Testimonial:

Many thanks for providing the hot, cold and sweet canapés for our 40^th anniversary party at such short notice.  We were impressed with the quality and professionalism of your service.  It was great to be able to enjoy my party without having to worry about the food.  Tim the chef and Ruth our waitress were fabulous.

We’ve finished putting together some new menus for the coming year, 2012. The Wedding menus are presented as two options along with a fine dining/Dinner party menu for smaller numbers giving three overall options for Wedding catering.

Our Canapé menu has been condensed, whilst still offering some of the more popular canapés from 2011 along with a few new ideas prepared in house.  The bowlfood menus which proved ever popular have been revamped to offer some interesting dishes for the New Year.

We’re still finalising our Barbecue menus for both Corporate and Private parties, as soon as they are ready we’ll have them available.

Email the chef@callthecaterers.co.uk  if you want a copy of the menu or wish to discuss your event.

Thanks for all your hard work, professionalism and efforts on Friday and Saturday, both days were a great success.

The food on both days was also delicious.

Please also pass our thanks onto your waiters who were fantastic.

Hi Dave, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I haven’t been back to my desk for long since Thursday!

Thanks for providing the catering for our party last week. Despite the limited facilities at the venue the food was great and we’ve had great feedback from our guests. The service was very efficient with what seemed to be an endless supply of food!

 Thanks for helping to make it a really good event. I will definitely call you next time we need any sort of catering.

 I’m so sorry that we imprisoned your waiting staff in a lift… please don’t include that in the testimonial!

Thank, Lisa

 

Hi Dave,

 Thanks for everything last Friday, and making the whole evening stress-free and memorable.

 Everybody was very impressed with the “vegan” meal which Tim had prepared.  We found the whole meal tasty and interesting, and I was delighted that “vegan” food had been accepted by everyone and that they had enjoyed all of it.

 I loved the way that you, Dave, just got on with anything which required doing, without being asked and in a friendly, charming manner, even serving everyone hot drinks after the meal.

 I would recommend “Catered-Events” to anyone for a delicious meal, stress-free evening, cooked and served by two very nice people.

Thanks again for everything, Sheila and Brian English

New wedding menus for the 2011 season are available from the chef@callthecaterers.co.uk ; many of last year’s dishes still remain as they proved ever popular and why change a good thing. The wedding menus have been designed into 3 categories to appeal to a wider audience in terms of costs.

The current economic climate is affecting most people and in particular young couples planning their wedding. We have found that enquiries for our services have increased but budgets still vary as people look at cheaper alternatives without compromising the quality of the food. Yes there will always be cheap caterers out there using packet soup or imported chicken full of water but with some clever menu writing  and talented chefs, acceptable menus can still be produced albeit slightly cheaper.

The menus are posted on the site www.callthecaterers.co.uk as with a few other new ideas, New Barbecue, canapé, bowl food and buffet menus have all been revamped to help with ideas for planning your event.

2011  looks like being a busy year so if you need to reserve a date do it ASAP, some dates are still available through 2011 but we can’t guarantee date availability.

Hi Dave,
I know Rob has already emailed you but I just wanted to tell you myself how grateful I am for helping to make our wedding day so special. We both had such a wonderful time and so many guests said the same.
Please feel free to use the following testimonial:
 
From the initial meeting to discuss requirements until the end of the evening on our wedding day, Dave and his team did everything they could to make it special. The food was outstanding and plentiful, the service second to none and so many of our guests commented on this. I did a lot of research before booking this company and I know I could not have made a better choice. For professionalism and value for money, Catered Events cannot be beaten! I cannot recommend Dave highly enough and want to say thanks for playing such a big part in making our day so perfect – can’t wait for another party so we can book you again! Many, many thanks, jackie and rob x
 
Glad you enjoyed the dance – we certainly did!!
 
Thanks again,
Jackie xxx

Thanks Jackie I’m only too glad we helped make your wedding day that extra bit special. It’s pretty typical of what we do, we take the catering at weddings extremely seriously as it’s always someone’s big day. Thanks again for booking us, glad you enjoyed the Barbecue menu and we look forward to serving you again. Happy New Year Dave and team.

Hi Dave

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your guy’s for a very well executed barbeque. Jackie and I thought the food was fantastic and we’ve had really good reviews from our quests. Also thanks for your very kind remarks on the email you sent Jackie, we certainly had a cracking day and fully enjoyed the dance.

Thanks again for making our day a very special.. It’s certainly a day we’ll never forget.

Very Kind regards

Rob & Jackie

Hi Dave

I wanted to drop you a line to say an enormous thankyou for last night. The team and the food were superb. Everyone loved it, here is just one of the comments we’ve received by e-m today:

 The music was great and the FOOD!!!!! It was so delicious we just couldn’t stop talking about it …….or eating it!

 You were a definite hit! The staff were really good, very keen, did everything asked of them. The young man was particularly good (sorry, can’t remember his name).

 Mike and Richard (chefs) were fantastic, calm, competent, solving various non food related party issues such as champagne wires that broke. The clean-up at the end was fast efficient and very good, and they left everything as they found it. Oh, and the bowls – they were great, really party-like, I was expecting porcelain or china so that was a nice surprise. The timing was also excellent, everything ran exactly as we discussed (and believe me, I’ve experienced catering companies who definitely can’t deliver that!).

I hope we haven’t made a faux pas – we only tipped the waiting staff as I assumed that the chefs were part of the management of your company and you don’t tend to tip management, but my husband thinks not, so please can you apologise to them for me if I got it wrong, as they really were excellent.

My only disappointment of the evening was that I hardly managed to eat anything, as I was in my “party anxious mood”, which rarely disappears until about 11pm, when I know that people are drinking, have eaten and are starting to dance. So we will have to use you again so that I can try the chilli salmon cubes that EVERYONE was raving about.

Thank you again, we would have no hesitation in using you for our future parties and events, or recommending you, in fact several people asked for your details last night.

 Please do pass our thanks on to the chefs and waiting staff.

Best wishes, Donna

Hi Donna, thanks for the feedback, sorry i couldn’t make it personally as i was catering at a wedding. As you established, you were in safe hands with Richard, Mike as both are talented Chefs. Glad you enjoyed the Bowl food and canapes we prepared and glad we helped make the party an overall success.
