I did not hear from them, so I cannot give an assessment.

We hired a chef (Mcallisters) for Christmas Day and it was absolutely superb. Paul and Sally Mcallister did everything from food buying, prep, serving, washing up and even mopped the floor!
Paul even baked a ham for us and left cheese for Boxing Day. What a lovely thought!
Paul’s background is mainly glamorous hotels and high end restaurants but he set out on his own earlier in the year and now does private catering for everything from dinner for two through to large scale weddings, parties and anniversaries. I couldn’t recommend them more :-)

Mcallisters served up a perfect private lunch, followed up later by a paella party for 30. We couldn’t have been happier. Highly recommended.

Experienced formal lunch and also a Paella party - both excellent! Highly recommended!

How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
Once I have a feel for what the client likes, what they are looking for, the kind of event, and the personality and desire of the client, I can then go about putting together a bespoke package to meet their needs. I have a expansive knowledge and so can put together anything and everything that they might want. Through my expertise, resources and also my contacts, I can ensure I deliver something special that the client will love!
What do you love most about your job?
I love to experiment with food, new ingredients, and push myself to improve! There is nothing better than discovering a new ingredient, food combination or fresh dish - you can never stop learning.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have worked in the hospitality industry for 20 years, and feel that now is my time to show everything I can offer, with the passion I have!
Why should our clients choose you?
I have built up 20 years of experience and knowledge, while retaining my passion. I am family orientated so I know the requirements and demands that different clients might have, while also understanding both the relaxed, light-hearted side to dining, as well as the professional, highest standard side to the industry also.
