We had the most wonderful Christmas dinner cooked by Paul for 18 of us! The food was absolutely outstanding with such generous portions all round. The canapés were delicious along with a tasty Christmas dinner with all the trimmings! We are very grateful for Paul making our Christmas so special and stress free. My kitchen was left immaculate too. A big thank you to Paul and She’ll for such an exceptional service, we will certainly be using you again for our next dinner. More...

Paul was not only a great chef but also very personable. We’re still not quite sure how he managed to prepare so many different courses for 11 people but he did so perfectly.
Great presentation and great flavours throughout the evening. Before the meal he offers the opportunity to select from a large menu with great variety of dishes.
We would thoroughly recommend anyone to take the opportunity to engage Paul for a guaranteed evening of fine dining.

I booked Paul for my sisters hen do, we had 12 guests and she loves Italian food and got engaged in Italy so it was perfect! Firstly (and I suppose most importantly), the food was incredible! We had a starter and a main, some veggie and some meat based and everyone was raving about how beautiful the food was. It was high quality, beautifully served and very generous portions. It looked like something you would get in a Michelin star restaurant. Secondly, Paul and his sister are both lovely, super friendly and helpful. They arrived, helped us with our tricky parking situation, and then made the dinner in such a professional manor. They served the food to the table, took our plates when we finished and cleaned up which was amazing! I couldn’t recommend them enough. It was such a great experience, thank you so much! More...

A absolute gentleman. Made us all feel really at ease. We invited Paul to cook for us in an Air B&B, a totally unknown kitchen to him he coped with that so Brilliantly. He came well prepared and delivered an utterly delicious 3 course dinner cooked to perfection for 7 adults with the added bonus of freshly baked bread and dip. He made our evening so special for our daughters 40th Birthday. At the end of the evening Paul left the kitchen absolutely immaculate. Can’t thank him enough. We would highly encourage anyone to hire Cavelli Cuisine. 5 stars is not enough could we perhaps do 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ More...

I was initially impressed as Paul responded to my enquiry almost immediately. Communication remained good throughout our booking and decision making on our final menu choice. Paul offered a choice of 3 meals for each of the 3 courses, which included a Veggie option. On the day Paul arrived promptly and was well prepared for our evening party of 14 guests. The food was of a high quality and nicely presented. All of the guests were very impressed with their meal choice. The steaks were all cooked to everyone's individual choices and were absolutely perfect. I would recommend Paul for you dinner party and I would book him again should we have a similar event. More...

We hosted a dinner evening after paying for a charity auction prize to have Paul cook.
From start to finish it was amazing.
Canapés for guests arrivals were delicious, and the starters of scotched egg was a winner!
Paul and Michelle were a great team, tidying up and washing everything down after so we literally didn’t have to do anything after our guests left.
Highly recommend Paul and we will certainly be booking again.

Paul provided an amazing 2 course meal with so many options to choose before preordering. There were intolerances and allergies to navigate and he altered the menu and choices to whatever we needed and wanted.
He was professional and very tolerant with us in and out getting more bubbles from the ‘fridge!
The food was so fresh, excellent quality and a real taste of Fine Dining.
We were 12 hens getting ready for my daughter’s wedding and the meal was an absolute treat within a fantastic weekend.
Would definitely contact Paul again and we are looking for excuses to have another dinner party !
Thanks Paul you made 12 hens very happy !

Paul catered for my wife’s 70th birthday celebration meal for 12 adults.
He regularly communicated with us when planning the menu, including dietary requirements and allergies.
The choice of starters, mains and desserts was incredible.
We paid a small deposit and the balance the day before the event.
Paul arrived on time, he was very polite, and professional. He brought his own grill and hot plates, served the sit down meal at the agreed time.
I had forgotten to cook the pizza and stuffed pasta for the kids and Paul stepped in and took on that additional task without a fuss.
After the three courses Paul cleared and cleaned up all the dishes.
His prices are very reasonable and we gave him a tip which he fully deserved. All of our guest commented how delicious all his dishes were.
I would happily recommend him very highly.

Caroline Baker
We booked Paul to cater for my birthday party and from the first contact with him, I cannot fault anything. Every email was met with a follow up phone call and he came up with a choice of stunning buffet menus which he was happy to change around to suit our taste. We had two guests with dietary requirements and he faultlessly adjusted these dishes to suit and on the night clearly identified all dishes to my guests. The food was amazing and everyone was blown away with flavours of all the dishes and deserts which were out of this world. Paul was a lovely guy, prompt and professional, friendly and unassuming and a pleasure to have cooking for us. He cleared everything away and left the kitchen immaculate. I cannot recommend him enough and hope to use his services again in the future. More...
