How planning works

  1. Send an enquiry with your date, venue or location, guest count and the cuisines you would like.
  2. Choose a Signature Experience — this sets how many canapés and main dishes you select.
  3. Select your dishes from our menus, or ask us to suggest a balanced menu for your guests.
  4. Book a tasting to confirm flavours and presentation before your event.
