SOMERSET Sept 2018, Funeral party 120

WOW as normal your crew and you did the most amazing job last Thursday in that lovely sunshine. I always feel it is a bit bizarre the way we have a party after a funeral but honestly from my point of view it couldn’t have gone better as everyone LOVED your bowl food and little puddings so thank you.

DORSET Oct 2018, Wedding for 180

You and your team were quite simply wonderful. The food as always was so delicious and beautifully presented by your excellent staff. They were so attentive to everyone and always with a charming smile. – while we were going through the necessary ritual of the formal photos they thoughtfully brought over plates with a selection of all the different delicious canapés to keep us going. Without exception every thank you letter has commented on the wonderful food and lovely helpful staff. I can not thank you enough for the huge contribution you and all your team made to the success of such a happy wedding. For me personally, knowing all the way through the weeks of organisation -which at times can feel rather stressful – that I had you alongside taking care of all the catering was a huge support. I just knew that it was one area I didn’t need to worry about and that it would be wonderful and completely delicious.

Christmas party for 250 DORSET Dec 2018

We all thought it was the best Christmas party ever, and that is of course almost entirely down to you! Thank you (all) VERY much – you were, as always, brilliant. And unbelievably every last bit of leftover fajita chicken/beef has now been eaten and enjoyed very much. Sausages too were all gone by lunchtime the next day! Brilliant.

Words are hard to find to compliment you and your team on everything you did for us over the weekend. You made it a most wonderful and memorable occasion for us all.

Without a kitchen for much of the reception and despite the wind and rain, you managed to produce the most delicious food imaginable. I cannot tell you how much we ALL appreciated your efforts. Sunday must have seemed a walk in the park by comparison. The beef was quite superb. As someone remarked, there was never a moment when either their glasses weren’t being topped up or they were being offered something to eat.

So many apologies. Your team did you proud and were all a total delight and the food was stunning as always
Please pass on our regards and huge thanks to everyone.

Dear Victoria

Now that I have returned home, I feel compelled to write this as the lunch was such a huge success, almost entirely, due to you & your team.
I have to say that on arriving at Brewham, on the Friday morning, I was taken aback by the state of The Stables. My immediate reaction was that there was no way we could hold a lunch there.
I was on the point of ringing you up to ask if we could possible change the venue then thought better of it. Your husband was totally relaxed when he arrived to check everything & I calmed down – just a little.

That you were able to produce sensational food in such conditions, in my view, was quite remarkable. Had I been in your position I would have ‘blown my top’.
The nibbles before lunch caused a mighty stir – everyone thought they were outstanding including me. The Waiting Staff were brilliant in the manner in which they got on with serving. What impressed me most was their unobtrusivness as they went about their business.

Thank you. so much, for all that you did to make the occasion a most memorable one.

Yours

Dear Victoria

THANKYOU so much for the EXQUISITE meal you cooked for us on Saturday- it was PERFECTin every respect and ALL our guests were blown away with the kindness and professionalism of your staff (especially Tracey!!) Everyone said it was the best meal they had had at any event and how on earth you had been able to do it in what is basically a field kitchen. The strange thing was that most guests were in awe that the plates themselves were hot(apparently they are usually cold!) The only thing I was upset about was that I didn’t come in to say thank you to you all personally which I was REALLY sorry about,but as soon as I could get in there in your usual efficient way you had tidied up and gone!! Oh and the canapés were fantastic! Will await your final bill with the extras on. Finally, thank you for all the care you showed-the whole thing was beyond my expectations, thank you. DianaX

Dear Victoria

I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all your hard work. We have had SO many compliments about the food and especially how delicious the sticky toffee pudding was which so many people have raved about. One person I know ate three of them!!

(Reply)

Your staff were quietly professional, were well presented. How you got the chicken at the wedding to be so perfectly cooked, tender and tasty, I don’t know.
The result was faultless.

(Reply)

Hoards of thank you letters have been flowing my way. I really ought to have redirected them to you as without exception, they praise the food and congratulate you all on having produced such a magnificent feast.

(Reply)

Indeed it was a veritable culinary ‘ tour de force’ ! Well done and please pass on our thanks to your lovely staff on my behalf.

(Reply)

Needless to say your team were great. Everything went very smoothly, the food was amazing, the service was awesome, all of it was just right. I don’t know whether you do Yelp! reviews here but I’d be happy to write one if it helps.

(Reply)

The food was wonderful! It was exactly as I had hoped, light but delicious and beautifully presented and served. Thank you so much. Service was excellent and Charlotte the chef was brilliant – very calm and friendly but clearly really proficient. Unfortunately she had gone before I could thank her at the end of the evening. The waiting staff, a lovely couple who prepared the oak room beautifully for our return after supper.

Wow! Kim and the team far exceeded anything we had hoped for or expected for P’s 50th Birthday on Saturday. We, and our close friends, were completely overwhelmed. Our daughters/son have requested nothing but Kim for all events from now on……..all was left spick and span, and everyone departed raving about Victoria’s catering! We foresee the odd wedding in due course as well…..

(Reply)

I wanted to write also to thank you so much for the quite wonderful dinner you cooked for us all on Saturday night. I had so many compliments on your delicious food from everyone. The canapes as always were superb especially with their heart sticks and the venison just melted in my mouth.

(Reply)

I wanted to pass on our thanks for Saturday night at Chaffeymoor Grange.
The food was absolutely delicious (particularly the scallops) and our guests could not speak highly enough of the evening.
Kim and her team were fantastic all evening, we hardly knew they were there and everything was done with seamless perfection, please do pass on our thanks again.

(Reply)

I’ve finally recovered enough to remember to thank you for the fabulous food you served on the 30th.
It was delicious and the service was flawless & helped make it a most unforgettable night.

(Reply)

I just don’t quite know how to thank you enough for the spectacularly delicious feasts that you and your team provided. EVERYBODY just adored the dinner, and the nibbles before were wonderful and the breakfast outstanding. Thank you; Thank you.
