“Charis

My family and I would like to thank you, and your colleague, for the arrangements at the memorial tea for my late husband yesterday.

This was the fifth time we have used Chef de la Maison over the last five years and we have been delighted every time. The cakes were delicious and our guests enjoyed the sausage rolls and fruit kebabs. The serving of the various drinks was slick and enabled everyone to have exactly what they wanted.

We have no hesitation recommending your company to our friends and will certainly be back again in the future.

Best wishes”

“I eventually ordered an afternoon tea cake box for myself and my family. Something I’d been meaning to do for ages. I’d previously ordered a different box as a gift for someone and heard it was amazing so, I needed to try it for myself.
Charis is amazing and nothing is too much trouble. Very efficient and great delivery. My boys couldn’t wait to get stuck in. We are now feeling very full however, we have loads left over which is a bonus. The cakes and scones are amazing. My boys loved that the fact that it’s like a pick and mix, getting to sample the different cakes.
I will definitely order again.
I love to support a local business and this one is well deserved of my custom x

“Hi Alison,

I just wanted to pass on my heartfelt thanks for the service provided yesterday, and will get later today. Andrea is lovely.

The food provided is first class, the visitors I have in at the moment are Italian, and they were all very complimentary on what has been provided for them.

Exactly the reason I wanted to use you guys, from history I knew I couldn’t go wrong!

Thanks again, and have a lovely weekend!

Thanks and Regards,

We now have great memories of the whole event and will most certainly recommend your services to others.

Again many thanks.”

“Where do I start...from the first day we met Alison we knew we were in safe hands. She was so organised and took all the pressure from us. On the day of the wedding everything ran like clock work. The food was amazing I have had so many comments from my guests they are still talking about the food now 4 days later. The evening buffet was fantastic there was so much choice and such good quality food. I would recommend Chef De La Masion for any event they take all the worry and stress away from you...and the service they provide is top notch....extremely professional...thank you so much Alison and Team for catering at our wedding :)”

“A massive thank you to Alison, Andrea and team for today. I didn’t get to sample the food as I was on drink pouring/hostessing duty but it looked absolutely fantastic and the feedback was great from all.

Thank you.
Best wishes”

“Hello Alison

I just wanted to say a big thank you for supplying the Buffet to Thorney ex serviceman’s club on Tuesday, it was delicious and went down a treat with everybody. Hopefully you may get some enquiries as lots of people were very impressed and asked who had provided it.
Thanks again

“Our first buffet from yourselves was yesterday, the meeting is for 30 sheltered tenants who coming to chat all things sheltered housing. They were really impressive with the menu especially the little cakes. The quality of the savouries were nice and so were the many options for the sandwiches”

“Hello, I attended an 80th birthday celebration today (Mr Ray Abblitt). Just wanted to say that your ladies were a credit to your company. They were friendly, helpful and worked so hard. The service provided by them was seamless, the food was excellent and yes, it tasted like real food, not made from a packet or processed.You really should praise the four ladies who worked non stop, they presented the whole meal perfectly, moving from one course to the next. I would happily suggest your company for anyone looking for caterers in the future.”

“I would like to say a big thank you for the catering you provided at our recent concert at the Cresset in Peterborough. As you was aware this was a high-profile event for us and with a venue change 24 hours before the performance you and the team came to the rescue with such late notice. The food was delivered at the times discussed, well labelled and presented. We received many compliments from our VIP members as well as the staff working the event who wanted to sample what was left! As well as the food being amazing, the ladies that worked the event did a great job, so polite and engaging which really helped on the night as the VIP members really enjoyed themselves. Well done to Charis and your amazing team, we will be in touch to book again for future our events”

“Didn’t want to let our barbecue on the 10th pass without saying a huge thank you to yourself, Andrea and her son Jack. The whole evening went really well, in particular, the barbecue. The food was great and the service superb. Makes us wonder why we ever did it all ourselves in the past! We will certainly be in touch again next year!”

