“Customer service has been our business ethos since we started 20 years ago.

“But this is not just for me, it’s for my wonderful team and especially Alison Wood who has worked with me for nearly 15 years and is the most amazing general manager.

"Any business is nothing without a good team behind it and I have a wonderful team.”

Chef de la Maison provides catering for major firms and organisations like Masteroast, Aldermore bank to the Kingsgate Conference Centre. It also does catering for barbecues, garden parties, afternoon teas, meetings and training events.
