchen in our courtyard pulled everyone from their rooms to taste the food, it created a real buzz around the place. I was lucky (greedy) enough to have a try of all the different flavours and they were all delicious. The stand out for me has to be the deep fried Jalapeño Mac Balls! They are sensational and the students loved them. However I also loved the pancetta and mushroom, and the chorizo, I loved them all! Thanks Adam. We already have a huge demand for the next visit and hoping to book Gourmet Street Kitchen again late this year. ”

“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”