Everyone was extremely impressed with the variety as well as a taste of the scrumptious BBQ selection. Thank you also for providing the cutlery/plates and for placing what was left in our bowls and into the fridge. You are most welcome to come again!!! I know that Lee has booked you again for her birthday bash next year, so if I don’t see you before, I’ll see you again then for more delectable delights. I’d also like to add that Alison has been an excellent point of contact from start to finish and always professional in her outlook - making helpful, prompt and responsive suggestions along the way to ensure a tailor-made service. I have nothing but praise after our first experience of Chef de la Maison. I will recommend you to everyone. Many thanks again and kind regards”

You don’t get to be in business as long as they have without do it right! ”

“Chef de la Maison provided the food for our wedding on 17th March. Their service was nothing less than superb, from the initial meeting, we knew that Alison, the General Manager, ‘got us’ - totally flexible and understanding our requirements from the outset. The sampling session was so good, we took along some of the pickiest foodies we know and they were very impressed, so we knew we were in good hands. Doing exactly what we asked of them, they provided delicious food, with no danger of running out during the evening, which had been one of our fears having seen other caterers’ efforts at previous weddings we’ve attended. We have received many compliments from the guests about the quality of the food and the impeccable execution, clearly paying great attention to detail. Alison and her team even divided our cake and served it to the tables. Thank you CdlM for playing a great part in making our Wedding amazing.

Thanks Alison, we’ll have no hesitation in coming to see you again if we need to cater for another event in the future.”

“Hi Charis, Just a quick note to say a HUGE THANK YOU for the excellent quality of Christmas buffet lunch that we received today. The comments from our team were amazing.

Merry Christmas to all the team. Best regards”

I would highly recommend them for your event.”

There was a very wide choice for everyone including the ladies who had special requirements. Our guests were very impressed and several asked for the name of the company.

Thank you for everything; we are extremely grateful and I would recommend you, your team and the company to anyone”

“I would like to say a very big thank you for the catering you provided for my recent two-day conference in Peterborough. This was a high-profile event for us. As usual, the food was delivered promptly, well labelled and presented, and received many compliments from our European delegates.
Can I also add my thanks to your lovely delivery staff, for whom nothing was too much trouble? I know Nigel was one; I’m sorry I don’t know the name of the lady. Because of the tight schedule, I had to have refreshments and lunch ready to time and it was immensely helpful of your staff to collect the dirties regularly and lift the heavy flasks to where I needed them.”

“Paul and I just wanted to thank you for such a wonderful job you and your team made on our wedding day - nothing was too much trouble for you to ensure everything went swimmingly and ALL our guests couldn’t praise you highly enough - even down to the “dodgy” dancing from some of your girls at the end of the evening!!!!

GreenStones thoroughly recommend Chef de la Maison to clients.”

“When we run training events we use Chef De La Maison every time! Catering for events like this is often quite dull with typical below average finger food. But not with Charis and Chef De La Maison - their food is exciting, delicious, fresh, attractive and there is always something for everyone. Working with the Chef De La Maison team is always hassle free, flexible, punctual and goes down a storm with our clients. I’d have no hesitation recommending Charis and Chef De La Maison. We love them”

I would be more than happy to recommend her and her services to friends, family and other business colleagues without hesitation.”

“Charis at Chef De La Maison is the perfect combination of reliable professionalism, thoughtfulness and great fun. You won’t just love her fantastic food, you’ll love her too!”

“If you’re looking for high quality event catering complete with outstanding customer service, Chef De La Maison is the place to go. We have used Chef De La Maison numerous times over the last 8 years for corporate and private events. The care and attention to detail that goes into their food - regardless of the event and venue - is exceptional. Whether it’s freshly cooked food or pre-packed lunches; Chef De La Maison always deliver 5* food that our team love. With nearly 50 members of staff, ensuring our whole team all have something delicious to tuck into is no easy task, but Charis and the team make it look effortless. Whenever we have requested lunch bags we have always received a wide mix of sandwiches suitable for everyone; including vegetarians. Having used Chef De La Maison for several years now and experiencing both hot and cold food, we can 100%, unreservedly say that we would recommend them to anyone looking for caterers for their next event.”
