An events kitchen built around the corporate calendar.

From private receptions and brand launches to corporate events and weddings, we manage every aspect of the culinary experience, from menu development and styling to service and on-site coordination.

The Calendar

Corporate first, by a wide margin.

Most bookings come from companies running a launch, a dinner or a standing reception. Private tables and weddings fill in around that, held to the same standard regardless of size.

Corporate Evenings

Product launches, board dinners, standing receptions and anything with a brand behind it. This is where most of the calendar lives, and where the kitchen is built to move fast without dropping the standard: menus signed off days in advance, service staffed to the minute, and a team that has run enough of these to work around a corporate schedule without ever getting in its way.

Private Dinners

A smaller guest list built around a handful of composed plates, shaped entirely by the host's own taste. The kitchen works directly with you on every course, from the first tasting to the final plate, with the same attention to timing and service given to any corporate evening.

Weddings

Less frequent than the rest of the calendar, but never treated as a smaller job. A wedding gets its own menu, its own tasting and the same kitchen discipline as a launch for three hundred, built around a day that only happens once and has to go right the first time.

Working With Us

How a booking moves.

Four steps, whether it's a corporate dinner for forty or a private table for six.

01

Brief

You tell us the date, the venue and what the event needs to achieve, whether that's a product reveal, a board dinner, or simply forty people who need feeding well. We ask about guest count, dietary needs and the shape of the evening before anything else is decided.

02

Menu & Tasting

A menu built specifically for that date and that guest list, never pulled from a standing card. You taste every course with Yanis directly, adjust what needs adjusting, and sign it off before a single ingredient is ordered for the night itself.

03

Delivery

Full setup, staffing and service on the night, run start to finish by the same team that built and tasted the menu with you. Yanis and the team plan the timing at the brief stage and run it themselves on site, coordinating directly with any other suppliers so the whole evening moves on schedule.

04

Debrief

A short follow-up once the last plate is cleared, covering what worked and what you would want to repeat. For clients who book more than once, that history carries forward, so every next event begins already informed by the last.

Full-Service Coverage

One team, the whole event.

The kitchen is the visible part. Everything around it, from staffing to run of show timing, is handled by the same team.

01

Menu & Culinary Direction

Every course designed, tasted and executed by Yanis and the kitchen team, created fresh around the guest list for that event alone.

02

Staffing & Service

Servers, bartenders and kitchen staff briefed and scheduled to the exact shape of the evening, with numbers set precisely to guest count and format.

03

Venue & Logistics

Load-in, kitchen setup and breakdown planned around your venue's own access, power and timing, worked out well in advance.

04

Event Coordination

Yanis and the team coordinate the event directly on site, from vendor timing to guest flow, working alongside any additional suppliers you bring in as one coordinated team.

05

Run-Of-Show Timing

The full evening timed and run by the team on site, from arrival through every course to the last plate cleared, planned from the very first brief.

06

One Point Of Contact

One person from the team on site throughout the event as your single point of contact, handling anything that comes up outside the plan so you never have to chase multiple people.
