He was so nice, we all got in his way dogs children people looking for drinks he was very gracious and the BBQ was delicious I thought the veg was stunning and I will be asking for the recipe I think I will be trying to do more vegetarian on the BBQ, my brother in law loved the burgers and the fish and ribs all went down well Jonathan also said he does an American style BBQ with brisket which I would love to try. He coped in an hectic environment and cleaned up well all in all lovely chap!

Chef was lovely throughout the booking process and designed a gorgeous menu for my dad's 75th birthday. Each of the canapés and 5 courses delivered beautifully presented and absolutely delicious food; the wellington a real highlight. Chef has a very lovely and unassuming way - he studiously goes about creating and you really feel the passion that goes into his craft. He was also generous to share some great stories from his career. Our kitchen was left immaculate. Thank you chef!

Jonathan was brilliant. The food was great, the perfect amount, beautifully presented and delicious. We had a gluten free guest and Jonathan made everything gluten free and delicious. He was friendly, professional and flexible to work around our timing (getting kids to bed).

This was my first time hiring a private chef and won't be the last! Jonathan was engaging from the start, came up with a beautiful sounding menu (which was even more delicious than you can imagine), had great communication and was very accommodating with allergies and changes to our plan which were out of our control. He was friendly, professional and cooked an amazing Greek mezze for our occasion. We would book him again in a heartbeat!
