I want your experience to memorable for all the right reasons, so if there is a specific cuisine / dish you would like, please contact me and I will be happy to discuss your specific requirements.

  • Travelling is one of the best opportunities to introduce chidlren to new foods and flavours. From comprehensive experience over the years, I’ve found that children are very curious when there is a Chef cooking and as a result are happy to experiment and eat what the adults are eating. If the children really won’t eat the same as the adults, please let me know in advance and together we can come up with a suitable solution. Children are classed between 5 - 11 years. I recommend that any children under 5 years old, you cater for yourselves to avoid any problems.

  • If you require a very specific type of specialist diet for a guest / guests who have a severe intolerance or allergies, eg. Coeliac, Gluten, Nuts please contact me first so I can offer the best advice and solution to accommodate your guests.
