  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From start to finish it was a pleasure to deal with Chefin. They are completely flexible to ensure the night is run to your expectations and accommodated to our (many) dietary requirements. Anton our chef and Ruth our waiter, were a delight and the food was outstanding! I would highly recommend for someone looking to entertain with a difference.
