I recently arranged catering for my birthday party through Your Private Chef. Everyone had a fantastic night and the quality of the food was incredible - everyone commented how good the food was. We had a variety of entry finger foods, pies, sausage rolls, vegetarian samosas etc. and the Mexican buffet. The brisket is amazing! I had to make several changes in the lead up to the event due to late RSVPs, and Ana was always very helpful and accomodating.

Highly recommend Your Private Chef. Ana was so lovely and responsive, and gave honest, helpful - and accurate - advice as to how much to order. It's so hard to make decisions when you are recently bereaved. Ana made it so much easier. And few caterers could do so well at such short notice, which wake's obviously are. The food was amazing - everyone said so, and wanted to know who had catered. Very grateful. Thank you all.
