Fabulous food, couldn't fault anything that was put on the table, it was absolutely delicious. A couple of things that could've improved the experience rather than a criticism: I would've preferred a bowl rather than a plate for the starters of dahl and cauliflower, which was difficult to eat on a plate.
Never going anywhere else for our events and private party activations for our brand. Phenomenal service all round, expert staff, on point from beginning to end.
These guys in action really are 1st Class
It was such a pleasure having you with us. The Oyster Experience was fantastic and received great feedback from guests. The roaming style worked beautifully in the space, and it brought such a nice touch of theatre to the event.

Mickael created an incredible menu and demonstrated the versatility of vegan cuisine. An amazing home experience.
Teighe's spirit journey was a delightful adventure! He curated an exceptional experience, and the flat rate made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for spirit enthusiasts! 🥃🍹🍸
We were very fortunate to have Mimi cater our wedding. From the get-go Mimi was super engaged, flexible and approachable. When it came to the actual weekend Mimi was a force of good-natured efficiency. She kept us aware of any issues that need our input but without adding to the inevitable last-minute wedding stress. She was even up at 4 AM checking on the slow cooking lamb! On the day it was all better than we could have hoped for. Everything was utterly delicious, but also and importantly for us not the standard wedding fare (apart from honey mustard sausages obvs). The Asian pork belly was a particular favourite canape of mine as was the tuna tartare. The lamb for the main was honestly the best I have had, and I know several typically non lamb-eating friends had to do some soul searching afterwards. I would recommend Mimi to anyone for whom food is a priority. She provides something a bit different (and in my experience better) that most catering companies, helping to create an atmosphere that will feel uniquely yours
Chef Aida Khan has put a lot of thought into creating an authentic experience for her clients. My favourite is the lamb shoulder and palak paneer with sourdough naan.
