I had Miss Mimi cater a Chinese New Year party for 80 people at my home. She did everything from plan the menu, organise the serving dishes to keep on the theme, prep, cook and left my kitchen spotless. And the food was out of this world. She staggered it so it was all hot and fresh and kept a constant mix of dishes she sent out. She did so much research to come up with a wide range of substantial hors d’oeuvres that ranged from vegetarian to quite filling meat dishes. She even went as far as to get the right color orchids to decorate the dishes as well. Nothing was left to chance and she was meticulous about her process. I can’t wait to use her again!

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

Having asked Mimi to cook and prepare my post solo show supper party I felt completely relaxed and trusted her expert choices and decisions in what we might like to eat. We all appeared from the gallery to a feast of food... it was beautifully presented and completely delicious. Her unusual salads, cottage pie and mouth watering brownies vanished. Her professionalism, style and attention to detail was exceptional and Mimi was always there with a smile.

Mimi was such a pleasure to have with us on holiday in France. She had an almost impossible task to cater for thirty-two very demanding people throughout the course of a week. Not only is she an immense amount fun to be around, but she produced some of the most delicious food I have ever tasted. She designed, planned and executed an amazing menu which everyone loved. I could not recommend her more!
