Every menu is written and cooked by a chef. We keep it healthy, tasty and cost-effective, change the menus with the season and dietary need, and hold the highest quality-assurance standards — wholesome food that’s good enough for every guest, delivered daily when it needs to be.

In the kitchen

Cooked to order, in motion.

Real cooking, from our kitchen and off the coals.

Ribs, glazed and turned over the coals.
Prepped fresh, every service.

Wholesome & special-diet

Special diets, handled with care.

A big part of what we do is feeding the people who need it most — and getting it exactly right, every day.

Care catering

Assisted-living & frail-care

We prepare special-diet meals for assisted-living and frail-care patients, plated and delivered daily around Somerset West.

Every diet

Allergies & medical diets

Allergies, textures and medical diets are catered for as a matter of course, not an afterthought.

Always fresh

Seasonal menus

Menus are drawn up personally and changed according to season and dietary need, at the highest quality-assurance standards.

Health & safety

Food safety, taken seriously.

For hospitals, care homes, schools and industrial clients, how the food is handled matters as much as how it tastes. We treat food safety as a core part of the service, not a box to tick.

Temperature control

Controlled end to end

From freezing and refrigeration through to cooking, holding and serving, temperatures are controlled at every step — including chilled, frozen and ambient food kept at the right temperature in transit.

Traceable

Food samples retained

We keep a food sample from each service, ready for a client or their third-party inspector to collect — proof the food was prepared and handled properly.

Audit-ready

Paperwork kept current

On managed contracts our health-and-safety records are kept up to date from start to finish and available for regular review.

On site

Cover when you need it

When a contract calls for it, we place a food-safety representative and a certified first-aider on site.

How do you handle food safety and hygiene?

Food safety is a core part of our service. We control temperatures across the whole chain — freezing, refrigeration, cooking, holding and serving, including chilled, frozen and ambient food in transit — retain a food sample from each service for inspection, keep our health-and-safety records up to date on managed contracts, and place a food-safety representative and certified first-aider on site when a contract requires it.

Can you cater for special diets and allergies?

Yes. We prepare special-diet meals for assisted-living and frail-care as a matter of course, and cater for allergies, textures and medical diets. Menus are drawn up personally and changed according to season and dietary need.

What kinds of food do you cook?

Chef-plated mains, canapés and finger food, grazing tables and buffets, wholesome everyday meals for canteens and care, plus confectionery, desserts and breakfasts.

Do you use fresh, seasonal ingredients?

Yes. We cook with first-class ingredients and change our menus with the season, keeping food healthy, tasty and cost-effective while holding the highest quality-assurance standards.
