My team and I specialise in cooking for one-off events that need private dining services. This means that I have cooked for a wide variety of events. Clients have hired our services for family gatherings and birthday dos. We’ve also provided food for celebrations like small weddings and engagement parties, as well as corporate events like networking dinners. Each event is unique, and so is the client’s requirements, which keeps us on our toes. We can offer menus with multiple dishes or just one course, sit down dinners or canapé options. Whatever the client, we can do it.
I’m enthusiastic about sourcing our ingredients from organic and local suppliers as much as possible. You can really taste the quality difference in the end result. The only exception to this will be if a client requests more unusual ingredients. For example, if an ingredient needs sourcing from abroad, such as a particular type of wine, cheese or even spice. In which case, wherever possible we go to organic suppliers who are passionate about the quality of their product.
Our food tells a story, often in ways that are hard to explain. For every event, we want to make the food as personalised and unique as possible. So we work closely with each client to find out about the event, the guests, their requirements and if they have any personal preferences. It might be that they want a certain type of cuisine or a particular dish, or to incorporate a certain theme into the menu. Sometimes our clients want to reflect personal details in the menu, such as a location where a couple met or the host’s favourite film. This makes every event different. We create a new menu for each, taking inspiration from the client, previous events and our own experience.

Afternoon Tea for a Work Team Lunch. I found "Always Truffle" through Bark online. When the Team knew it was Afternoon Tea in the Boardroom, I had the highest attendance, so a lot was expected from Lydia from Always Truffle. We did not need to be worried, as Lydia arrived with all the freshly baked & made delights that were able to feed a hungry team & more. Everything was laid out beautifully & the team enjoyed & tasted everything, from homemade scones to Earl Grey Panacottas. All plates, serviettes, etc were provided & Lydia took care of the clearing away. Lydia is a Gem in a sea of caterers, finding a one-woman band who does a lot more than afternoon teas.. Try Always Truffle & Lydia & you will not be disappointed. Lydia also has an infectious personality, which makes for an enjoyable experience.

Couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Ali & his team. Communication from day 1 was perfect and nothing was too much hassle. Everything ran so smoothly on the day and all 17 of us were so happy with the food. Thank you so much!

John catered for our party of 13 at extremely short notice when our first booking fell through. He was fantastic.... he kept to the original menu choices which made our lives so much easier, was friendly, organised and an absolute pleasure to meet. He had a lady with him, sorry don't know her name who served us, cleated the table and got fully involved taking photos etc. They cleaned up the kitchen including the oven, meaning we literally had nothing to do. It really was like being in a 5* restaurant without other annoying customers. I would highly recommend Chef John for your catering needs. Thankuou for making our evening so special.
